Good job matches

I have had a 50% success rate securing an interview via Hackajob.
Fewer jobs posting matching my profile but higher interviews rate

Experienced Project Manager: it was a waste of time.

I'm an experienced Project Manager. I filled all the information required by the job site. In 4 weeks I got ~4 job matches, which were not relevant to my preferences, from industry sectors I'm not interested in.
It was a waste of time. I think recruiters can provide a more personalized service.

Hi Chiara,

Thanks for the feedback. I'm sorry to hear the roles we matched you up to weren't a good fit.

I've dropped you an email to see if you'd be open to a quick chat to properly unpack this, so we can take on board any learnings for future job seekers.

Thanks,
Phil

Good app to find employment

Great experience as someone looking for new employment. I got contacted by a few employers and used the app to also find employers looking for my desired roles. I got a few interviews and finally landed a job offer from one of the employers who contacted me. The only thing I would say is that some of the jobs they matched me did not fit my uploaded CV or profiles

Hey Nitin,

Thanks for feeding back here. The companies using hackajob choose to have their jobs open to candidates that would need to relocate. Some choose to open their roles up this way, others prefer to have them only focused on local candidates.

This is typically due to past experiences with relocating candidates dropping out of the process at later stages, at a high rate.

We work with companies to try and open roles up, and considering relocation is an ongoing topic, but ultimately, the decision to make this change rests with the companies themselves.

Thanks,
Phil

Applying for a Suggested Role Got Me An Interview at a Dream Company

The AI suggested roles you apply get you real visibility to top senior recruiters that Are looking for real talent. I was skeptical at first. Hackajob recommends you put in applications for roles they match you with based on analyzing your resume. The recruiters are then granted visibility to those who respond to these matches.

You cannot apply for a job until you choose job types you are looking for. However, it does not list Internal Communications Manager, Communications Manager or Engagement Manager, ironically despite the fact this is the role advertised (for BA) I am trying to apply for. It does not let you skip this step.

Hey Jonathan,

Thanks for the feedback here, I've requested more info as I'd love to look into this specific example and see if I can help generate the match in the short-term.

Taking a longer term view this feedback is really useful, we know it's not an ideal scenario when a good match is missed due to a filter selection misalignment on either side, we've kicked off a project to look into this and see how we can iterate to ensure where possible we do still generate the match.
