Why you are not getting responses to your job applications - part 2
Couple of days back, we saw how fake resumes affect your chances of getting a job. You can read Part 1 of this article here. The second reason why you may not be getting responses is that there are a lot of Fake job postings!.
Bad news - Many of the job postings are fake!
Surprised? At least now you know. The truth is, for some unscrupulous companies, this is an easy way to collect resumes and contact information. They advertise a few nonexistent jobs and collect all the responding candidate resumes and their personal details. They then spam you later on or sell your contact information to the highest bidder - who in turn will spam you.
Good news - There are still good guys around
There are still a lot of genuine job postings by both genuine placement agencies and direct employers. You just need to find out which ones are genuine.
Solution - Check out the credentials
Look at the websites of the recruitment companies, ask your friends, call the recruitment company, write to their support addresses - basically check out the credentials of the recruitment company before you apply. If you are a candidate with less than, say, 5 years of experience, don’t stop applying. So what if a few more recruiters have your cv? It will only do you good. Just adjust your expectations and understand that you may not get responses from many of them - that way you will not be disappointed.
