The Beta Version will contain key functionality

As our offering nears closer and closer to the closing date, we wanted to share a few of the key platform functionalities that will determine Hiway’s strong foothold in the online recruitment and blockchain industry. The possibilities due to rising challenges faced by traditional players and rapid developments in technology such as AI & cryptocurrencies mean that Hiway is perfectly placed to offer the market exactly what it requires — a seamless online interface that connects anyone with skills to offer with a job to be done.

The Functionalities of the Hiway Platform.

Functionality is a fluid and ever-changing process. Emerging technology will constantly improve the creation of matches between employers and employees and that is exactly what Hiway is focussed on. There is however a set of functional requirements to incorporate within the platform from the moment of launch. This arrives in the form of a Public Beta-test, a version that enables us to gather as much feedback as possible in the early stages. This means we will release a version of our product as soon as possible, not yet containing all functionality we envision but a version that will help us tailor the remaining development process towards the end user. Further down in this article you will find an insight into these key platform functionalities.

Smooth, sophisticated and efficient.

One great aspect of the Hiway platform is its easy-to-use, functional and aesthetically pleasing design. Through our social media style profile interface, it couldn’t be simpler for candidates to showcase work, share personal background information and host reviews from employers. Furthermore, an interactive job wall will display the work/job or candidates waiting for you. Packed with both jobs and employees filtered by industry sector, categories and filters will provide easy search mechanisms, enhanced by the following specific functionality:

Functionalities that will be found in the Beta Version.

Create a personal profile or one for your company

The Hiway platform will enable anyone to make a profile, enabling each user to share what skills they are most proud of and what experience or work they have done. At the same time, you are easily able to create a company profile. All it takes to prepare your company for everything that the platform has to offer is to add a custom profile picture and include company information in the form of a short bio.

Build a profile easily and begin accessing work or posting jobs.

Post a job

After a company profile has been created you’ll be able to post jobs. The types of jobs that can feature on the platform include Project-based jobs and recurring (monthly or weekly) jobs. When posting a job, our platform will effortlessly enable you to add all the information needed to find the ideal candidate for the job such as education, skills, and relevant experience.

Scroll through open listings

For those of you who are ready to work and have activated a working profile, the platform will offer an overview of the categories and filters to sort through various job results. Each listing will contain all the relevant information to help you discover a job to work on.

Communicate and share through the platform

When a freelancer is interested in accepting a specific job, both the employer and employee will be directed towards the messaging platform. In this environment, users will be able to chat and share information as well as communicate with other people regarding possible jobs and jobs that are being undertaken.

Payment module through blockchain Smart Contracts

When a job is accepted and people begin to work with each other, Hiway will make sure all information and payments are held within a Smart Contract. When the job is complete, this Smart Contract will make sure everything is settled securely. The process behind Smart Contracts is something that we will be communicating in more depth soon as well as going deeper into each one of the platform’s functionalities.

Smart contracts are a major component of the Hiway platform.

Reporting a bug

As the Beta will be the first-ever working version of the Hiway platform, inevitably there will be numerous improvements needed. This process of development is something that we would love to involve the first users in. To do this, on every page, there will be an option for users to instantly report bugs and errors or come up with suggestions to improve the platform. Cumulatively we hope that everyone involved will be as enthusiastic as we are in helping to refine and enhance what we have already built.

We are still only at the beginning of our journey, yet already, the Hiway platform is showcasing the endless possibilities presented by blockchain technology in becoming the online tailored marketplace for work. Pursuing an IEO enables us to drive towards the next stage of our development even quicker, helping us scale as envisioned while simultaneously expanding a community that understands the potential of the fourth industrial revolution.
