I tried to look it up but all i’m getting is results about mental health and eavesdropping. Any help would be great.

Hi everyone! This is my first post in this forum.
I am giving a speech this weekend on advice for job applicants in tech from a former hiring manager. I need a synonym for 'hirability' as it is not a real word. I was thinking "marketability," but it's non-specific to job applicants. Is there a good word for this that I'm overlooking?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

There should be. Seems 95% of Instagram commenters fit into this description.

I'm drawing a blank, but I remember coming across that word on Twitter and I googled it, just can't seem to recall it now.

I've tried to look this up online to the best of my (limited) ability and I'm hella curious - does anyone know where this word came from? Specifically the use below:
ligger
noun /ˈlɪɡə(r)/ /ˈlɪɡər/(British English, informal)
a person who always takes the opportunity to go to a free party or event that is arranged by a company to advertise its products
a roomful of liggers drinking free champagne
Would be very grateful for any insight!
