Gone are the days when students of Delhi University were satisfied with the theoretical learning gained through slaving over books during their time at college. College is now about expanding one's horizons and imbibing soft skills to enhance character (and resumes!). SearchMyCampus recognized the desire for work experience and created a campus based classifieds platform that students can use to obtain this. Students are always on the lookout for jobs to get some work experience as they study, and of course, earn a little additional pocket money. SearchMyCampus gives them the option to upload their resumes and describe their requirements to employers for fresher jobs, part time jobs, internships and even volunteer work. Employers from a number of industries visit the website to view these resumes and select students that meet their requirements. Apart from companies that hire freshers on a regular basis, students on SearchMyCampus are likely to find employers that have a temporary need for manpower or have only a limited number of openings. Thus they can get access to employers that they would not meet through placement consultants or campus hiring. SearchMyCampus has had openings listed by large organizations like Microsoft, KFC, UTV, BigAdda, and Subway among others. There have also been several smaller organizations offering some very interesting profiles on the website. SearchMyCampus also provides students with a platform that they can use to get support for more enterprising ventures. Several students advertise their services as tutors, language coaches, music teachers, translators, writers, and even software designers and developers on a freelance basis. This gives them the opportunity to get some work experience without compromising on the flexibility of working from home and at their own convenience. Delhi University students have found their own ways of using the website to express their innovation and creativity. There have been advertisements from students looking to make a movie and even start their own bands. Students are proactively using the website to find other students from their campus area to support them in their ventures. SearchMyCampus offers a win-win situation for both employers and students. While students can get the work experience to enhance their character and resume, employers can also hire more effectively through SearchMyCampus. The website's campus based filtration allows employers to recruit students from specific universities that train students in the skills that these organizations need. Access to part time manpower means they can get their simpler functions done by students at a lower cost rather than hiring full time staff. SearchMyCampus is a free service that is accessible through the internet, mobile and to an extent print. Apart from jobs, it can also be used by students and student service providers to find an effective solution to several other basic campus needs including housing, carpools, roommates, tutors, books and secondhand merchandize of all types.
