Picking the platform
With the option of so many platforms we had to pick one that could grow with the increased usage but also constantly evolve to improve usability. We were looking for:
- A functional back end that would feed directly into a user friendly website interface
- Lower software and maintenance costs where possible
Built on Softr, QRC's Tourism Careers Platform is able to turn Airtable Data into the user friendly website interface. It prioritises a future proofed solution.
Customisation by User-Type
The features had to be specific to QRC. Making sure that their students were visible on the platform while giving employers enough scope to ‘sell’ themselves. Softr enabled us to:
- Support logins from multiple user types; Employers & Job Seekers
- Students and employers can create their own student profiles and employer jobs
- Jobs are listed in a clear, appealing way. This included adding in filtering functionality so that job seekers could search for jobs by location and job type
