Arya vs Job Portals: Why One Beats Four Separate Logins

Every Job Portal Shows You Listings. Only One Actually Applies

Naukri profile: active. LinkedIn: Premium, active. Shine: signed up during a layoff scare two years ago, never cancelled. Foundit: an old Monster India account you forgot you had. Four portals, four passwords, zero interviews this month.

This is the trap. Every portal in India sells you the same basic promise: create a profile, get discovered, land a job. None of them tell you that "discovered" depends entirely on you doing the finding, tailoring, applying, and following up yourself, four times over, on four different sites.

What Every Portal Actually Sells You - Arya vs Job Portals

Naukri has the largest resume database in the country and free applications. Its paid tier, Naukri 360°, runs ₹890 to ₹1,200 a month for resume highlighting and priority placement in recruiter searches.

LinkedIn blends networking with job listings. LinkedIn Premium Career costs roughly ₹2,400 to ₹2,800 a month and gets you InMail credits, a "who viewed your profile" list, and applicant insights.

Shine leans toward mid-level roles, with Shine Premium around ₹700 to ₹1,000 a month for resume boosts and recruiter spotlighting. Foundit, formerly Monster India, focuses more on experienced professionals, and its premium tier sits around ₹800 to ₹1,500 a month for featured profiles and priority support.

Strip away the branding and every single one of these is selling the exact same thing: visibility. A better spot in a recruiter's search results. None of them apply for you. None of them write a tailored cover letter. None of them chase down a recruiter who's gone silent for two weeks.

The Math Nobody Talks About

If you're doing this properly, and most people aren't because there isn't time, you're reading each JD closely, rewriting your resume to match it, writing a fresh cover letter, logging into each portal separately to submit, and then following up manually days later. Across four portals. Every single day you're job hunting.

That's 2+ hours of grinding, repeated across every platform you're signed up for, just to keep pace. Pay for premium on all four and you've spent close to ₹5,000 a month to be more visible while doing all of that work yourself anyway.

What Arya Does Instead

Arya by Mentoria doesn't ask you to pick a portal. It scans all of them at once: Naukri, LinkedIn, IIMJobs, Shine, Foundit, Hirist, and Instahyre. A series of 7 interconnected AI agents run the entire loop for you, every single day: finding roles that actually match your profile, tailoring your CV to each specific JD, writing a personalised cover letter, submitting the application, finding the recruiter's real email, and following up automatically at 3, 7, and 14 days.

You get 15 of the most relevant jobs delivered daily, already sorted from the 84,000+ jobs Arya processes every month across every portal combined. One login. One dashboard. Every major Indian job site covered at once.

Where every portal stops at getting you seen, Arya finishes the job: it applies, it tailors, and it follows up, without you touching a form.

So Which One Should You Actually Pay For

You don't need to give up your portal profiles, recruiters still search Naukri and LinkedIn directly, so keep them active and filled out. But paying separately for visibility on four different sites while still manually applying to every job yourself isn't a job search strategy. It's a part-time job on top of your actual job search.

27,500+ people across India have already switched to something that does the applying for them, across every portal at once. It's cut job search time by 60%, saved users 2+ hours a day, and because every application is properly tailored instead of copy-pasted, people are seeing up to 8x more interview calls.
