Extremely Disappointing Experience
Extremely disappointing experience with Shine.
I paid around ₹3,500 for the service, and it has been more than one and a half months, but I have not received even a single genuine job call through the service. The service was not at all useful for me considering the amount I paid.
What is even more frustrating is the poor customer support. The representatives do not communicate properly and there is no proper follow-up or accountability after taking the payment.
Now, after paying ₹3,500, I am being told that the package I purchased only allows me to apply for jobs. If I want better opportunities or more calls from recruiters, I have to pay an additional amount. They have suggested/demanded multiple additional payment amounts for different services.
This is extremely frustrating. If the package I already paid for is only meant for applying to jobs, then this should have been clearly explained before taking the payment. Instead, I feel like I am being repeatedly asked to pay more money for additional services after already spending ₹3,500.
₹3,500 is not a small amount, and I genuinely feel that my money has been wasted. More than one and a half months have passed with zero genuine calls, and now I am being asked to pay even more.
Very disappointing experience. I would strongly suggest understanding exactly what is included in the package before paying for any premium service.

Fraud
These person calling from shine side is just a salesperson’s. He will show you big dreams of 2x or 3x from your current role. He ll say as per market standards you deserve this . Our team will provide 4-5 interviews every week. We guaranty to provide you job in 10 days. Bla bla bla. Please please dont get in his words. He ll ask to make a payment 2-3 l thousands first than provide another link , if yoi didn’t proceed he ll say we can’t help you this payment is necessary. After that provide another link . In this way they dubbed me with 32 thousands rupees and then that contact number goes unreachable and another employee of his team start calling and telling you rubbish offers . They only take 7-8 thousands rupees only to check your resume.
What a fraud . And they show that they are trustworthy associates
of Hindustan times.
Please also read comments on Reddit before giving them money.

Never trust Shine
Never entertain shine people. They are not at all transparent on their charges for their number of different paid services and will keep on sending the payment request one after another. And of course they have NO REFUND POLICY. They will heavily charge you and the amount will keep increasing with each transaction. They will not give you any amount estimation and will keep sending you transaction request once the previous one is done. Even if you ask them multiple times how many payments are pending they will smartly play with words and manipulate you make the payment. After all this I totally don’t have any kind of trust to even proceed with services for which I have already paid.

Best app for jobs
Good app for finding jobs, but the number of notification emails is a bit too much. An option to customize frequency within the app would be great.
Best platform
Good platform with many listings. It would be even better if the app had a way to filter jobs by companies that offer childcare support.
