Question:
Are there jobsites where one can find software testing jobs?

Answer:
Yes, there are. There are many job sites on the internet where you can search for and find software testing jobs of all sorts.

They list software testing IT jobs, video game testing, internet application testing, network testing, client-server and cloud testing, SAAS testing positions, and the list goes on and on. I list some of the places to get started in my Jobs section, but here is a list to get you started:

And if you prefer to be your own boss yet work as a QA Tester, check out:
Go Freelance
Elance
Guru

You can search all of these sites by keyword. Your keyword selections and combinations will produce slightly varying results, but here are some keywords to incorporate:
QA
Quality Assurance
Software Tester
Software Testing
QA Engineer
QA Analyst
Testing Jobs

You should try to interchange "QA" and "Quality Assurance" with other suffixes. The keywords you add after will bring up different results. You can also throw "IT" or other computer specialty into the mix and see what you get.

The geographic selection you make will also greatly affect your search results. Although software development (and testing) occurs worldwide, I don’t know of any open position in Des Moines, Iowa. That’s not to say they don’t exist, just that I have not seen them on any job board in the past few years. Bentonville, Arkansas has been a hotbed of late, as well as Connecticut, New York, Texas, Minnesota, Illinois, and New Jersey.

In addition to the sites above, you can search Google for something like "QA Job Sites" or "QA Job Listings". Searches like that will bring up a long list of both pay and free job listing boards.

Good luck with your search!
