🧬 New landing page: A more human job search
Project: All in One Type: ✨ Enhancement User: 💁🏻♀️ People
Introduction
To better reflect cord’s role in helping people find work, we’re updating how we describe cord from “the messaging tool for finding work” to the “direct job search platform”.
On our landing page, our new tagline is “A more human job search” with supporting line “cord is the only job search platform that makes finding work direct, transparent and human.”
These changes reflect cord’s evolution beyond a simple messaging tool - but still highlight that cord provides people with direct access to people hiring. Beyond the messaging tool, people use cord to search thousands of positions, get insights, and manage their entire job search in one place.
What is cord?
In one phrase: the direct job search platform
In one sentence: cord is the job search platform that gives you direct access to hiring teams at technology companies in the UK, USA and remote across Europe.
How does cord work?
- Every position in one place
Say goodbye to sifting through uninspiring job listings with limited information. As well as positions you can message directly, we index the web for open positions that might be relevant to you. All the important data about a position is live and transparent, including salary, tech stack, interview process and response times. Our advanced search tool makes it simple to find relevant positions in seconds.
- Message directly
No more sending your CV into a black hole, unsure if anyone will ever see it. Get direct access to hundreds of people hiring. With just two clicks, you can send a message, and 1 in 2 of those messages leads to a conversation—a real conversation with a real person.
- Advanced insights
Stay ahead of the competition with powerful insights. See which companies are viewing and engaging with your profile, and understand which of your skills attract the most attention. Leverage data from over 100,000 past applications to refine your approach, target the right roles, and improve your chances of success. Maximise your earning potential by comparing your salary with industry averages and tracking salary trends across different roles.
- Track your applications
Ditch the overwhelming spreadsheets and avoid losing track of interviews. On cord, track all of your applications and interviews in one organised place on your application tracker. Note - the application tracker isn’t live yet!
