Job hunting is one of life's most stressful activities — and simply sending out your resume to employers can feel like you are throwing paper into a black hole.

But luckily there are now more ways than ever to snag a job in non-traditional ways. There are apps and online services that will help you get a free lunch with employers, show your personality, and turn your work history into a beautiful infographic.

There's even a way to snag a four-hour freelance job for fast cash, or a project-based internship that doesn't require getting coffee.

Here are 13 high-tech tools to help you land your next job:

ResumUp turns your resume into a beautiful infographic.

ResumUp gives you an easy template to turn your resume into a compelling infographic. Though this is probably more useful as a second page of your resume than as a replacement, it can be particularly useful in helping those who haven't had a straight career path express their work history.

Price: Free, with premium options (Web)



Speedlancer gets you a remote job you can complete in four hours.

Speedlancer is all about getting you a small freelance job, now, that you get done in four hours. It's perfect if you need some quick cash and includes things like design, writing, and data entry.

It doesn't require any haggling or interviewing, so you can just do the job and get paid. And all of it is remote.

Price: Free (Web)



Lunchcruit gets you a free lunch with a potential employer.

Lunchcruit lets you grab a “zero-commitment” lunch with a company you might be interested in working at. You fill out a short application form and then schedule a time to drop by for a free lunch and chat session. Right now, it’s mostly centered around the San Francisco tech industry.
