How to Choose the Right Recruiting Agency

Sounds terrifying? Spending all those hours and mounds of energy on nothing! Well, this is why recruiting agencies were created. We are here to get our hands dirty for you! However, one question remains “How do you choose the right recruiting agency?” Do not worry we have the answer to that as well… psst! Keep scrolling!

Track Record

You know how you order a product online and check the review before confirming it… The same goes for recruitment agencies. No matter how fancy the website looks or the big words that are mentioned, here is a pro tip; always check the agency’s record of accomplishment and client testimonials.

A positive review instills confidence in the hiring manager that their choice of recruiting agency is right. A reputable agency should have a history of successful placements and satisfied clients. We are proud to share that Iqbal Manpower is an ISO Certified company approved by the Government of Pakistan.

Industry Expertise

With new agencies emerging every day, it can be overwhelming to pick the right one.

This ensures they understand the specific skills and requirements needed for your positions.

Iqbal Manpower Consultants, collaborating with over 500 global companies, have vast experience in finding talents in multiple industries. Our expertise, ranges from the health sector to construction, including manufacturing, IT, and communication as well.

Recruitment Methods

Why should we be concerned about the recruiting methods of the agency? You really should be, after all it is the methods and approach that makes a difference. Agencies, having a wider network and intense screening process often produce custom-made talents for your hiring needs. Understand the agency’s approach to sourcing candidates. Do they use a variety of methods such as direct sourcing, networking, or job boards? Their methods must align with your preferences and needs because, in the end, the talent provided will affect your company’s growth.

Candidate Quality

Picking up candidates from the resume is not enough. Candidates often seem perfect on paper, however, through screening at times they are not up to the standard.

At, Iqbal Manpower Consultants, we screen and interview the candidates along with extensive background checks to provide unmatched quality candidates.

Cost and Terms

Here is a scenario for you, you hire a recruitment agency, and they provide you with an average candidate and a bill of hefty amount with hidden charges added. Now this is something you want to avoid. Hence, when it comes to closing the deal, ensure to clarify the agency’s fee structure and terms of service upfront. Understand any costs involved and how they charge for their services (e.g., contingency fees, retained search).

We, Iqbal Manpower Consultants, our terms and conditions and fee structure are discussed before sealing the deal.

Communication and Transparency

The most important aspect of any business is strong and clear communication. Maintaining transparency throughout the process boosts the client’s confidence in the agency. Therefore, choose an agency that maintains clear communication throughout the hiring process. They should update you regularly on progress and be transparent about candidate feedback. Moreover, a complete background check should be shared with the company to avoid any future hassles.

Accessibility and Responsiveness

Let us be honest we all love to be responded to in an instant. Therefore, ensure the agency is accessible when you need it and responsive to your queries. A responsive agency can expedite the hiring process and address any concerns promptly. Since they are responsible for setting up candidates for the company, their availability post-hiring is equally important as it is during the process. Iqbal Manpower Consultants excels on this note. We keep in touch and take in regular feedback from the companies and the candidates. We are there during the settling period as well, to ensure our clients are well-adjusted to the new hiring.

How to negotiate your salary?

Ten Useful Tips and Tricks

We all remember our first-ever job interview. The mix of nervousness and excitement topping our emotions! Ensuring we’re well prepared with crisp suits and newly printed resumes. Anyway, one thing we all flustered at was; “what is your expected salary?”

See, when the topic of compensation comes up, we hesitate. The salary offered initially sounds reasonable, but once we step out of the interview room we do wonder: Could we have asked for more? Did we underestimate our own value?

We must understand the importance of negotiating the salary effectively. Here are some key strategies and insights we’ve picked up along the way:

Conduct Thorough Research

Research is always the key before any interview. Thoroughly research the typical salary range for similar positions in your industry and location. A huge assistance are websites like Glassdoor Salary Calculator, PayScale, and LinkedIn which can provide valuable insights. This research will give you a solid foundation to start your negotiation.

Know Your Value

Understand your worth. The moment you step in that interview room, consider your education, skills, relevant experience, and any certifications or specialized training you have. Do not hold back in clearly explaining how these qualifications make you a valuable asset to the company.

Timing Is Crucial

“The best time to negotiate your salary is after you’ve received a job offer.”

