Online jobseeking platforms

Authors: Pinto, Ana Madalena da Silva;

Online jobseeking platforms

Abstract

utilização de plataformas de procura de emprego "online" são uma prática corrente. No entanto, pouca investigação foi realizada até ao momento sobre o que as impulsiona, para que são necessárias, assim como qual a maneira que influenciam o sucesso de indivíduos que se encontram à procura de emprego. Esta dissertação inclui um estudo sobre os vários aspetos que podem afetar o sucesso na procura de emprego e que dizem respeito às plataformas de procura de emprego "online", tendo como objetivo investigar como a utilização de plataformas de procura de emprego "online" influencia o sucesso dessa procura de emprego, assim como a maneira que esse sucesso é influenciado pela facilidade de utilização dos sites. Estes aspetos foram investigados através de um questionário sobre hábitos de procura de emprego, preenchido por 73 participantes, e analisado para se poder apurar conclusões sobre a amostra e sobre o mundo em geral. Devido à natureza da amostra, foi também adotada uma abordagem mais qualitativa, em que foram consideradas respostas fornecidas a uma pergunta aberta. Os participantes do questionário foram classificados em três tipos: generalistas, específicos e jovens. De seguida, estes participantes foram analisados mais a fundo para obter uma ideia mais precisa dos seus hábitos no que diz respeito à procura de emprego e respetivo sucesso. Foi concluído que um nível de formação mais elevado pode levar ao sucesso na procura de emprego. A utilização de plataformas de procura de emprego "online" também influencia o sucesso de uma procura, neste caso de forma positiva.

Online jobseeking platforms are now widespread, but little research has been done so far on what drives them, what they are required for and what their success depends on, as well as how they influence the success of individual jobseekers. This dissertation includes a study on various aspects that potentially affect jobseeking success and pertain to online jobseeking platforms. This dissertation aims to investigate how the use of jobseeking platforms impacts the success of a job search, as well as how the success of that job search is affected by a site’s usability. These aspects were investigated through a jobseeking habits survey answered by 73 participants and analysed to draw conclusions on the sample and wider world. Due to the nature of the sample, a more qualitative approach was also taken, with individual respondents’ answers to an open-ended question also taken into account. The survey respondents were classified into three types: generalist users, specific users and youthful users, and further analysed to obtain a more accurate idea of their jobseeking habits and subsequent success. It was concluded that a higher educational level can be a strong precursor to job search success. Moreover, the use of jobseeking platforms does, in fact, impact the success of a job search, in this case positively.
