not a freshgrad here. IMO linkedin and jobstreet's self submit job application is pretty shitty. But I'll have to say Linkedin did help me get a job through a job posting someone made via a normal post. And the most callback and IVs Ive gotten during this pandemic are from the companies direct website application.

direct website application very troublesome and hassle.

for eg for BP or HP website, everytime apply to new co have to rebuild database from scratch.

whereas in jobstreet, you already have your CV inside, just click and send

I hate these stupid IBM, BP, HP big co website, whereby you have to fill up one by one from your personal particulars, to your CV job experience, Academic.
SOme more some of them are via jobstreet.
why these stupiak big corp cannot take from jobstreet ?
its the same thing !!!!!

hahaha I feel you about the hassle of filling up those forms manually.
But another view is that because its such a hassle to apply, less people will be applying for the role hence higher chances of getting shortlisted.
Companies (i.e epf, bank negara) that use jobstreet and linkedin exclusively get over 1k applicants per role, so goodluck getting noticed.......
