Platform Provider Acquired
Job Boardly, an online platform for creating and managing job boards, has been acquired by a new owner named Nelson. The founders, Kyle and Jason, stated that due to their growing commitments and limited time, they could no longer dedicate the necessary focus to the platform. They decided to sell Job Boardly to someone who could further develop it.
Nelson is expected to bring new energy, vision, and focus to Job Boardly, leading to more features, faster updates, and increased investment in support and infrastructure. While the founders will remain for a transition period to ensure a smooth handover, existing user accounts, access, and setups will remain unchanged. The founders expressed gratitude to their community and excitement for the future of Job Boardly under its new ownership.
FlexJobs has launched a new “responsible” AI auto-apply tool aims to streamline application process and save time for job seekers.
Available to FlexJobs users, ExpertApply was developed to streamline the application process. Through advanced artificial intelligence, the tool helps job seekers auto-apply for jobs quickly and easily using the information on their resume, significantly reducing the time spent on job applications and allowing job seekers to focus on finding their dream role.
Additionally, ExpertApply is built into users’ FlexJobs accounts and provides them the ability to review applications before submission, maintaining quality, oversight, and control for job seekers as well as greater alignment and transparency for employers.
How It Works:
- Upload Resume: ExpertApply pulls resume data, including work history, education, and key skills to build the job seeker’s application profile on FlexJobs.
- Auto-Apply to Relevant Roles: ExpertApply uses AI to apply for jobs automatically, completing applications based on the job seeker’s profile.
- Review & Submit: With ExpertApply, the job seeker’s entire application will be prepared using AI. All they need to do is review and submit.
The release of ExpertApply underscores FlexJobs’ ongoing commitment to providing job seekers with the resources and tools they need to successfully navigate the evolving job market and modern work landscape.
New Job Search & Referral Marketplace
ePosting – an innovative, peer-to-peer referral marketplace connecting users to jobs, services and building professional networks with rewards through its structured platform – announces a full public launch, having completed its Beta phase and a successful pilot program. Now with this wide-scale release, the company will reach larger audiences with key developments for a smarter, more secure, feature-rich experience. These include a streamlined referral process between a job seeker and job poster, algorithm driven recommendations, AI-powered profile builder, robust notifications for time-sensitive updates and enhanced security and payment protections.
There is also a growing selection of featured job opportunities being added to the site every week, and users have the option to “request a referral” if there isn’t a direct referral included from the start. These job postings cover a wide range of regions and industries such as technology, building and manufacturing, marketing, communications and more, and are reviewed by the ePosting team for accuracy and availability, where possible.
“We are excited to launch ePosting with the purpose of making referrals accessible, easy and rewarding for people everywhere,” noted William Chung, CEO & Founder of ePosting. “We’re working to transform the referral space by improving the job search system and addressing the psychological burden of career transitions through our core design principles, Beta testing insights and meaningful reflections about our platform.”
