📞 "Call? Inbox? Whatsapp? Hell!"
Once upon a time in the land of job hunting, there lived a peaceful job seeker in India. He uploaded his resume on a job portal one evening, went to sleep, and woke up the next morning with 43 missed calls, 19 WhatsApp messages from unknown numbers, and 6 consultants asking for his DOB, resume, and blood type—twice.
Modern job seekers are bombarded daily with calls, most of which start with:
"Hi, am I speaking to Rahool/Jay Jeep/Akshay Kumar?"
No matter what you say, they will proceed anyway.
Once your resume is out there, it’s passed around faster than office gossip during appraisal season.
Now add this: they're juggling office work, managing home chores, and trying to stay sane. And just when they grab a peaceful moment? Ring ring. It’s someone asking if they’re “immediately joinable” for a job they’ve never heard of.
An average Indian candidate now spends 3-4 hours per week just attending these job-related calls. Out of these, only 10-15% are even remotely relevant to their skills or career goals. The rest? Random job pitches, fake Job offers, or follow-ups for jobs that were declined last week.
Privacy? Ha! That’s a myth. Your number, qualifications, and career dreams are now the public property of every "placement expert" with a data sheet and a SIM card.
So, the next time your phone rings 12 times before breakfast, just remember: you're not jobless, you're “Pink Star Diamond 💎”
