Placing the Power of Job Search in the Hands of the Job Seeker

The following article is an initiative of Indeed India and is intended to create awareness among readers

March 02, 2019 / 10:38 IST

Current job search alternatives in India are largely restricting, with largely paid job postings available online, while vital company information is unavailable, and opportunities being spread out across a number of platforms. Given this situation, most job seekers upload their resume and hope to be contacted directly by recruiters. With Indeed’s holistic job search solution (universal search, reviews, job alerts, search filters, resume upload and more) Indian job seekers can finally take charge and find work that matters to them.

We launched our new brand campaign aiming to connect job seekers with relevant work opportunities. The campaign seeks to garner the attention of new job seekers and introduce the brand to them through targeted advertisements that meet their requirements. With the new creatives, that build on the theme of India, Let's Get to Work, our goal is to continue to create awareness among job seekers while strengthening the brand’s connection with its audience through emotional messaging that strongly ties back to product benefits.

The campaign’s key message centres on envisioning a new India which is marching forward towards employment. Having observed the Indian labour market scenario, we understand the unique perspective and requirements of Indian job seekers and offers customised solutions to help India get to work.

The advertisements have been launched on television and are embedded in videos that job seekers choose to watch various digital platforms such as blogging sites, digital channels, online streaming channels, and so on. With this campaign, Indeed showcases how job search for Indians can be seamless and user-friendly with timely and hyperlocal search options.

Features from Indeed that enable an improved and informed job search that empowers the job seeker:

  • Indeed Universal Search offers job seekers a one-stop destination for job opportunities from a number of sources online, such as company websites, job boards, and so on that they would otherwise have to manually search through.
  • Advanced Search Filters allow job seekers to modify their job search to suit their particular requirements, be it in terms of location, timings, flexibility options, and more.
  • Job Alerts from Indeed ensure that job seeker is able to continue their search even while on the move. As soon as there is a new opening relevant to them, job seekers are informed of it on email or their mobile phones, in real time.
  • In addition, Indeed also hosts company pages on its platform, which offers job seekers to access Indeed’s 100 million ratings and reviews to get detailed and specific insights on each company’s culture and performance.

We have always been an advocate for job seekers, and we continue to work towards our mission of helping people find the right job for themselves. By allowing users to come across job opportunities that are pertinent to their interests, we empower job seekers to tailor their job search to suit their requirements.