This shows that the employer is interested in you and sees you as a potential future employee. Avoid bringing up salary too early in the interview process, as it may give the impression that money is your primary motivation. Well, let’s be honest, even if it’s a big temptation, we need not to show them.

Refine Your Pitch

Develop a confident and polite script for negotiating your salary. Practice it until you feel comfortable and natural. Don’t come on too strong it might come off as being arrogant. Neither, do you want to be extremely polite, that the hiring manager undermine you. Maintain a neutral attitude and tone, and include specific reasons why you believe you deserve a higher salary, such as unique skills, relevant experience, or advanced qualifications.

Be Flexible

Negotiation should be a two-way conversation. Consider other benefits besides salary such as flexible work arrangements, professional development opportunities, or additional vacation time that can contribute to your overall compensation package. It’s okay, to earn a few thousand less, if it doesn’t cost you your mental peace.

Maintain Professionalism

Throughout the negotiation process, maintain a professional demeanor. Be polite and respectful, even if the discussion becomes challenging. Remember, the goal is to reach a mutually beneficial agreement. After all, you don’t want to set off on the wrong foot with your potential employer.

Don’t Settle Too Quickly

If the initial offer doesn’t meet your expectations, don’t be afraid to negotiate. You will be surprised, that a healthy discussion regarding your salary with the hiring manager can do wonders. Express gratitude for the offer and explain why you were hoping for a higher salary. Many employers expect candidates to negotiate, so don’t hesitate to advocate for yourself.

Practice Patience

Negotiations can take time, so be patient and avoid rushing the process. A thoughtful counteroffer demonstrates that you value yourself and the position. Your patience translates that you can handle unforeseen challenges, calmly and professionally.

Consider the Big Picture

When negotiating, think about your long-term career goals. A higher starting salary can impact your future earnings and career trajectory. However, also consider factors like job satisfaction, growth opportunities, and company culture.

Get It in Writing

Once you’ve reached an agreement, ask for the offer in writing. This helps ensure clarity and prevents misunderstandings down the road. Review the details carefully before signing anything. Ensure, all terms and pay grades that are finalized in the final interview are mentioned in the legal document as well.

Let’s close it!

Now that you know all the tips and tricks to get on the higher pay scale, consider yourself fully armed for your next job interview. By mastering the art of negotiation, you set the stage for a successful career journey. Your future self will thank you for it. Good Luck!

پاکستانیوں کے لیے جاپان میں ملازمت کے مواقع

ابھرتے سورج کی سر زمین جاپان نے جنگ عظیم دوم کی تباہ کن بربادی کے باوجود اپنی بے مثال ٹیکنولوجیکل مہارت ، ثقافتی ورثے، اور منظم قومی اتحاد کے باعث اقوام عالم میں جو اپنا مقام بنایا ہے وہ اپنی مثال آپ ہے۔ تاہم، کیا آپ لوگ جانتے ہیں کہ جاپان اپنی بڑھتی ہوئی عمر رسیدہ آبادی کے باعث محنت کشوں کی کمی کا سامنا کر رہا ہے؟ ہنر مند افراد کی ضروریات کو پورا کرنے کے لیے، جاپان نے اقوام عالم سے ہنر مند افراد کو جاپان میں ملازمت کرنے کے لئےآمادہ کرنے کے لئے ایک نئی پالیسی بنائی گئی جو یکم اپریل 2019 کو نافذ ہوئی۔

اس پالیسی کا ابتدائی مقصد پہلے مرحلے میں 340,000 ہنر مند افراد کو جاپان میں مختلف ملازمتوں کے لئے متوجہ کرنا تھا۔ جاپان میں پاکستان کے سفیر، مسٹر کنینوری ماتسودا نےایک کانفرنس میں خطاب کرتے ہوئے بتایا کہ جاپانی حکومت نے 2025 تک دنیا بھر سے 500,000 ہنر مند افراد کو جاپان میں ملازمت دینے کا ہدف مقرر کیا ہے اور 2030 تک اس تعداد کو مزید بڑھانے کا منصوبہ بنایا ہے۔ اس صورت حال میں جہاں حکومت جاپان کی محنت کشوں کی کمی کو پورا کرنے کی عزم کی عکاسی ہوتی ہے وہیں غیر ملکی افراد ، بشمول پاکستانیوں کے لیے بھی روزگار کے مواقع کھل گئے ہیں۔

