10 Job Portals Connecting Job Seekers & Employers Who are Hiring Despite COVID-19
Many state governments and private organizations have launched free job portals which will help employers and workers connect.
The pandemic has caused many businesses to downsize or shut down completely, leaving lakhs of people across the country, without jobs. Even though Unlock 3.0 is underway, several businesses and factory owners are unable to start work because most of the workforce migrated away from the city to their hometowns or villages. To bridge this gap, many state governments, and private organizations have launched free job portals which will help employers and workers connect.
Here are 10 job portals that can be accessed to apply for work:
MahaJobs Portal
