Each person aims to get good job after completing their education. After graduation

various sources through which individual can get information about employment and can
move ahead in their career (Figgou, 2020). These are described as below:

This is most popular networking sites that is mostly used by job seekers and
employers both. This is the site that gives information about company, its potential, co-
workers potential and working areas. By this way person can review own potential against
the vacant post and can apply for suitable job (Westat–Lebanon, 2020).
Advantage
 This is the network site that creates more networking opportunities for users. By using
this website employers can evaluate ability of candidates and can hire the best and
deserving candidate in organisation.
 LinkedIn gives new updates to all users and categorise the information according to
industry hence applicant can easily apply in relevant industry. By using this
application individual can share their experiences and advices to sectors to gain more
opportunities (Azad,Ali and Sahidullah, 2020).
 Profile update option is another great advantage of this LinkedIn application or source
as potential candidates can view the requirements of professionals and they can
update their profile accordingly so that more employers can make contact with them.
Individual can get virtual idea about profile making on this site and individual can

update own profile accordingly. This would help in adding more information about
background of previous job and experience as well.
 This works as search tool as individual can get information about interviewers, hiring
process etc. That becomes easy to get suitable job (Alagappan, 2020).
Disadvantage
 User who is using first time this LinkedIn site face many issues, profile setting for the
first time is quite difficult as many components are involved into it. Individual must
have profile and profile strength. User need to spend too much time to create a
professional profile. Hence this is very time consuming process and it is difficult to
use for beginners.
 As there are many content available hence it sometimes decrease interest of others on
their LinkedIn profile. If person is sharing too much information then no one will take
interest into it. Employer may feel frustrated if they found user with overloaded
content (Haenggli and Hirschi, 2020).
Glassdoor
User who is using that site have option to submit their feedback. Thisis the site that
gives information related to interview questions, salaries etc. Individual can gain detail about
benefit of employee in particular company, culture of firm etc.
Advantage
 One of the main advantage is using this application is that it gives all detail about
questions that would be asked by employer in interview round. Employers post their
previous interview round to indicate others about the process of recruitment. User can
not comment on this interview round but can get idea about entire process. There is
detail about criteria of selection (Alagappan, 2020).
 GlassDoor is the site on which job seeker can get information about salaries offered
by employer. Salaries are highly depended upon the experience of person, abilities
and educational background. Individual can add these elements as base to assume
how much salary will be offered by employer to them in particular industry.
 Position review is another benefit of using Glassdoor site, In this site person can get
review of employers about particular post. That means they share their expectation
with candidate who is going to apply for particular vacant post. They share the4ri own
