Jobs in Tajikistan: vacancy sites JOIKOR, Korgar, Yakto, Rud, Yora and Mohir
Where to find jobs and staff in Tajikistan: a review of the job sites JOIKOR, Korgar.tj, Yakto, Rud and Yora and the freelance platform Mohir, with tips on choosing.
You can start looking for work in Tajikistan online. Local job sites collect employers' offers, let job seekers post a CV and help companies find candidates without going through recruitment agencies. Alongside them are freelance platforms, where people look for a specific project rather than a permanent job. This review covers six Tajik sites and offers tips on how to use them.
Job sites
JOIKOR is a platform for finding jobs and employees. Its vacancies are organised by functional area, which makes it easy to browse offers in your own profession. Besides vacancies, the site lets you find companies, register your own organisation and read the blog.
Korgar.tj is a portal for job search and recruitment, including in Dushanbe and Khujand. Job seekers can create a CV and browse vacancies by category, while employers can post a listing and search CVs themselves. This two-way format is convenient when you want not only to apply for vacancies but also to be found.
Yakto is a job and recruiting service with vacancies organised by category. Employers post openings and search for candidates, and the service runs a Telegram channel with new offers, a handy option for people used to getting updates in a messenger.
Rud is a job search service in Tajikistan. Users can post resumes, find vacancies and employees across the country's cities, and browse a company directory.
Yora is a job search and hiring platform with company vacancies. You can apply in one click, chat with recruiters and create a resume in the same place.
Freelance and project work
Mohir works differently: it is a freelance platform where clients find freelancers and freelancers find projects. You can post a project or hire a specialist in design, development, marketing, video, writing and translation. The interface is available in Russian, Tajik and English. Mohir suits people looking for side work or wanting to work for themselves, as well as companies that need someone for a specific task rather than a permanent hire.
How job seekers can choose
- Decide on the format: job sites suit a permanent job, while a freelance platform suits one-off tasks and projects.
- If you want employers to find you, choose a service where you can create a CV; Korgar.tj, Rud and Yora describe this option explicitly.
- Look at how search is organised: by functional area, section or category. Convenient navigation saves time.
- Subscribe to updates if the service offers them, such as Yakto's Telegram channel.
- Do not limit yourself to one site: the vacancies on different platforms may differ.
How employers can choose
A company hiring a permanent employee should post the vacancy on several sites and, where the option exists, search the CV database at the same time. Registering the organisation, as on JOIKOR, lets you present the company to job seekers. For one-off tasks such as a logo, a website, an advertising campaign, a video or a translation, it makes more sense to post a project on a freelance platform. The more clearly a listing describes the duties, requirements and working conditions, the more relevant the responses will be and the less time candidate selection will take.
A few practical tips
Read the vacancy description carefully: duties, requirements and conditions. Keep your CV up to date and tailor it to the specific position. Save links to interesting vacancies and note where you have already applied: this makes it easier to follow up on employers' replies and avoid applying twice for the same offer. Before an interview, study the company's website, since many organisations publish information about themselves and their vacancies on their own sites. And be careful if you are asked to pay for a job placement or to hand over personal documents before meeting the employer.
All sites in the Jobs category are collected in the catalog.tj catalog.
