Job Portals

An online platform that connects job seekers with employers is called a job portal. It helps people search for job openings, submit resumes, and apply for positions across different industries and locations.

Visit the job portal’s website, and once you’re on the homepage, look for the “Sign Up” or “Register” button. After clicking, provide your name, email, and password. You might also need to upload your resume and complete your profile to get personalized job recommendations.

Most job sites can be utilized without any cost to job seekers; however, sometimes the site will offer paid premium features such as resume assistance, profile enhancements, or priority listing, which also may include a fee.

Usually job boards are completely free for job seekers.  In some cases a job board will offer both free and paid options for job seekers. Free options will provide job seekers with basic job listings while a paid option would offer services such as resume writing, enhancement of your profile to become attractive to prospective employers, or actively “bumping” to the top of the job listings.

To look for a job opportunity, you would use the search bar that prompts you to enter a keyword, job title, or employer. Many job posts initiate a filter for your search based on location, industry, experiences, or pay/salary range.

Improving your profile consists of making sure every section is filled out (personal details, work experience, education, skills, certifications) and including a professional photo. You should also remember to update your profile and resume as necessary based on your most recent accomplishments and experience.

Typically, job portals will have an "Account Settings" section on the job portal page, and find an option to "Close" or "Deactivate" your job portal account. There will be instructions to follow through on the account deactivation. Some job portals may require you to contact customer support to authenticate account and/or job portal closure.

To search for job opportunities, you would search for a keyword, job title, or employer directly in the search bar the job site typically contains. Many job posts would set off a filter for your search based on location, industry, experiences, or pay/salary range. After you initiate those filters you can now use them to get the most filtered job opportunities.
