The Challenges of Job Searching
Finding the right job can be a broken and frustrating process. Job seekers often encounter irrelevant job ads, uncertain salary information, and lack of response after applying. Similarly, managers struggle with sifting through irrelevant applications and sending countless LinkedIn messages with no response. However, Otter, a matching platform, aims to address these challenges by connecting the right candidates with the right jobs, making the job search less soul-crushing. Otter utilizes smart matching algorithms to present job seekers with only relevant opportunities, resulting in more qualified applicants for companies.
