BANGALORE: Monster Worldwide, parent company of the online employment solution Monster.com, has announced the launch of SMS-based job search application in India.

 

“The SMS Job Search is a unique and effective way to search for jobs. This application leverages our Magic Search technology,” said Monster India VP (product & technology) Vikas Agarwal. Magic Search technology is a proprietary search engine that allows jobs and resumes to be searched on various parameters through a single keyword text box.

The user can type free text such as “Jobs Brand Manager Delhi” and SMS to 53030 in India. The user will instantly receive the top 3 job matches back on the mobile as an SMS.

Said Agarwal, “The key advantage of our application is that the accuracy of job matching is very high and it is driven entirely by keywords and free text (which is intuitive for SMS users), unlike other applications that require categories and locations to be selected.”

 

This is the second mobile application launched by Monster India. Earlier in 2007, Monster India launched SMS Express (an SMS-based application that helps employers contact jobseekers instantly on mobile, while searching resumes on Monsterindia.com).
