Job Search Shortcut - basic, no-nonsense job search suggestions (along with links to a lot of pay services or stuff you have to register for - but you can easily ignore that)
OrgMarketing.com - resource focused on non-profit fundraising online, but full of perspectives that are also useful in a broader communications/job-search context.
Wall Street Journal and New York Times career sections offer a steady stream of job-search tales and tips - and their online classifieds occasionally turn up DC-area jobs we don't see advertised/posted elsewhere.
Still getting the hang of Twitter? We recommend the TweetGrid dashboard and search tool to help you understand and expand Twitter's utility. We see a handful of jobs referenced and passed around on Twitter of late - even some first generation offerings directly from HR folks.

Note: you can follow DJPA+CJ on Twitter under username barnesgordon (usually just a preview of what's coming up a couple times a week).
