Jobseekers will find relevant jobs from all the companies in Bangalore that have posted their jobs on a job board, their career site or on Facebook including top companies in Bangalore like Infosys, Mphasis, United Breweries, Accenture, IBM and Wipro. MyParichay Connected Jobs™ technology will privately connect them to their first and second level Facebook friends and LinkedIn connections currently working or have worked at these companies in the past. Job seekers can utilize their contacts in those networks to directly "Send a Resume" or use "Start a Conversation" feature to privately start exploring the job with a trusted insider.
MyParichay allows companies to post jobs on the Bangalore Facebook Jobsite and broadcast the jobs on Facebook and LinkedIn and directly reach over 60 million people in prime hiring age on Facebook and 20 million on LinkedIn.
For people who are not actively seeking a job, there are also "Job Alerts" that automatically deliver "Connected" job opportunities to the person's inbox along with the right connections.
"MyParichay™ application does not post any information about the candidates' activity on his Facebook. MyParichay application will help job seekers improve their chance of getting their dream job through their close friends and professional connections with least amount of frustration. Research shows that people have 5 times higher chance of getting a job when they apply through a friend than directly applying," said Ranjan Sinha, Co-founder and Chairman of MyParichay™.

A recent study by Shine.com/ HT Media showed 9 out of 10 of the job seekers on the internet in India are on social networks and 6 out of 10 are only on Facebook.
