All the jobs available on a site can usually be searched for by area, type, and salary. This means less time is wasted reading through adverts that are of no relevance to you, as all the results are matched to your choices.
(ii) Stored CV
Most job sites will allow you to store your CV with them. This means that when you wish to apply for a job, there is no need to keep re-sending your information. The copy of the CV held by the job site is automatically sent during an application, and you can update it at any point.
A stored CV also means that companies actively looking for people with your particular skills can view your employment and qualification details and invite you to apply without you having to search for them.
(iii) Personal
One disadvantage of applying for a job online is that in some cases it can make your response seem less personal.
An application sent through the post has a physical presence, which can make it stand out from emails. However, as online applications become more popular, there is much less of a difference. Not only that, but it is in an employers interest to look carefully at all CV’s
How to Apply - Registration
Most job sites allow anybody to freely browse their vacancies, but most sites require you to register your details before you can apply through them.
Registration involves entering your details so they are ready to be forwarded to any employers you wish to make applications to. After registration you can send a CV to be stored on the job site, this CV is then used for any future applications you make.
