The platform has collaborated with several companies to be their outplacement partner and will drive impacted joiners’ profiles across Shine.com’s extensive network of recruiters and consultants by featuring them for immediate job offers completely free of charge.
Hiring freeze, layoff spree, and lack of funding, the numerous aspects of the infamous startup winter have seized the Indian entrepreneurial ecosystem at an unprecedented stage. However, there are a few companies that are regularly hiring, albeit in a quiet manner. In this temporary yet distressful phase, Shine.com, India’s second-largest job portal, has unveiled a unique program called Startup Winter Initiative. The #RebootwithShine initiative intends to provide a supportive forum for affected employees, assisting them in navigating these difficult times. We have joined up with numerous firms in this attempt as their outplacement partners to give strong help and link them with suitable employers to get another employment.
Mr. Akhil Gupta, CEO of Shine.com, said, “The #RebootwithShine Initiative aims to serve as a supportive platform for the affected employees and help them sail through these pressing times. In fact, we have joined forces with several companies in this endeavor as their outplacement partners to provide robust assistance and connect them with the right employers to secure another job. As a responsible player in this space, we intend to be the perfect recruiting buddy for employees seeking job opportunities and get them back on their feet ASAP.”
Mr. Vijay Nair, VP Marketing, Shine.com, said, “The funding winter has impacted the Indian and international entrepreneurial ecosystem. Shine.com’s Startup Winter Initiative is specifically designed for employees affected by the funding winter. We intend to connect relevant stakeholders so that companies can hire the right talent while candidates can take advantage of immediate job opportunities. Plus, this entire service is free of charge because we just want to be their buddies looking out for them during these trying times.”
There are various benefits candidates can avail of by enrolling in Shine.com’s Startup Winter Initiative. Foremost, they receive an Immediate Joiner Tag after creating a profile. This will highlight their immediate availability to the recruiters and extend their profile visibility. Next, they will be part of an exclusive Section visible to the recruiter, where a candidate’s chances of recruiter actions and job shortlisting increase by up to 75%.
Third, candidates will be able to reach more than 50K recruiters in PAN India. Last but not least, candidates will also get WorkBud Support, under which they’ll receive in-person assistance as per the available/relevant job descriptions, skills, and city fitment through recruiter connect, job match, and shortlist.
With this laudable initiative, Shine.com aims to be the perfect recruitment buddy to all the affected employees and help them get the right jobs ASAP. These are pressing times for laid-off employees, and Shine.com is providing them with the resilient cushioning to fight back and win the battle.
Apart from the employees, Shine.com’s initiative equally profits the recruitment partners. By bringing recruiters, interested candidates, and companies on a single platform, Shine.com is making it more convenient for stakeholders to connect with each other. As the candidates registered on the forum are also available for immediate joining, it creates a win-win situation for both them and recruiters.