پاک – جاپان حکومتوں کے مابین مفاہمت کی یادداشت

2019 جاپان-پاکستان تعاون کی تاریخ میں ایک اہم سنگ میل کی حیثیت رکھتا ہے جب دونوں ممالک نے پاکستانی ہنر مند افراد کی جاپان میں ملازمت کے لیے مفاہمت کی یادداشت پر دستخط کیے۔ یہ معاہدہ “مخصوص ہنر مند افراد” پروگرام کے گرد مرکوز ہے، جس کا مقصد ہنر مند افراد کو جاپان میں ملازمت کے مواقع فراہم کرنا ہے۔ اس معاہدہ کے تحت، پاکستانی افراد جاپان میں ملازمت حاصل کر سکتے ہیں بشرطیکہ وہ مطلوبہ اہلیت کے امتحانات پاس کریں تاہم، کووڈ-19 وبا کے باعث یہ عمل ملتوی ہو گیا۔حالات کے معمول میں آنے کے بعد جاپان میں ہنر مند افراد کی ضرورت میں اضافہ ہوا اور اب سرکاری ادارے کے ساتھ ساتھ نجی پروموٹرز کو بھی پاکستانی افراد کو جاپان بھیجنے کی اجازت دی گئی ہے اور اقبال مین پاور کنسلٹنٹس اب پاکستان میں جاپان کے لیے ایک منظور شدہ ریکروٹمنٹ ایجنسی بن گئی ہے۔

پاک جاپان تعلقات اور جاپان میں موجود پاکستانی کمیونٹی

28 اپریل 1952 کو سفارتی تعلقات کے قیام کے بعد سے، پاکستان اور جاپان کے درمیان برادرانہ تعلقات مسلسل مضبوط ہو رہے ہیں۔ پاکستان سان فرانسسکو امن کانفرنس کے فوراً بعد جاپان میں تجارتی دفتر کھولنے والے پہلے ممالک میں شامل تھا، اور اسی دوران جاپان نے کراچی میں اپنا ابتدائی تجارتی دفتر کھولا۔ جاپان میں موجود پاکستانی کمیونٹی ، انڈونیشیا اور بنگلہ دیشی کمیونٹی کے بعد ، تیسری سب سے بڑی مسلمان اکثریتی گروپ ہے۔ دسمبر 2023 تک کے اعداد و شمار کے مطابق، جاپان میں 25,334 رجسٹرڈ پاکستانی مقیم ہیں۔

ایک تقریب میں خطاب کرتے ہوئے جاپان کے سفیر کنینوری ماتسودا نے جاپان میں پاکستانی ہنر مند افراد کی تعریف کرتے ہوئے ان کی لگن، ایمانداری اور مہارت کو سراہا کہ یہ افراد جاپان کی ترقی میں نمایاں کردار ادا کر رہے ہیں۔

جاپانی مارکیٹوں میں پاکستانیوں کے لیے بڑھتے ہوئے مواقع کا اندازہ دسمبر 2023 تک جاپان میں ملازمت اور کاروبار کے لیے آنے والے پاکستانیوں کی تعداد سے لگایا جا سکتا ہے، گزشتہ 10 ماہ میں 5,000 سے زائد پاکستانی افراد نے جاپان کا رخ کیا۔ اس حوالے سے جاپان میں پاکستان کے سفارت خانے کا کردار بہت قابل تعریف ہے۔ حال ہی میں ایک جاپانی کمپنی، بارڈر لنک نے ٹوکیو میں پاکستانی سفارت خانے کے تعاون سے پاکستان سے 32 استاذہ کو بھرتی کیا ہے۔ یہ مختلف شعبوں میں پاکستانیوں کی بڑھتی ہوئی طلب اور جاپان میں پاکستانیوں کے لیے ملازمت کے مواقع کو ظاہر کرتا ہے۔

