Hi there!

I have been vigorously and meticulously applying for overseas architecture jobs overseas but to no avail.

It's frustrating because I never hear back from the HR. I'm a female pakistani architect with 11 years of work experience and since covid I have been freelancing on a popular freelance platform.

What does one have to do be noticed?

Does anyone even go to the trouble of visas for architects when they could hire local? Has the freelancing built up a cool portfolio or is it just a signal of not finding a full-time job? Sorry to be negative, but standing out usually requires a history of standing out, not just finding ways to get noticed.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you
