This is my second last quarter for this degree. I started job hunting for around 2 months. There are a lot more platforms that we can use than I expected.
Big Platforms
LinkedIn, a really nice platform to connect to professionals and HRs, many companies’ job posts are redirected back to companies’ career web pages. Some companies’ application process is through LinkedIn.
Indeed, I have used it for finding an intern. The application process is a lot like LinkedIn without networking features.
Glassdoor, I did not use their job search features before. Company-related info is super helpful, like average base salary, company working experience, etc.
Smaller Platforms
Handshake, I found this platform through OSU career emails. After building up a personal profile, company recruiters will send platform mails to you for opportunities. It also contains a lot of events opportunities.
RippleMatch, this platform is really easy to use. After filling out all personal info, the platform will push matched positions to your dashboard, easy application process, and someone from the platform will follow up with your applications. I got several OAs through this platform, applications are processed.
Big Company Career Page
For some big companies, like Google, Facebook, etc, all positions will be filled really quickly. I recommend checking on their new positions regularly for early application.
These are all my personal feelings. Please feel free to share any resources you use.