خلاصہ

جاپان کی جامع پالیسیوں اور ہنر مند افراد کی بڑھتی ہوئی طلب کے باعث پاکستانی ہنر مند افراد کے پاس جاپان کی متحرک معیشت میں اپنا کردار ادا کرنے اور اس سے فائدہ اٹھانے کا شاندار موقع ہے۔ اس معاہدہ سے نہ صرف دو طرفہ تعلقات مضبوط ہوں گے بلکہ ہنر مند پاکستانیوں کے لیے خلیجی ریاستوں کے بعد ایک نئی منظم اور پرکشش مارکیٹ میں اپنے لئے نت نئے مواقعوں کو تلاش کرنے کا ایک نیا دروازہ بھی کھلا ہے۔ جاپان میں ملازمت کے حوالے سے رہنمائی اور معلومات کے لئے آپ ہم سے رابطہ کرسکتے ہیں۔

JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR PAKISTANIS IN JAPAN

JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR PAKISTANIS IN JAPAN: A NEW HORIZON

Japan has long been recognized for its technological advancements, rich culture, and disciplined workforce. But very few know that Japan is facing a significant labor shortage due to its aging population In response to its labor needs, Japan had turned to the international community for skilled labor and created a new “Status of Residence” for specific skilled workers, which became effective on April 1, 2019. This policy initially aimed to attract 340,000 skilled workers in the first phase. The Japanese Ambassador to Pakistan, Mr. Kuninori Matsuda said that the Japanese government has set an ambitious target to attract up to 500,000 blue-collar workers from around the world by 2025 with further plans to increase this number by 2030. This initiative underscores Japan’s commitment to addressing its labor shortage while providing substantial employment opportunities for foreign workers, including Pakistanis. There are many job opportunities for Pakistanis in Japan.

Memorandum of Cooperation: A Gateway For Pakistani to Employment In Japan

2019 marked a milestone in the history of Japan- Pakistan collaboration when both countries signed a memorandum of cooperation, aimed at facilitating the employment of Pakistani skilled workers in Japan. This agreement centers around the “Specified Skilled Workers” program, designed to provide skilled workers with employment opportunities in Japan. Under this framework, Pakistani workers can secure jobs in Japan after passing the required examinations, marking a significant milestone in bilateral relations and international labor cooperation. However, due to the Covid-19 outbreak, the process was delayed. Later on, the requirement for skilled labor surged and now the government institutions as well as private overseas promoters are also authorized to send Pakistani workers to Japan and Iqbal Manpower Consultants is now also an authorized recruiting agency for Japan in Pakistan.

Specified Fields for Employment

Japan’s specified skilled workers program covers 12 fields:

Nursing care
Building cleaning management
Electric, electronics, and information industries
Construction industry
Shipbuilding/ship machinery industry
Automobile maintenance
Aviation industry
Accommodation industry
Agriculture
Fishery & Aquaculture
Manufacture of food and beverages
Foodservice industry

Pakistani Community in Japan

Since the establishment of diplomatic relations on April 28, 1952, the ties between Pakistan and Japan have steadily grown stronger. Pakistan was among the first countries to open a commercial office in Japan, soon after the San Francisco Peace Conference, and Japan reciprocated by opening an early trade office in Karachi. The Pakistani community in Japan is the third-largest Muslim-majority immigrant group, following the Indonesian and Bangladeshi communities. As of December 2023, there are 25,334 registered Pakistanis living in Japan.

“In his address to a ceremony, Japanese Ambassador Kuninori Matsuda praised the Pakistani workforce in Japan, highlighting their dedication, honesty, and skills, which contribute significantly to Japan’s development. “

The growing opportunities in Japanese markets for Pakistanis are projected by the number of Pakistanis arriving in Japan for employment, and business has reached an all-time high as of December 2023, with over 5,000 new registrations in the past 10 months. In this regard, the role of the Pakistan Embassy in Japan is very appreciable. Recently a Japanese company, BorderLink, has hired 32 Assistant Language Teachers from Pakistan in collaboration with the Embassy of Pakistan in Tokyo. This reflects the increasing demand for Pakistani workers in various sectors and highlights the job opportunities for Pakistanis in Japan.

