Use of Internet in the Job Search Process: Gender Perspective

Keywords:
job search activities, the Internet, young job seekers, job search intensity, gender-based differences in behaviour of job seekers

Abstract:
Bearing in mind the slowdown of the global economy and modest potential for job creation, job seekers are in a vulnerable position. This particularly applies to the young people who are looking for the first employment. That has led to a growing interest in analyzing the ways in which candidates look for a job, and effectiveness of certain tools. In the last fifteen years, the Internet has been widely accepted as a job search tool. Therefore, the authors have placed special emphasis on the Internet job search activities of young people in Serbia and possible gender based differences. The results have shown that there are no gender-based differences in behaviour of young job seekers. In addition, it can be concluded that the Internet job search activities are very intensive and recognized as one of the main job search tools, with the international trends in behaviour of job seekers.
