Technology giant Google announced the launch of another India focused product, making it easier for users to search for jobs in India. In a blog post, the company announced their latest job search feature for India under the Google Jobs feature.

In the blog post, the company added, “Now we’re bringing job search to India. With this new experience, we aim to connect Indians to numerous opportunities across the country. No matter who you are or what kind of job you’re looking for, it will now be easier to find job postings that match your needs and skills.” Under this feature, users will be able to see in depth results of relevant job opportunities from across the web when users search for “jobs near me,” “jobs for freshers,” or similar job seeking queries.

Google also partnered with a number of organizations from across the industry including IBM Talent Management Solutions, LinkedIn, QuikrJobs and TimesJobs among others for this purpose. The tech giant aims to add a new functionality to the search engine to show a comprehensive listing of jobs on the results page.

With a roster of over a million listings, from some 90,000 employers nationwide, the company claims its tool can help job seekers at every level, from recent college grads to experienced managers. Users can click on the listings to bring up more information about the company and the job role, as well as links to apply for the said role on various platforms.

The search results can also be narrowed down to fewer and more relevant listings by adding filters such as preferred title, location and contract type. “We’ll continue to add relevant filters, and surface more pertinent job related information in the future. This new jobs search experience will be available in English on the Search app on Android and iOS, in Google search on the desktop and mobile,” the company further added.

Both the desktop and the Android versions of the search engine have been integrated with the new tool along with an open source framework called Open Documentation. All third party job search platforms and direct employers, big or small can make their job openings discoverable through the Open Documentation framework. At present, the Indian online job market is showing healthy growth with 63% of people slated to access online job postings and more than 50% of job related queries originating from mobile users.

Elon Musk Bans Hashtags from X Ads, Ushering in a New Era of AI-Driven Marketing

Published

Hashtag on X

Elon Musk has announced that, starting June 27, 2025, hashtags will be banned from all promoted posts on X (formerly Twitter). This policy applies exclusively to paid advertisements, meaning regular users can still include hashtags in their personal posts. Musk described hashtags in ads as an “esthetic nightmare,” emphasizing that the change is intended to create a cleaner, less cluttered feed where advertisements blend more seamlessly with organic content. 

The ban reflects Musk’s long-standing criticism of hashtags, which he has called “ugly” and unnecessary. He argues that with the platform’s advanced AI tools, such as the Grok chatbot, hashtags are no longer essential for content discovery or categorization. Instead, X’s algorithms can now surface and organize relevant content and ads without relying on manual tags, signaling a broader industry shift toward AI-driven content curation.

For advertisers, this marks a significant departure from traditional social media marketing strategies, where hashtags have been key for engagement and campaign tracking. Brands will now need to adapt by focusing on compelling visuals, concise copy, and leveraging X’s AI-powered targeting. The move has sparked debate among marketers and users, with some supporting the cleaner look and others lamenting the loss of a familiar engagement tool.

Amazon’s entry into the $15 billion Indian diagnostics market signals a major shift in the country’s health-tech landscape, introducing new competition for established diagnostic players.