Conclusion

The cooperation between Japan and Pakistan under the “Specified Skilled Workers” program marks a significant step forward in international labor relations. With Japan’s inclusive policies and the growing demand for skilled labor, Pakistani workers have a tremendous opportunity to contribute to and benefit from Japan’s dynamic economy. This initiative not only strengthens bilateral ties but also opens a promising future for skilled Pakistanis seeking to explore new horizons.

Establishment of SIFC and Role of POEPA

Initiative of SIFC and the Role of POEPA

Pakistan’s economic condition has reached a critical juncture where reconciliation and strategic initiatives are paramount for achieving stability. It has been characterized by slow growth, rising inflation, and increasing debt. As of 2024, the country continues to grapple with a significant debt crisis and severe fiscal deficits. The Pakistani rupee has faced substantial devaluation, reaching alarming levels against the US dollar before stabilizing slightly due to stringent measures and international support. This precarious economic environment underscores the urgent need for political reconciliation and robust economic policies to steer Pakistan toward stability. So, there is the establishment of SIFC and POEPA roles.

Establishment of SIFC

In response to the economic turmoil, the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) was established on June 20, 2023, by Prime Minister of Pakistan Mr. Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif along with Chief of the Army Staff, General Asim Munir. The primary objective of SIFC was to attract direct foreign investment into Pakistan, thereby fostering economic growth and development. SIFC focuses on creating a conducive environment for investors by streamlining regulations, reducing bureaucratic hurdles, and providing incentives for foreign businesses to invest in Pakistan. This initiative is seen as a cornerstone in Pakistan’s strategy to stabilize its economy and enhance its development prospects. SIFC initially focused on key sectors including Agriculture & Livestock, IT & Telecom, Mines & Minerals, Energy (Petroleum & Power), and Industry, Tourism & Privatization to drive Pakistan’s economic growth and development.

The Vital Role of POEPA

(Pakistan Overseas Employment Promoters Association)

While SIFC focuses on attracting direct foreign investment, the role of POEPA cannot be overstated.

“POEPA has long advocated for sending skilled manpower abroad as a short-term solution to bring immediate foreign investment through remittances.”

This approach requires minimal initial investment in development but hinges on the crucial need for proper training of the workforce. According to the Ministry of Overseas Pakistanis & Human Resource Development, approximately 9 million overseas Pakistanis are contributing significantly to the national economy through remittances.

Pakistan’s Economic Condition and the Need for Reconciliation

To propel Pakistan’s economic development, there is a pressing need for centralized schemes and cohesive policies. Effective implementation of these policies can drive sustainable growth and ensure economic stability. Pakistan must prioritize economic stability over internal differences. The future of the nation hinges on collective efforts to strengthen the economy. As I believe that

“If Pakistan thrives, we all thrive; if it falters, we all face the consequences.”

By uniting in our efforts and focusing on economic initiatives, we can ensure a prosperous future for Pakistan.

Conclusion

The establishment of SIFC and the strategic role of POEPA is the multifaceted approach needed to stabilize and grow Pakistan’s economy. By fostering direct foreign investment and leveraging the potential of Manpower exports to GCC and other parts of the world, Pakistan can navigate through its economic challenges toward a brighter future. It is a call for unity, collaboration, and unwavering focus on economic development to ensure that Pakistan not only survives but thrives in the global arena.

The Price Of Hajj From Pakistan: A Financial Breakdown of the Cost

The month of Hajj is around the corner, and so is the hustle and bustle of people planning for the holy trip. The journey of Hajj is a holy trip for Muslims, and it involves multiple emotions where sentiments are above all. For this beautiful journey, Muslims are ready to leave their homes and sacrifice their money to enjoy the religious duty with full zeal and zest.

However, it is a religious trip compulsory for Muslims with zero financial burden. Muslims from all over the world come and perform this pilgrimage to show their love for the Almighty and resign their sins to start a new life with no burden on their shoulders. With time, the Price of Hajj From Pakistan is a concern for people with no prior experience. The prices keep on changing, and so is the division of the budget. In this regard, this blog is a perfect guide for people planning for Hajj from Pakistan in the coming months. Before you get distracted, or your attention zone comes to an end, let’s get into the financial division of the overall cost.

Budget Guide for Price of Hajj From Pakistan

Looking for a guide to manage your budget for Hajj this year? Don’t panic, take a deep breath and keep reading.

