Other good places to look for work include the jobs page at awn.com, the new jobs page at Cartoon Brew, and the VFX jobs page at Facebook.  Finally, don't forget the power of word of mouth. Your animator friends and colleagues are always the best place to start when looking for vacancies. Most companies like to hire on an internal recommendation - if an existing staff member can vouch for the newbie, then everyone starts to relax and feel confident.
