Indian job seekers ranked high in terms of using the internet to find work, with almost half of them finding their most recent posting online, according to a new survey.
Online recruitment eclipsed all other recruitment channels, including direct approaches, newspaper ads and 'word of mouth', a survey conducted by Kelly Services, a Fortune 500 company offering staffing solutions, said.
As per the survey, 40 per cent respondents found their most recent job online. Twenty-two per cent found job as result of being directly approached by an employer, 13 per cent through word of mouth, nine per cent from newspapers and eight per cent by directly approaching an employer, it said.
Online recruitment was rated the preferred way to find a job, with 78 per cent satisfied with the outcome compared to 54 per cent who opted for the traditional methods.
According to the survey, only eight per cent believe that level of education is the best indicator of job suitability, 24 per cent doubted whether their CVs present them in the best possible way and 14 per cent were not sure whether they have performed well in job interviews.
The survey sought the views of 115,000 people in 33 countries, including 3,000 from India on various topics, including recruitment.
