Hi Jason, thanks very much for the feedback - I really appreciate it. It sounds like the copy is definitely something I need to get right.
And in answer to your question
- It's a recruiting platform like The Resumator, or Jobvite, but with a job board built in. It also adds social data to job listings and to job applications - so each job listing will also show a list of people who recommend working there. If you're an employer, when people apply for you job, it shows you a list of your team members who choose to follow the applicant on Twitter.
Companies could find it useful because recruiting is extremely hard - there's a low signal to noise ratio, so you might get lots of job applications from people who aren't really suitable, and only a few applications from people who are great. Moki helps you spot the people who are most likely to fit in quicker. Job seekers can find it useful because jobs listed aren't from recruitment agencies - they're from the actual company themselves - you can see a profile page of the company that explains their culture, office & perks and you can see a list of people who recommend working there.
It works, hopefully, seamlessly - companies list jobs in the same way they would with a regular job board and people apply for jobs directly on Moki, filling in a form on the site. The only difference is that you need to log in through Twitter to sign up. Nothing is ever automatically tweeted from their account.
As you can see - I've not quite found a way to word the concept elegantly yet. Thanks again for the feedback - I genuinely appreciate it.
- yashchandra 14y ago"you might get lots of job applications from people who aren't really suitable, and only a few applications from people who are great" This in my opinion is the problem that you are trying to solve through Moki. correct ? Why not make this clear on the homepage instead of saying "Hiring made simple..through twitter blah blah". So the problem is "too many applicants, only few good ones matching your company's needs/culture/environment/requirement". Moki is solving this problem by a) removing recruitment agencies layer ? b) directly connecting job seekers and employers ? c) twitter helps the employer understand more about the job applicant from his/her connections who might already work at the company ? d ) twitter helps the job seeker understand more about the company from his/her connections who already work there ? I am just thinking off top of my head here but take away whatever you can.
- illdave 14y agoThat's great, thanks very much for the advice, those are some really good starting points for me to work from.
