Product Roundup: May 2024

We closed out spring with some fresh updates 🌸 Here’s what’s new:

Public Profiles

Sharing craft worker profiles just got easier: Craft worker profiles no longer require a Skillit account to view. This means that employers can now share craft worker profiles with team members across their organization even if they don’t have a Skillit account.

So…how does it work? When a craft worker matches an employer’s hiring requirements, they can simply copy their worker profile URL and share it via their preferred communication method - like email, SMS, or internal ATS.

Who can employers share profiles with? Anyone! Because all craft worker profiles are now public, sharing Skillit craft worker profiles amongst teams is easy: Everyone from hiring and HR managers to recruiters, site superintendents, and foremen and crew leaders can now have visibility into the sourcing process.

How does this benefit teams? This update makes it easier for more people on teams to lend their expertise to the sourcing process, ensuring they find the right craft workers and match their skills with their needs.


💭 ICYMI…

In case you missed it, here’s what we launched in April 2024:

  • Get Personal: Employers now have the ability to update their company URL and description. This information will show up in the sidebar when workers view their messages.

  • Sprechen Sie Deutsch? ÂżHablas español? Employers can now filter search results by more than 10 languages. This feature functions the same way as Skillit’s Certifications filter: workers need to speak all languages checked in order to show up in a search. So if you’re only looking for skilled workers who speak Urdu, this is the filter for you.

  • You’ve got mail: We added a small update to ensure your inbox will now be properly sorted by the last message sent/received.

  • A better experience: Using the “Years of Experience” slider, workers who fall outside your criteria will no longer disappear from the search results–they’ll just be ranked lower than the workers that do match that criteria.
