Looking for a job these days can be done in various ways. Even if you're sticking to online methods, you'll be presented with a variety of choices as well. Aside from the big names like JobStreet.com, relatively new players that advertise jobs in specific regions and areas of the country have also carved their niche by attracting jobseekers more interested in establishing their careers outside Metro Manila.
But before you open a new browser window and search for these websites, allow us to present our case. Here are five reasons going with JobStreet.com instead of your local job site is still the wiser decision:
We have more jobs than competitors.
Our specific job database for specific major cities and provinces outside Metro Manila still contain more job listings compared to job portals catering only to particular areas. Not only that, we have jobs coming from the Top 100 Companies in the Philippines. Whether you want a career in the largest and most admired companies like McDonalds, BPI, Coca-Cola FEMSA, Pepsi Cola, Security Bank, and Digitel/Sun Cellular or you are searching for available entry level positions or opportunities in the managerial level, our offerings are extensive. We are proud to say that JobStreet.com delivers both quantity and quality when it comes to provincial jobs.
Our job ads go beyond expectations.
When you click on any of our job ads, you get all the information you need regarding the employment opportunity you are interested in. You do not get listings that make you scratch your head because of incomprehensible and incomplete information. Our job ads not only tell you what jobs are available; they educate you on the company and the position. We provide you pertinent information such as salary and benefits information, a background on the company, and even pictures of the company's offices and employees. You can now say goodbye to pitching for a job in the dark.
