The job seeker gets the job faster and the employer fills the position quicker. Pelago’s premise is to focus on people not paper, creating a positive environment for job seekers and employers to connect in a simple, sophisticated way. Pelago feels that both candidates and employers have more to convey than the traditional paper resume. It is simple to create and edit a profile for both a job seeker and an employer within the Pelago platform. Pelago allows both job seekers and employers to upload a pitch video to feature themselves and their work. Impact is gained from reviewing a candidates’ pitch video as you can gauge their enthusiasm and get more in depth insight into their qualifications and inspirations. It also provides a human element to the job seeking process – where the traditional resume and cover letter eliminate the critical human component. Pelago created a platform that allows for a quick and efficient transaction between job seekers and employers. There is a double opt in method for both job seekers and employers, as they must both match before they are able to connect and message. Pelago uses swiping technology and intelligent matching algorithms to connect job seekers and employers. The speed at which they can be connected is the base of Pelago’s platform which will revolutionize the archaic process of job seeking and hiring. Direct connection allows hiring managers and job seekers to start an immediate conversation. Hiring managers can message with job seekers within the app and both parties can transact and vet one another to decide to move forward or not. Swipe is a major aspect of the user experience. Swiping right indicates you are interested, while swiping left means you are not. Job seekers swipe to apply to jobs or left to pass on positions. Employers swipe right to indicate interest or left to eliminate the candidate for that position. Pelago allows job seekers to quickly and easily sift through a number of available positions, while allowing companies to easily review and connect with matching, qualified candidates. Connections will allow five days for a conversation to be started. Either the job seeker or the hiring manager may extend the first message. Pelago seeks to contribute to the larger community and has philanthropic efforts as a focus in all ventures. A portion of all Pelago profits go to support the Pelago Foundation, which focuses on educational opportunities, scholarships and community development projects worldwide.
