 Portal for job seekers

THE Net has a lot of sites made by the residents from the City Beautiful. The portal, topjoboptions.com, would be the latest to join the bandwagon. This yet-to-be-launched portal focuses on the job options in and around Chandigarh and has effective presence in Delhi too.

During the test phase, the portal got 5700-odd hits. Major objective of topjoboptions.com is to let the job aspirants and employers exchange information in a confidential manner. It provides job aspirants a platform to search for jobs, store or float professional particulars and communicate with the employers online. Employers can advertise vacancies, scan the profiles of talented persons, communicate to suitable candidates or avail turnkey recruitment solutions. The surfer can also get career counselling, professional know-how and a glimpse of latest goods and gadgets of corporate attire and desire.

Some top corporate houses are already on the portal’s list. The portal has been categorised broadly into three segments — Services for aspirants, Important information (mis-spelt imformation) for you and Our corporate services.

The portal is a part of OlympusMCS, a management consultancy group, providing human resource solutions to corporate clients and job aspirants. — TNS
