My job hunting experience? I just started searching for a job on Seek and Indeed. These sites claim that they are the best job websites. I applied for couple of jobs advertised on these web sites but I haven't got an job response or interview invitation. In my view these websites are advertising not real jobs to some extend in order to collect the applicants information for some future jobs in advance. Based on current job market and industry, they predict the future job openings and advertise them (without any real job specifications) using some random keywords like "Software engineer", "Financial consultant", etc. Once they received dozens of applications, they started sending them emails or calling them to collect more information, from time to time. This is very weird and very annoying for all of us because we have been spending time filling out application forms which are not useful to anyone but only to these web sites. These websites are using the applicant data for marketing purposes. There is only one solution to avoid this. We should be more careful with job advertisements and apply to only jobs that are advertise with proper employer name and its contact details. In such cases online job search engines don't have to collect extra information of applicants as they are directly linked with the employer. Please correct my English mistakes. I am also practicing my writing skills on different online forums but I am not sure whether it is improving.

I hope this helped! Your most common mistake is that you tend to repeat words. Try using a thesaurus if you find yourself repeating words. Good luck!
