Glassdoor Improves Mobile Apps for iPad and iPhone Making Job Searching Easier
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Mobile Apps Support Easier Resume Upload, 3D Touch to Preview New Jobs, Split
Screen Feature to Compare Salaries and More
MILL VALLEY, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 23, 2016) - With more than 50 percent of
monthly visits coming from job seekers on mobile devices(1), Glassdoor, the
world's most transparent jobs and recruiting marketplace, has unveiled several
new features for its popular Glassdoor Job Search mobile apps for iPad and
iPhone. The new features, allowing job seekers to upload their resumes easier,
preview jobs and salaries via 3D Touch, compare salaries and company information
side by side on one screen and more, are designed to make the job search and job
application process easier and faster from anywhere. The updated apps are now
live in the iOS App Store.
"With the ease and access of mobile devices and tablets, job seekers are
searching and applying to jobs from anywhere at any time. Glassdoor delivers a
rapid and highly responsive job search experience that combines the latest job
openings with first-hand insights into pay, company culture, benefits,
interviews and more," said Rob Sturtz, Glassdoor's head of mobile product
management. "Providing a great mobile experience is one of our top priorities as
it supports Glassdoor's efforts to create a far less nerve-racking and time
consuming job search process. We want to help people find a job and company they
love and to do that, we are working hard to remove some of the frustrations and
challenges that job seekers experience elsewhere."
Glassdoor's updated apps for iPad and iPhone are optimized to support several
features that are exclusively available to iOS users. In addition to being able
to search, save and apply to millions of jobs, customize alerts, and research
more than 12 million salary reports, company ratings and reviews, interview
reviews and questions, benefits reviews and office photos for 540,000 companies,
new features job seekers can now take advantage of include:
* Easier Resume Upload: Integrated with the iOS Document Picker, job seekers
can now upload their resume into Glassdoor from a multitude of third-party
apps, including resumes stored on iCloud Drive. With a variety of online
storage options to choose from, job seekers will be able to instantly upload
their resume into Glassdoor, allowing them to apply to jobs faster. (iPad
and iPhone)
* 3D Touch to Preview Jobs, Salaries and More: Using 3D Touch, job seekers on
iPhone can now preview key information on jobs, salaries and companies to
determine if they want to see further detail. For example, a job seeker can
use 3D Touch to view a specific salary report and will instantly see the
job's base pay and total compensation in a preview mode. The job seeker can
then decide to view additional pay details by pressing deeply on that
specific job, such as cash bonus, stock bonus, profit sharing, commission
and tips, or move on to another salary report. (iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s
Plus)
* Split Screen Experience to Research Workplace Insights From Employees: Job
seekers using an iPad can already view the latest job openings on the left
side of their screen, while viewing corresponding job descriptions on the
right side in one experience, but now, they'll enjoy the same seamless
experience when they search and compare salary reports, company ratings and
reviews and interview reviews. For example, a software engineer candidate in
San Francisco, CA will now see several local companies on the left side of
the screen, with detailed pay information for that specific job and location
for each company on the right side, allowing them to compare salaries on the
spot on one screen. (iPad)
* Multitask While Job Searching: Thanks to new multitasking features on iPad,
job seekers can now be even more productive as they search for jobs and
research salaries and companies. This means people can split their iPad
screen to show Glassdoor on one side while performing another task, such as
catching up on email, on the other side. (iPad)
* Sharing Workplace Opinions: Glassdoor iPad users will now be able to share
workplace reviews and ratings, salary reports and more to help others get a
better sense of what it's really like to work at their company, what their
earning potential could be, among other information job seekers want to know
when deciding where to work. (iPad; already available on iPhone)

rating out of 5.0 stars(2) in the App Store and are free to download.
