Question
Ø What do I do if I am not getting good/relevant /interesting
job-alerts ?
|
Answer
Ø
If you are not getting job-alerts of your
liking, then you should “Edit” your job-preferences.
To do this, log onto World-Wide-Jobs.com
and on homepage, click link “REGISTER”. Once on that page, enter your
User ID/Password. Then modify your preferences and click SUBMIT.
However, the best thing for
you would be to first go to the “Job Alert Preview –JAP” page on World-Wide-Jobs.com and then
experiment for a few minutes by entering different job-preferences. After
each entry, click PREVIEW button. Within seconds, you will get to see a full
job-advt matching your preference -
along with its job-alert SMS version. By clicking on next, you will be
able to see many matching job-advts, one after another.
Now, if you are not quite
satisfied with the results, try a different
set of “ Job-preference” and repeat the whole process.
Keep trying again and again, till you are satisfied
with the job-advts and job-alerts. This means, now you have found that “
Ideal” combination of job-preferences
which give you perfectly matching jobs.
Note down this “ Ideal ”
combination of job-preferences on a piece of paper.
Go back to “REGISTER” page,
enter your User ID/Password, and then enter your “Ideal” set of preferences
and click Submit.
From now onwards, you will
get the most relevant job alerts everyday.
