What are “Word of Mouth” job postings?
We are a tightly knit community, and personal contacts mean a lot, especially in the area of jobs and recruiting. Akhtaboot is trying to mirror the way our society naturally works. In the real world, if a company is looking for a position to fill, they first look to people they know and trust and ask them “do you know anyone who might be right for this job?”. This is exactly what a “Word of Mouth” posting is, the job posting travels through the company’s network of contacts and Akhtaboot shows the job opportunity to the relevant people within the company’s vast network. Therefore, the more people you connect to, the more word of mouth job postings you will receive.
