Are these three sentences all good?

He's looking around for a new job.

He visits several places to find a job.

He's looking for a job here and there.

Are they all good? And could you recommend another sentences and expressions?

  

Top answer

We usually limit it to He's looking for a job or He's looking for a new job if he already has one. The expression 'visits places' doesn't fit, nor does 'here and there'. As for other expressions, there's "job hunting": He's doing some job hunting ( [these days / lately] ).

  • More formally, we say looking for employment instead of looking for a job .