Flight

The first and most important part of Hajj is the flight. For this purpose, you need to separate a significant amount of money. The estimated cost for the flight from Pakistan to Jeddah is around 1,140,000. It can vary from the city you choose or the flight duration you choose. For long flights, the cost is a bit high, whereas for normal duration, the cost is around this number.

Moreover, when it comes to budget for flights, the number can vary, and it depends upon the following factors

Number of people
Duration of flight
Traveling agency you choose
Mode of flight

All these factors significantly affect the flight cost, and you can discuss these factors with the agent beforehand to avoid any uncertain events.

Stay Cost

The second and one of the major parts of Hajj is the stay. It is the hotel you choose for your stay or the place where you live to decide during your 30-day trip to Holy Kaaba. Like the price of the flight, it depends upon several factors, and can vary from place to place or the staying partner you choose.

However, when it comes to staying, there are three options. One of them is the luxury stay, one is the normal one, and the third is the low-key one. The facilities of each one of them depend on the package you choose, and this is where you have to play smart. If you can afford a luxury stay, select the one that offers your desired requirements.

However, if you choose to live in a normal place, find the one that offers maximum facilities within your allocated budget.

Food

When you are going for Hajj, one thing that you constantly need to keep in mind is to separate a budget for all your food items. If you do not want to be distracted while performing hajj, you need to plan everything.

When you get there, you understand, it is slightly more expensive than you would have thought. If you are mindful enough, you will set out a budget for food separately even before you start traveling.

When you make a cost division, it saves you from so much hassle while traveling. You will not need to open your calculator to see if you have crossed the limit of expenditures or not. It will save you not only your money but will also help you focus on your Hajj better.

Shopping

Going for Hajj and coming without souvenirs is strange. Every Muslim who desires Hajj, comes back with souvenirs for their family members and friends they left behind. In this case, it is smart to allocate a separate chunk of your money to buy dates and other Hajj souvenirs for your peers and family members.

So, shopping is one of the essentials, and you must add it to your list. Keep it minimal, but let it be there to give back to your loved ones after coming from a holy trip along with prayers.

Bottom Line

Cost division always comes with some good and bad announcements. Somewhere it gives you relaxation, and here it is just another financial burden. However, when it comes to Hajj, Muslims keep their limits open to enjoy a stress-free trip without incurring financial hardships. If you are planning for Hajj, you should know that the prices keep changing. They vary and are affected by multiple factors like flight booking, your stay, and the food choices you make. To be smart, or to stay ahead of the curve, contact Iqbalmanpower for true guidance on this matter. They are a well-reputed platform that helps understand the cost division and Price Of Hajj From Pakistan.

What Makes A Travel Package a Complete Suite?

When we talk about traveling or planning a trip, the first mention is a travel package. It is a luxury bucket that consists of multiple benefits and perks that you can utilize from time to time. If you talk about the Travel Packages From Pakistan, the bucket mainly incorporates transport, accommodation, and safety. The hotel booking, flights, and stay are all included to let people enjoy their trip without any external burden on their shoulders.

Back then when people were not used to using travel packages, there was a misconception that travel packages are a bit costly and are more chaotic than the regular travel juggle. However, social media awareness and the frequent content creation by the influencer market, have somewhat brought a change.

Now if you are traveling from Pakistan or across Pakistan, you find people show keen interest in searching for affordable travel packages. It is not just to save the cost, but also to have a hassle-free trip under the supervision of a team that specifically monitors all the traveling essentials.

What Is Included In Travel Packages?

As the name suggests, a travel package is a complete suite that includes multiple traveling benefits like flight booking, hotel stay, transport service, and other luxury calls like food, tour guide, and discounts swoops in without a knock.

Now what sparks doubt is the right selection of travel packages. Here are some of the key focuses that you must encounter to find a tour package that is a complete suite on its own

Financial Savvy

The first and the last thing that can help you choose a travel package is the budget. Search for options that are pocket-friendly and have no hidden agenda of adding a dent in your wallet. For this purpose choose authentic travel partners like Iqbalmanpower for Travel Packages From Pakistan, a perfect financial savvy for your dream tours.

Moreover, travel packages are meant to be comfortable in all possible ways, and if that comfort is disturbing your budget, there is no need to take this pain. For this purpose look for travel packages that perfectly fit your financial limits.

