The recession has taken an evident toll on the Indian job markets where the number of lay-offs and cut-offs are growing by the day.

Yes, the same old buddy, LinkedIn. Ever since its incorporation in 2002, and the digitalization of job search, LinkedIn has been growing exponentially in the job search market. But a common complaint about LinkedIn is that the competition for an opening is much larger than it used to be before.
If you’re someone who never gets a reply from the HR even after weeks of applying to a role, then follow the company on LinkedIn and connect with the regional HR who might be responsible for the recruitment process and drop in a message to them with a brief self introduction and your resume/CV for their reference.
Forget your Instagram and twitter, and invest more time on LinkedIn. Post something relevant to your domain or field everyday, comment and repost something from your dream company’s LinkedIn, and make sure to post a brief introduction about yourself and how you’re actively looking for a role in your relevant domain. Use some of the most used and trending hashtags on your profile and your post to gather more attention from any potential employer looking for candidates.
