I got a referral for one job role at Infosys, but the job role shown on the portal is different. There’s another role listed instead. Will my application be rejected because of this?

I've seen this a few times and I can't tell if it's because they're using AI in a weird way or because one of the listings is a scam.

It might get you some visibility, even if not for the right reason, and if you are a good fit thst could be a good thing. I don't think any recruiter will pull your application for such an issue.

Thst said, I suggest that you reach out to whomever gave the referral, let them know of the issue (perhaps with a screenshot), and ask if anything can be done on theor end. Don't assume that they referred on the wrong job, just ask for help fixing the issue.

Thank you for your suggestion.

Just to share an update—I contacted the employee who referred me and shared the screenshot of the application status. He explained that the different job role shown in the portal is system-generated and can happen during the referral process.

My application status is currently showing “Held for Future Requirement” on the portal. He mentioned that this does not mean the application has been rejected. According to him, it means my profile has been retained and may be considered if a suitable requirement matching my profile comes up, and I may receive an email or a call in the future.

For now, I’ll wait and continue applying for other opportunities as well. Thank you again for your guidance!

hey , do you need any help in finding jobs?

Do companies sometimes offer "gifts of appreciation" if you're not selected for a merit increase? My manager randomly called me to let me know I was chosen for the "gift" this year bc of my "hard work & dedication", except now I'm learning other colleagues are receiving actual merits.
I mean it's possible that I may receive a merit, but I feel like I won't considering my manager never brought it up & the dept update made it sound like those receiving it should know by now.

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