Transport Service

The second most important thing that you must notice about a travel package is their transport service. If the service is customer-friendly and comfortable, it is more than enough. For this purpose read their reviews or ask someone who previously traveled with them.

If the majority of people give positive reviews and speak in their favor, it means you would struggle in finding cabs or booking cars to travel around your destination or towards your destination.

Accommodation Service

The third and most important item of a travel package is accommodation. Most travel agencies share strong professional connections with accommodation companies, and the purpose behind it is to give a comfortable staying luxury to their customers.

Therefore, they find beautiful and relaxing accommodations in nearby areas for easy travel and enjoyment purposes. Also, travel companies focus on finding beautiful and lavish living spaces to give a pampering experience to their customers during their stay in a strange country, area, or state.

Corporate Benefits

If you are traveling with a company that handles corporate travel services, it is important to see what benefits they offer. Some of the high-lighting perks are food, luxury stays, chauffeurs, business class flights, and much more.

The purpose of corporate benefits is to let consumers be safe and stress-free during their business trips. Also, as they are mainly for work purposes, the idea is to offer the ultimate guide to the people traveling for corporate purposes.

Convenient Process

One of the most neglected items of a travel package is convenience. It is the ease the travel company brings to their customers while they leave everything behind to be on a journey with them, a team of absolute strangers.

If the team is cooperative and offers a helping hand at multiple stages, it means the travel package is nothing but bliss.

Additional Perks

Travel Packages and travel agencies are now in huge numbers. So, to create a difference or to stand out, different companies offer different perks. When we talk about Iqbalmanpower, they handle Travel Packages From Pakistan, and their additional perk is a hassle-free visa process.

The idea of working abroad or searching for a job is the process of setting up your goals and objectives. It could be earning a handsome amount of money, polishing your skills, or learning new services. For this purpose, jot down your objective and create a strategy to apply in respective areas.

However, when you define your objectives it gives you a clear picture and you get to have the right direction. For this if you have to improve your skills or get more payment choose what aligns with your goals.

Start online job hunting:

The second step to finding a job is online search and research. It is the initial step to embark on the journey of working abroad. However, the process is not as simple as it may look because you have to look deep enough to find the perfect role.

It is one of the most important tips because if you are looking for a job, you will have to look for a job first.

Moreover, you can seek help from different online sources like Google, LinkedIn, Indeed, and other platforms. These will give you easy access to find the job of your choice.

Drop your resume:

The next step is to drop your CV everywhere. You cannot find a job if you feel uncomfortable dropping your resume everywhere. When you are constantly looking for a job you might find places that you like but with a little inconvenience. If you do not like a certain thing about any job do not hesitate to apply because it will anyway benefit you in one way or the other.

Apply for as many job posts as possible because this is one of the ways you can land a good job for yourself. Whenever you are applying for a job post look for what the job requires and then form your resume according to that. This will help you get a good opportunity within less time.

Keep your documents prepared:

One other mistake that we make is that we keep applying for jobs but we do not keep our documents ready. You need to remember that even before applying for a job, you need to have your documents aligned. This way when someone calls you for an interview you do not get into the hustle of finding your documents. Being proactive always helps you in all the odd situations. It helps you stay ahead of the curve to grab an opportunity as soon as possible.

Keep an eye on all your profiles:

One more thing that you gotta do is constantly keep an eye on all your profiles. Sometimes it happens that you apply for a job post and then you forget to follow the post. In this case, when the company responds, but you do not keep an eye chances are that you will lose the opportunity. So, along with everything else it is really important to keep a consistent eye on the profiles that you have built. With that, also keep checking the posts that are showing up on your profile so you do not miss any opportunity that suits you or your choices. Keeping a check on your profile is as important as applying for a job.

Conclusion:

The era that we are living in, has become hard to land a good job. Some places you do not like, and other places do not even call you for an interview. In all such situations, you must keep a check on the points that we have mentioned above. If you keep going back to these steps and make the right choices, finding a job will surely not look like an impossible task. You just need to work hard enough and keep an eye on the right way so you get what you desire. However, if you are searching Saudi Jobs For Pakistanis, you can search the one following the above process.
