What we Do

Need a career level job? How about a well qualified candidate who can fill that new position?

Whether you're a career seeker or an employer, the current job market can be frustrating. Those new to the workforce express the challenges of finding a quality job that utilizes their skills while companies express their dissatisfaction with  underwhelming candidates.

        

Work Bubble has realized that the unemployment/ underemployment problem does not lie in the lack of positions or candidates, but rather in the process of connecting the two. By creating a personable in depth resume platform, with step by step tutorials, Work Bubble will give the career seeker the tools they need to successfully express their maximum value to an employer. Work Bubble will provide employers with the most qualified candidates through its proprietary matching algorithm and will then provide employers with an extremely effective and time efficient method for filtering and selecting the top candidates for consideration.

Mission Statement
Work Bubble reinvents the hiring process for recent graduates and for those that hire the same.  Work Bubble allows both the career seeker and the HR Professional/Hiring Manager to express their best selves and to make informed hiring choices through a combination of proprietary algorithms, assessments, and analysis.  By identifying the best candidates for the right roles on the right teams, Work Bubble enables all involved to achieve professional success and personal happiness. 


What Sets Work Bubble Apart?

  • Fully Customizable Profiles: Customizable profiles which enable both career seekers and companies to creatively showcase their personal and professional value.
  • The Ultimate Resume: A fresh take on the traditional resume with other opportunities to sell you professional ability including elevator pitch and self sell videos, personal assessment test results, and answers to interview questions.
  • Effective Matching: Our proprietary algorithm suggests the right candidates for the right positions on the right teams.
  • Efficient Filtering: Our highly comprehensive yet easy to use candidate lists allow the employer to filter through candidates with ease.
  • Assessment: Each of our candidates must pass Work Bubble's screening process to submit their profile to potential employers. This ensures we provide only the most driven and well suited individuals.
  • Assistance: We will help you through the process by providing on site tutorials, professional consulting, and analysis to improve your chances of getting an interview and acing it.
  • Insurance: We insure all new hires for one year. If the candidate doesn't fit, we will find you a new one!


                                                   



    · Use of Funds

    As with starting any business there are numerous costs involved. With a strong social cause at our core we decided that Indiegogo would be the perfect platform in helping us to reach out to the community. Our goal is to raise $30,000. We want to bring you the people who will use our service the most comprehensive and efficient solution to employment we can, but to do this we need initial funding.

    Much of our early costs will go to software development and product creation. We will also need an effective marketing campaign to spread the word. There are many other costs but I won't bore you with the details. To put it simply, we need your support to make Work Bubble a reality.

    The Team

    Now that you've learned about Work Bubble, we'd like to take a moment to introduce the people behind Work Bubble and how we came to be.

    The Story

    Hello, my name is Jarid Buck and a few years ago I realized there was a problem in how we get jobs. Our society has undergone fantastic advancements in innovation related to numerous areas of life but ironically the resume has been pushed aside.

    I knew a change was needed but what? There were already successful job placement sites out there but each still failed to go beyond the resume.

    I recently found myself getting the short end of the stick in this economic recession and thought there had to be a better way. Sure, I had some great professional qualifications but in the eye of a potential employer I was just another piece of paper...

    The resume in its current state could not get across my "human capital" -who I am as a person, Jarid Buck. Professional qualifications are great, but what about my personality, interests...me?

    What I needed was a new resume...one that got across both my professional qualifications as well as my personal attributes.

    I searched for this progressive resume but to no avail. Nothing out there provided what I needed, so like any great entrepreneur I decided to create one.

    My goal is to revolutionize the hiring process. During my research I found that not only could the resume be improved to benefit career seekers but also employers. In Spring of 2014 I pitched my idea to a group of young entrepreneurs and before I knew it, Work Bubble was born.

    I know this business has the power to change the way we get jobs. Work Bubble was founded on a simple yet profound mission -help people find career level jobs for free. That's it. No mandatory sign up fees or hidden charges. I know that being unemployed can be hard, I was there not too long ago. Why ask for money from individuals who are already financially strained? Exactly.

    This Indiegogo campaign will help to build the first phase of this revolutionary business. Ultimately, It will help people like you and me get real jobs in industry's that leverage our unique skill sets. It will increase job satisfaction for career seekers and employers alike.

    So please, join me in supporting this project and be a part of the movement. The revolution.
