You can also change the location of your search on your profile too, to make sure that your job alert emails are for the right location! You can do that by clicking "My Info" and editing the location information next to your picture

Hi Michael, You can do a job search in your area and change the radius of jobs on the "Jobs" page. 1.Double click on the “Jobs” tab at the top of the page 2.Enter a job into the search field that says “Position” 3.Click on the blue button to search for that position in your area 4.Choose your "distance within" to desired distance 5.Once the list is up, click on the title of any you are interested in to apply.

Hope this helps.
