Applying to a job takes time and energy — and it’s usually not a priority at the end of a long work day. Kids need to get picked up, dinners needs to get made, and date nights need to preserve relationships. While most of us actually want to consider new job opportunities, we don’t have a way to do it that works around our busy lives.

That’s why we’re launching Opportune (beta): a free, discreet way to confidentially express interest in a working for another company — the company you actually want to work for.

It’s not a job board where you spend hours applying to countless jobs. Nor is it a matching company that simply connects you with the highest bidder.

Opportune puts you in the driver seat with job targeting. A job targeting strategy allows you to advance your career without spending countless hours applying to specific jobs and then getting forgotten. Opportune helps companies keep you top of mind for an extended period of time, to be considered for many future roles.

With Opportune, you select up to 3 companies you want to work for. Only staff at these companies can see your profile on Opportune; no current colleagues, no recruiters, not even your friends.

One-click integration with Linkedin makes it easy to setup your profile. Then you identify 1 to 3 companies you want to work for.

Opportune is designed to take as little time as possible and get you exposure to the companies you actually want to work for.

Opportune will let you know when someone reviews your profile and when they add you to their talent pipeline. When they find a good fit, they’ll reach out and invite you to consider a role.

HR teams are signing up to Opportune because it’s free to start and gets them access to unique candidates like you, who aren’t actively applying to jobs, but are certainly interested in new opportunities.

Create your free profile today and get exposure, even while you work. Alternatively, click here to learn a bit more about Opportune.

While you might not want to tell their world you’re on Opportune, at least tell a couple friends who are also keeping an eye out for new opportunities.
