New Tinder-like job app helps connect employers and job seekers

A new app has hit the market that aids employers in finding talent, disrupting the typical job application process.

Similar to dating app Tinder, MrEmploy is ideal for businesses of any size in retail, services, food, sales and entertainment environments, although any company can make use of it, including personnel employment agencies. It also targets young job seekers, many of whom have smartphones.

"MrEmploy is an advanced smart matching system that speeds up recruiting," Managing Director Ryan Oettle said. "For employers, it saves time and reduces the risk of hiring the wrong person, while for employees, it links them to the kinds of jobs they are best suited to.”

Using the app, a job seeker creates a profile which includes a standardised micro CV, a photograph and a 15-second video. 

Candidates only see the jobs they qualify for and, like Tinder, can give the "thumbs-up" to the positions they are interested in. The prospective employer receives a notification and can scan the job seeker’s profile and view the candidate’s video in just a few seconds.
