Top Apps for Finding a Job

While the Internet has certainly made it easier for job hunters to locate potential positions, the ability to take the world with you on your smart phone can increase your chances of being hired. As job listings are pushed to you via alert systems, you may find you get a leg up on desired employment and move your resume to the top of any employer’s list. If you’re on the go, pounding the pavement to find work, make sure you have the following applications installed to guide you.

LinkedIn: Based on the popular business social network, this free application links to your present account and your connections. Use the app as you would when browsing their main site – check connections for job openings and post to your subscribed groups. Have updates pushed to your phone while you’re out on a search, too.

CareerBuilder.com App: Built to function like the main site, this app allows you to search geographically for positions. Its location ability zeroes in on where you are and pulls up what is available easily, with detail descriptions and contact information.

Echofon (or a comparable Twitter app): If you’re an avid smart phone user, chances are you are set up to tweet and be tweeted. Having access to Twitter can help your job, too, if you sign on to a service like Tweet My Jobs or a similar site to receive regular notifications in your field.

Aajira.com is changing the conventional method of employment by assisting, jobseekers to apply for the right jobs while facilitating the companies to receive qualified job applicants.
