Nowadays, finding the "dream job" or even just any
decent job can be tough. And while competition for limited professional
high-paying corporate jobs is intense, there's now a great number of mobile job
search apps that can greatly help you achieve your future "work
goals."
So don't lose hope and try one of these job search apps below.
Monster is like the simplified version of LinkedIn/LinkedIn Jobs
but without the people network. The app lets you search for job leads, track
your job applications, update your resumé (no online portfolio like LinkedIn),
receive messages (some legit and some are not), and tweak your settings.
The best advice is to make sure that your resumé is current and
updated on all of your mobile job apps. This way, you are sure that you're
sending out the same content whenever you're blasting an Easy Apply resumé from
whichever app you are on.
The Monster app is available for iOS and Android users.
This app doesn't come with all the bells and whistles you would
see in other apps like LinkedIn, but since Indeed is a job lead aggregator,
you'll probably find many of the same job leads here that you'd find on the
other job search apps.
Once you update your resumé and set up your job search agents
(via the web interface), you'll be taken to a ton of job leads under
"Recommended Jobs" from the app's home screen.
You can download the app for iOS and Android.
The app for LinkedIn is the simplified version of LinkedIn.com.
All of the base components appear at the bottom of the app's screen -- Home, My
Network, Messaging, Notifications, and Me. The Home screen of the app looks
similar to Facebook's news feed, and sometimes a job posting or two.
And similar to the features offered in the LinkedIn website, the
app allows you to update your resume, add companies you've previously worked
with, add contacts, co-workers, former supervisors, and so on. Besides the
social and labor component, it also shows us loads of news related to your work
interest. If you want to be updated, all you have to do is consult the app's
main page.
The app is available for iOS and Android.
As versatile as the LinkedIn app may be, LinkedIn Jobs is
somewhat bare bones. The app's home screen also functions as a place where you
can do a search. The only searching parameters you can do here is the "Job
title or keyword" and "Location." It'll default to whatever
location you have set as yours from your LinkedIn member account.
One of the best features of this app is the Easy Apply, which
lets you use your LinkedIn profile to quickly apply for a position instead of
having to fill out those dreadful online Applicant Tracking System job
applications. However, to make sure that your job application doesn't disappear
elsewhere, you still need to use the main LinkedIn app to contact those
companies you would like to pursue your application with.
Download the app for iOS and Android.
With the Glassdoor job search app, you can easily find the job
you really love and get hired. It provides access to the latest job listings
from companies hiring right now, and you'll have an inside look at company
reviews, salaries, benefits, and office photos shared by those who know the
company best -- the employees. It also has a tool called Know Your Worth, which
can help you determine how your market value has trended over time, how your
market value compares to typical workers in the same field, and also plot your
current base pay.
With Glassdoor, you can tap into the world's most comprehensive
career community to search job openings, discover your earning potential, and
see what it's really like to work at thousands of companies worldwide.
The app is available for iOS and Android users.
