Job alerts can be just an SMS away

If you are busy, very pre-occupied with work or are usually out of the office, you may not have the luxury of time to check your emails often. And yet, you are constantly looking out for new job opportunities that may come your way. So what are you to do, if you do not have immediate access to your emails outside the office?

You can do what one of my friends, Diana, did. She’s a long-time JobStreet.com member but recently, she was persuaded to try our SMS Alert service.

What we do with this service – well, actually, this is one of the things we can do with this service – is to deliver short messages to her by SMS as soon as a job appears on JobStreet.com that matches closely to her requirements. If you think that we may be sending you too many text messages, this can always be controlled through your personal settings.

What other sort of messages can JobStreet.com send to our subscribing members? Apart from the job alerts, we can also message you whenever you are short-listed after a job application. It will keep you readily informed. In fact, employers can also inform you of interviews by SMS. While letters can be lost in the post for various reasons, JobStreet SMS Alert service will ensure that you will be informed through your mobile phone.

By the way, this is a premium service, meaning that you’ll be required to pay in order to use it. Need more information on how you can use the JobStreet SMS Alert to your advantage when searching for your next job? Just click on Malaysia, Singapore or the Philippines, depending on where you are.
