Where do you look for Jobs?

I don't like my current job in Valuations and I want to leave. My salary leaves much to be desired and there really is no upside potential to the job as bonuses are minimal. I've certainly learned a lot but I'm now looking for another challenge. I've been with a well know firm in the industry (Think Big 4/D&P) for 15 months now and I'm looking to get out. I started with them right out of undergrad.

I've been contacted through LinkedIn by 3 or 4 recruiters over the last couple of months and I always pursue those opportunities but I've yet to get anything other than a phone interview.

I'm not exactly certain what I would like to do but I am considering IB, Equity Research and Corp Strategy (not likely).

Where does everyone go to look for jobs? I've spent sometime on Craigslist, LinkedIn, etc. but does anyone have a better source? I have to sift through a lot of garbage jobs on those places.

bearingEasy, you reply back to the headhunter who has been leaving 20 messages to you on LinkedIn.
A couple were internal recruiters and I've gone back to them but they don't have anything. As for the others they don't have any other positions for people with limited experience, more management roles.
