Before we answer this very important question, let's share what we are building in the first place. Aplushub (A+ hub) is a career platform where we our mission to give working professionals A+ quality tools to find and succeed in their careers.
Next, let's first understand what's FREE!
Any full-time job posted on the platform by an employer, founder, or a staffing company will always be free for both employers and job seekers. Essentially, employers don't need to pay anything to advertise their jobs, contact candidates and/or download their CVs, and job seekers don't need to pay anything to apply, follow up and/or seek feedback. This ensures more companies post their jobs without any frictions, and candidates access more and more jobs for free. Majority of job portals charge employers to post or to download or to contact potential candidates, which naturally reduces the no of employers on their platforms. On A+, we aim to have one large platform where tens of millions of jobs can be found in seconds for FREE!
Now that we have established that a massive job universe will be free on A+, we will explain what are premium jobs and why are they premium after all?
Our vision is to build one portal for all jobs in the world so that job seekers do not have to spend countless hours and bucket loads of money finding companies, employers, headhunters, referrals, networking events, and common contacts to access jobs that could potentially change their lives - the dream jobs. We aim to provide them all at one place more cheaply than the price of one coffee!
In order to do that, we have brought together a research team - both AI and humans - that are tasked to bring together jobs from thousands of sources - career pages, alumni networks, niche job portals, head hunters/staffing firms, private communities and more - on to A+ and make them accessible at a click of a button. In addition to the FREE jobs that get posted on A+ directly, our research brings jobs from elsewhere. The latter are the premium jobs! For this, we charge a mere INR 50/month (peanuts, right?) i.e. 1/4th cost of a decent cup of coffee.
To answer the last part of the question, why are they premium? For two simple reasons - to cover the manual and AI research costs, and more importantly, to ensure genuine applicants access those jobs. Genuine job seekers, and not spammers, access the premium feature. Hope that makes sense?
We whole heartedly wish to simplify job as well as candidate search.
Do share your thoughts in the feedback form on the right of A+ website, and our team will respond individually to each input.
Don’t stress about searching every career page or job site. Stay ahead with the latest opportunities from different sources right here!

I am bullish on Vodafone. I see it as a turnaround case. The thesis is:
- the telco market is too big for a duopoly. Even the smallest GCC/European countries have two or more players.
- Promoters have deep pockets and now, one of the promoter is Government with nearly a third of the company. So, essentially you and I may have to bail out with your taxes should things go bad from here. 😅
- The intent seems clear - they are monetizing non core assets, investing in core business and holding on to/regaining market share in their p0 markets without worrying about p1/p2s.
How much they will turnaround will be seen, but I think they do have a strong case. Do you agree?
