Account Setup Offered

How to Create Your Offered Account

Honestly, signing up on Offered doesn’t have to be a headache. We built the process to be quick and friendly, based on what users tell us they actually want. You’ll start at our homepage, click “Sign Up,” and then pick the account type that fits you best. This choice is important because it tailors the features and dashboard you’ll see.

Once you pick your type, you’ll fill out a form with your email, password, and some basic info. The form checks your inputs instantly, so you don’t waste time submitting errors. After that, you’ll get a verification email – usually within a couple of minutes – to confirm your address.

Step-by-Step Account Creation

Let’s break down exactly what you’ll see on screen and what you need to do:

1. Visit offered.com and click the “Sign Up” button in the upper right corner.
2. Select your account type: Job Seeker, Employer, or Agency.
3. Fill in your email (your username), create a password (8+ characters, letters & numbers), and enter your full name.
4. If you’re an employer or agency, enter your company name.
5. Optionally add your phone number – it’s handy for recovery but not required right away.
6. Submit the form and check your inbox for the verification email.
7. Click the verification link within 24 hours to activate your account.

If you don’t get the email, check your spam folder or try resending it after a short wait. Once confirmed, you’re ready to complete your profile.

Finishing Your Profile to Get the Most Out of Offered

Here’s where the magic starts. The more info you add, the better our AI understands what you want – whether that’s the perfect job or the right candidate.

For Job Seekers

You’ll fill in details like your current role, skills, and what kind of jobs you’re aiming for. You can specify preferences like remote work, salary ranges, and company cultures you thrive in. Honestly, the more specific you are, the smarter the job matches become.

For Employers

Tell us about your company size, hiring volume, and typical roles. You’ll also pick how you want interviews scheduled and which HR tools you’re already using. This helps our platform fit seamlessly into your existing workflow.

• Job title and experience level (job seekers)
• Industry and company size (employers)
• Hiring challenges and recruitment goals (employers)

Once your profile is set, you’ll land on your personalized dashboard with tools designed just for you.

Exploring Your Dashboard: Where AI Meets Action

Job Seeker Dashboard

Your dashboard is your job search command center. You’ll see active applications, AI-recommended job matches, upcoming interviews, and insights on how well your profile is performing.

Employer Dashboard

Employers get a clear view of their candidate pipeline, interview automation status, and detailed analytics that help speed up hiring decisions.

Setting Up Your AI Job Matching Preferences

Now, let’s get your job matching tuned up. Our AI system is powerful but thrives on your input. You can create multiple preference profiles, so if you’re open to different roles or locations, the AI can handle that.

How to Build Your Preference Sets

Start with your must-haves: these are deal-breakers like minimum salary or remote work. Then add preferred qualifications that you’d like but aren’t essential. You can even mark some things as deal-breakers so the AI knows to exclude them.

• Create primary preferences for your ideal role
• Set secondary preferences to explore new opportunities
• Use the thumbs up/down feedback on matches to train the AI

From our experience, users who actively provide feedback see match relevance jump from about 20% to 80% in just a few weeks.

Interview Automation: Making Hiring Less Stressful

For employers, interview automation is a game changer. It handles everything from screening questions to scheduling and reminders, so your team can focus on making decisions instead of chasing calendars.

Configuring Automated Screening

Set up question banks from our templates or create your own. Define scoring rules and thresholds so candidates who don’t meet criteria are filtered automatically. You can even automate follow-ups or flag candidates for human review.

Streamlining Interview Scheduling

Connect your calendar (Google, Outlook, etc.) and let the system find available times for everyone. Candidates get automatic confirmations and reminders—no more back-and-forth emails.

Privacy Settings and Troubleshooting Tips

We take your privacy seriously. You control who sees what and how your data is used. For job seekers, that means choosing which profile pieces employers can view. Employers decide how candidate data is handled and who can access it internally.
