Recession has made it tough for the unemployed to find a suitable job for them. The best way is to make your resume easily searchable for the recruiters so that you can get more and relevant calls. Here are few simple tips which can make your profile or resume within the reach of such recruitment agencies.
Regularly edit your profile on the job sites like naukri.com, jobsahead.com, monster.com or careerbuilder.com. Let it be any job site, just edit your profile a bit and save it again. Here your edit is not that important, but this will reset the save date on the database making it a latest resume and a latest profile every time you save it. Thus, it boosts the ranking for your profile when recruiters search for candidates. Also, let your profile have all important keywords. Yes, optimize your profile as well.
Update your status on social networking sites like LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. Let the people know that you are looking for a job. You can provide a link to your profile too in the status message. If you feel right, you can update your IM status messages as well.
Google launched the profile page. Update it with the most relevant keywords which you feel the recruiters use and you want them to find you or your profile.
Use Twitter search and try to find out users whom you feel will be helpful in finding you a job or they themselves are recruiters and follow them and read their updates. May be they can post a job ad or they may also follow you.
Join relevant groups in sites like LinkedIn and Facebook and participate in discussions. Just try to make your presence felt in such groups.
