What's helping you land a job?

I have been seeing people complaining how referrals,carrer portals,emails,linkedin etc ,none of these are helping them get shortlisted or get an offer. So for people(or their friends)whose organization are hiring or did hire people, which route is being taken. Though I want to know in context of freshers but I think any experience level will be nice as it will help other people too. Thank you.

Please share the things, helping you in the process

What has worked the most for you in getting your job application shortlisted? Please share your ways cause I am literally STRUGGLING Currently I am trying below things 1. Regularly updating naukri (activity level is good but very few HRs directly contact. Few send invites but ghost later on) 2. Sending cold emails to HRs and Engineers (very few refer, but then again status never changes from "in review") 3. Applying on portal directly About me : I have 3 YOE in data engineering working for a top banking client. Stack : PYSPARK, SQL, AWS S3, Hive, Hadoop, Linux scripting, python

I am seeing LinkedIn posts everyday about how people are starting a new position in a different organisation. I've tried LinkedIn job posts, asking for referrals, trying less popular job portals, applying directly in career pages of companies, and changing my resume multiple times. But no luck. Even if the resume gets shortlisted now, there's no further action. I can see multiple people giving seminars on how to switch jobs but everyone has the same things to say. Any suggestions?

I have around 2 years experience and am looking for a switch. But I am finding it very difficult to get interview calls. Has anyone recently switched their jobs? What portals do you use?

I'm typing this out as a way of collecting my thoughts and feeling a bit normal to take myself through the day. Context: I have been working with a small b2b IT firm for the last 1.5 years, and resigned yesterday. This was my first job straight out of MBA and it has sucked the soul out of me to say the least. The notice period is 3 months and I am really unsure how will I survive it considering that I'm already completely drained. I do not want to list out the reasons of how this place has been toxic for me because I also carry a lot of self doubt if it was really the toxicity of the place or my own incapability to handle the work. I do not have any offer in hand, and haven't started a job search either. Just wanted to put this out there to see if people here in the community have been in a similar situation in their professional lives and how did they figure out the uncertainty, was it a good decision for them in retrospect and if they have any tips for me to deal with this better, with less anxiety.

Today, I was thinking about an employee referral email I received from HR, HeyCoach. It made me reflect on how things have changed. Before, as regular people, we often didn't know about job openings or how to apply because they were filled through employee referrals. It makes me wonder how the job search process has evolved. Do you think it's easier now with job sites? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Which are the most used job portals nowadays. I am not receiving any calls from Naukri.com. There has been a significant change in market post Covid. Please suggest where you look for jobs? From where you get most calls from?
