Helping employers see more. Helping workers show more.
Jobs in Skilled Trade was created around a simple idea:
A person’s work experience can represent more than the job title they were hired under.
Someone may have been hired as a Project Coordinator but also performed Safety Coordinator responsibilities. Someone may have held a single position while gaining experience in several different roles.
Those experiences shouldn’t be hidden inside a résumé.
Jobs in Skilled Trade gives workers a way to identify the different roles they’ve actually performed and create job-title profiles that represent those experiences.
WE HELP RECOGNIZE THE ROLES WITHIN YOUR EXPERIENCE.
Traditional résumés organize your work history around jobs and employers.
We look at it differently.
Within one job, you may have performed multiple roles, taken on additional responsibilities, developed new skills, and gained experience that could qualify you for other opportunities.
Jobs in Skilled Trade helps you identify those roles and give them visibility.
Your profile header represents the job title you’ve actually experienced and performed.
Each profile can include your:
Job Description • Responsibilities • Skills • Experience • Transferable Skills • Natural Strengths or Abilities
FOR WORKERS
Your experience is bigger than one job description.
You don’t have to be limited to the title printed on your paycheck.
If you’ve actually performed another role, you can create a profile that represents that experience.
You choose which profiles you want employers to see and which roles you want to pursue.
Show employers what you’ve done. Tell them what you want to do next.
FOR EMPLOYERS
Find the experience behind the job title.
You know the job title you’re hiring for.
The question is: Who has the experience to perform it?
Jobs in Skilled Trade helps employers discover candidates based on the job titles they’ve experienced, the roles they’ve performed, and the skills and experience they’ve developed.
Instead of relying only on a candidate’s most recent title, employers can see a broader picture of what that person has actually done.
Hire for the job title. Find the experience to match.
WHY MULTIPLE PROFILES?
Multiple profiles aren’t about creating jobs a person hasn’t held.
They’re about recognizing the different roles a person has actually performed.
If someone has experience as a Project Coordinator and has also performed Safety Coordinator responsibilities, they can create profiles for both roles—provided those are roles they have actually experienced and want to pursue.
This gives employers more visibility into the candidate’s real-world experience.
EXPERIENCE MATTERS.
Skills can be learned. Experience is earned.
People develop valuable abilities through their jobs, additional responsibilities, hands-on experience, and opportunities they take on along the way.
Some people also have natural strengths and abilities that contribute to the work they do.
Jobs in Skilled Trade gives candidates a place to bring those elements together and show employers more of what they can offer.
OUR PURPOSE
To create a better connection between the jobs employers need to fill and the people who have experience performing them.
We want to help:
Workers recognize and showcase the roles they’ve actually performed.
Employers discover candidates with relevant experience.
Both make a better connection based on what a person has actually done. It is not simply what their most recent job title says.
SEE MORE OF THE EXPERIENCE.
Jobs in Skilled Trade helps turn overlooked experience into visible opportunities.
Identify the roles.
Show the experience.
Create the profile.
Find the opportunity.
