Just like you can order food and find love through an app, a job search is no different. You can search for your dream job on the go.
If you are unemployed and are tired of going through newspaper listings, office door to door or being confined to desktops websites in the name of job hunting, this post is for you.
Here are three must-have apps that can give job seekers a boost and perhaps connect them to their future employers or dream jobs:
1.Linkedin
This is where employers and recruiters hangout.
It is the most preferred app because 94 per cent of recruiters use LinkedIn as a major sourcing tool to find candidates to present to their client companies seeking top-tier talent.
With customisable search tools, job alerts and company information, this easy-to-use free app will give you all the information you need to apply and connect with the right contacts.
According to Linkedin, applicants who apply for jobs on the first day after being posted are 10 per cent more likely to get hired.
So make sure you are among the first applicants of any job you're interested in.
2.Brighter Monday
Brighter Monday offers access to thousands of job listings matched to your skills, role, experience and location.
This app makes it easier and faster for job seekers to find jobs as you will be able to search for the available jobs on the go and apply for them.
All you need is to create a profile showing your skills, education and experience to potential employers.
With Brighter Monday, you can also choose to get notifications as soon as jobs matching your preference are listed, hence increasing your chances of being shortlisted.
3.Ogaan
What makes this app unique is the fact that it not only connects employers and prospective employees globally, but it also ensures the types of vacancies it presents are inclusive of both the formal and informal openings.
