Why is the Current Job Search Process Broken?

Let’s start the segment with two questions: do you want to find a new job, or have you already applied for different jobs on various job portals? With the current approach, your chances of finding a new job are relatively low. Now, the question is, why? Let’s watch the upcoming video and listen to our subject expert, Vikram, as he advises you on how to go about doing a job search and also states the reasons why an ongoing job search is broken, citing supporting facts.

Great! The video is certainly an eye-opener for all job seekers. So, here are some key takeaways from the video:

  • Competition on job portals is too intense, and this significantly reduces your chances of getting a job.
  • You have a higher chance of securing a seat in an IIT or in the UPSC examination than getting a corporate job by applying only through portals. Avoiding the mistakes that Vikram mentions in the video would increase your probability of getting a job.
  • Recruiters are paid to protect the interests of the organisation where they work, and, hence, it is not wise to put all of your hopes on the recruiter to get you a job.
  • Vikram demonstrates how to use blue ocean strategy to effectively optimise your job search.
  • You should also follow the employer’s process of hiring as illustrated by the diagram.

In the next segment, you will learn about the practical application of the Blue Ocean Strategy for job search.
