Dear sir,
HR professionals, how do you go about fulfilling the requirement for manpower? For the past three months, I have been searching for a job but have not yet received any call letters. I have uploaded my resume on Monster and Naukri. If there are any other popular websites, please inform me.
Could you please advise me on how to search for a job? Which websites do HR professionals mostly refer to when in need of manpower? Your help is greatly appreciated.
Please assist me.
Thank you.

Dear Vasudee,
You seem fresher from your post given above. Well, some portals are free for candidates but not for employers, and it is not the only platform to search for candidates. You need to check the local newspaper for new employment opportunities.
Another way is to contact a local job placement consultancy. They charge the employer, not the candidate. So, contact them and inquire whether there are any suitable requirements according to your job profile.
Keep in touch with your seniors and other classmates who are already employed. Stay updated with the latest knowledge and technology related to your educational domains.
Make your resume effective so that recruiters can be impressed and call you for a personal interview.
For more assistance, feel free to share your queries.

Hi,
As per my knowledge, you need to update your profile on portals every week. Only then will your resume gain much attention. I also got placed through job portals. So don't lose hope. Have a happy day ahead.

Hi Vasudeee,
My only advice is not to limit yourself to various portals. Use newspapers, trade magazines, journals, etc. Network, Network, Network as much as you can; there is no substitute for face-to-face contact to sell yourself. Put the word out to friends, family, and neighbors; in fact, to anyone who will listen. Don't be shy!! Finally, send your resume directly to employers, whether they have advertised vacancies or not. (There IS something called the Un-advertised Job Market!!) A word of caution though: When you send your resume, it should reflect the organization that you are applying to. You MUST research the organization and tweak your resume accordingly. A common mistake that job hunters make is to send a standard resume to all. By tweaking your resume, you will be seen to be a good fit. Your resume should be no longer than two pages, should contain ZERO errors in very good grammar and language, NO slang, or abbreviated words. Follow the above and be amazed at the calls for an interview.
But it does not end there, in fact, the call to the interview is the START. Be prepared for the interview: Research the company; the internet allows you to do this easily. Find out everything about the company, the industry, their markets, and their competition. Let the interviewer know that YOU know. Be well-dressed (conservatively). Be on time. Maintain eye contact. Any good interviewer will end by asking if you have any questions; make sure you do have at least two, but NEVER about Pay, Holidays, etc. Be professional; your mindset should be "I OWN THIS JOB, IT IS MINE."
Hope the above helps,
