LinkedIn (Android / iOS)
I could not start this tutorial dedicated to the best applications to look for work without mentioning LinkedIn, the largest professional network on the planet. Today LinkedIn is used by millions of users around the world to offer and / or search for work, as well as to maintain meaningful contacts from a professional point of view.
As soon as you have installed the LinkedIn app on your Android or iOS device, open the application by tapping on apri or by pressing the application icon on the Home of your smartphone / tablet. As soon as you have done this, create a free account using the appropriate form that you will find in front of you.
If you do not know how to create a LinkedIn profile, I invite you to read the guide I have prepared in this regard which, in addition to explaining how to create an account on LinkedIn, will also provide you with practical suggestions on how to use this particular social network. If, on the other hand, you already have a LinkedIn account, enter your login credentials in the appropriate fields and press on Log in.
As soon as you have access to your LinkedIn account, make sure that your profile is completed in all its parts: there must be a photo that reflects your profession, information about yours must be entered training and yours work experiences current and / or previous, etc. To build a “winning” LinkedIn profile, I invite you once again to carefully read my guide on how LinkedIn works. I'm sure you will find it particularly useful.
As soon as you have built a valid LinkedIn profile, you can finally start looking for work! To be able to do this, all you have to do is press on arrow placed at the top left and, from the screen that you will see, press on the option Work (icon of briefcase). After pressing the briefcase icon, you can use the search bar at the top to search for a new job position. Then tap on the search bar, type the type of job you are looking for (eg. Blogger o Web Editor) and start your search by pressing on Search (the magnifying glass icon).
Now all you have to do is scroll through the various results obtained from the search, identify the job offer that most attracts you, tap on it, press the button Nominees and follow the instructions you will see on the screen. I'm sure that if you constantly curate your LinkedIn profile and don't give up looking for work, sooner or later you will find the job you were looking for so much.
You can also use LinkedIn from your browser: just access the main page of the service, log in with your account data and that's it.
Monster (Android/iOS)
One of the most popular portals for users who are constantly looking for a job is Monster. This service is particularly easy to use and, more importantly, it can really offer you the chance to find a job that meets your needs.
After installing Monster on your Android or iOS device, open the app by pressing the button apri or by tapping on the purple icon that appears in the Home of your device. As soon as you have done this, you will be asked to sign up for the service to start looking for work right away. Then presses on the button SUBSCRIBE, fill in all the fields that are proposed to you, confirm your registration by tapping on Subscribe and follow the instructions that will be proposed to you on the screen.
Alternatively, if you prefer, you can log in with Facebook by pressing the appropriate button or, if you already have a Monster account, you can log in by pressing the button Log in and entering username and password.

At the end of the search, all you have to do is scroll through the various job advertisements, find the one that's right for you and press the green button Nominees to send your application immediately.
To increase your chances of success in finding a job, I suggest you attach a curriculum vitae to your profile. To do this, press the icon ≡ present at the top left of the Monster app and presses the icon Curriculum Vitae. Dopodiché fai tap sul pulsating Add new CV and select the source from which you want to upload your CV, for example dropbox o Google Drive.
I remind you that Monster can also be used by those who have not installed the app and / or prefer to act as a PC: just open the browser and connect to the main page of the service.
InfoJobs (Android / iOS)
InfoJobs is another useful service that I recommend to try to anyone who asks me how to look for work on the Internet. To look for a job with InfoJobs, simply install its official app or visit its website, create a free account and start looking, through all the available tools, for the most suitable job advertisements for your professional profile. Would you like to try it too? Then I'll explain how to do it.

Fill in all the required fields by entering the information you are asked for, and follow the instructions that you will see on the screen.

When you are logged in, press the button ≡ and, from the menu that will appear on the left, click on the option Search for offers.
Now all you have to do is press the button Search (the magnifying glass icon) and enter, in the field Search by keyword, the type of job you are looking for (eg. Blogger o Web Editor). To narrow your search and make it more precise, enter the place and category of employment you are looking for in the two appropriate fields and, as soon as you have set all the search parameters, press the button Search for offers.

To increase your chances of success and attract potential employers, complete your CV by selecting the tab CV at the bottom and filling in all the fields on the screen that opens: Experiences, Training, Languages etc.
If you have noticed that you do not have enough space on your device to install the InfoJobs app and / or you prefer to act as a PC, you can also use InfoJobs from your browser by connecting to its official page.
