Indeed and SEEK are two of the most recognisable job search websites, but which one is better for finding your next job? Both platforms offer access to thousands of job opportunities, but they work differently and have their own strengths and weaknesses. In this honest comparison, we look at Indeed vs SEEK and what job seekers should consider when deciding where to search for their next role.

Being invited to apply for a job can be a positive sign, but what does it actually mean? Whether the invitation comes from a recruiter, employer, LinkedIn or a recruitment agency, it usually means your experience or profile has caught someone's attention. However, an invitation to apply doesn't guarantee an interview or job offer. Here's what you should know before deciding whether to apply.

Can you hire someone to write your LinkedIn profile? Absolutely. Professional LinkedIn profile writers and career consultants can help you present your experience, skills and achievements in a way that is clear, professional and relevant to the roles you want. A good LinkedIn profile should sound like you, not a generic template, while making it easier for recruiters and potential employers to understand what you can offer.

Should you contact a recruiter before applying for a job? In some situations, speaking with the recruiter can help you understand the role, clarify the requirements and determine whether your experience is a good match. However, contacting a recruiter isn't always necessary, and how you approach them matters. Here's when it's worth making contact and how to do it professionally.

There is no magic number when it comes to resume length. A resume that is too short may leave an employer wondering what you can offer, while one that is too long can lose their attention. The right length depends on your experience, occupation and the information that is most relevant to the job.
