💸 Recruiters enjoy 50% off. 🦄Job applicants earn $5 for building your profile. Hey P-hunters, I’d like to introduce you to Zinc, a blockchain-based hiring toolkit ⚡Zinc’s work identity & reputation tools bring efficiency and trust back to hiring through self-sovereign technology. My story 📗 I’ve spent seven years helping tech companies build teams. I got pretty fed up with the way that companies hire. The way data is wasted, inefficiency is rife and privacy is disrespected. The problem 😿 The data & effort individuals put into interviewing is owned by every organisation they meet. Reputations employees build within organisations are lost every time they move on. ~ Time - on average it takes 3 months to fill a technical role. ~ Cost - on average it costs 10% of a roles salary to fill. ~ Privacy - on average data is received on 250 applicants. The solution 😺 ~ Automated referencing: Source deep, qualitative insights into applicants. ~ Interview proof: Give candidates proof of your achievements in your interview process. ~ Privacy preserving right-to-work ID check: Everlasting proof of right to work. We’re building a toolset to capture data collected by companies across the job applicant and employee work lifecycle leading to more fulfilling work for everyone. The tech 🏗 Zinc is made possible by blockchain and smart contract technology. The platform records proof of candidates’ work data in identity contracts (👀see the proofs in our block explorer above ^^). Recording this information on a blockchain means it can be verified in a transparent and trustworthy fashion. Data like "proof of right to work" & "proof or work experience" only needs to be recorded once. Then workers can reuse them throughout their careers. 😸Discounts & bounties for all hunters 😸 ~ For recruiters or hiring managers we're offering 50% off for 3 months. Email hello@zinc.work ~ For individuals or job seekers looking to build out their work identity - we are offering a $5 bounty for 3 completed work proofs.

Thanks for posting @bentossell

I signed up today because I've had the problem before. I'm a contractor and often fight with agencies who just want to pump me for information then dump me.

Pros:

Pros: I'm a contractor, I would like to avoid sharing my passport with every agency that makes money from me and is often unreliable

Cons:

Cons: The homepage video doesn't work in Safari

Hi Jamie, thanks for your feedback. We have found anecdotally that contractors have experienced data abuse in hiring more than most. Occupational hazard? It shouldn't be, we believe that everyone should have the right to privacy.
