According to an Avito Work survey conducted in July 2024, 61% of Russians participated in career testing or career guidance activities. At the same time, 81% of respondents believe that such tools help to make a successful decision when choosing a profession.

During the test, participants are invited to choose the desired profession. This information is then used to filter vacancies on Avito Work - the system takes into account the user's answers and preferences in order to automatically create a selection of suitable offers for employment at the end of testing.

At the end of the test, the user receives his professional profile, reflecting his career priorities and values ​ ​ presented in the form of tags. Each tag is accompanied by a detailed text explanation revealing the meaning of this value in the context of the user's professional activities. This approach is designed not only to help job seekers better understand their priorities when choosing a job, but also gives them the opportunity to communicate more effectively with potential employers.

Immediately after receiving the results, the system offers the user the opportunity to go to an automatically generated selection of vacancies corresponding to his profile with one click. So the applicant can immediately assess his capabilities and start studying offers on the market.

Creating a section for young people

Avito Work has created a section for young people, where there is a large selection of vacancies for new applicants from 16 to 24 years old. Now on the platform you can find a suitable job or part-time job even for those who do not yet have the experience to receive a decent income and be independent. The company announced this on May 24, 2024.

Due to the shortage of personnel, young specialists in the labor market are becoming more in demand every day. In turn, employers are increasingly expanding the boundaries of hiring: in particular, they employ young specialists. An important role is played by the beginning of the summer season, when more young specialists become on the market, and the number of job offers for them increases. So, in April 2024, the number of vacancies for students and specialists without experience increased 2.2 times compared to the same period last year. Therefore, the developers of the Avito Work platform made a category section for students and finalized a filter looking for vacancies for young workers.

For May 2024, on the platform, young applicants from 16 years and older can find vacancies with a decent salary from trusted employers. Thanks to this section, "for students," the service offers vacancies both part-time and options for working on a shift schedule. There are also offers in the form of part-time jobs with daily payments.

According to Avito Work's research, 76% of young Russians aged 18 to 25 have part-time experience. 37% of young people surveyed most often find part-time jobs out of necessity when they need additional funds. 26% of survey participants are more likely to find part-time work during vacations, vacations or holidays, and 18% often take part-time work situationally, when inspiration or interest in a specific project or area appears.

In addition, the platform has improved the relevance of issuing vacancies for a young audience using the "Ready to Consider" parameter. This criterion helps the young applicant understand whether the employer is ready to consider the resume of a student or candidate over 14/16 years old. Previously, employers could use this parameter for any vacancies, which led to illogical combinations of job description with it. At the moment, the issuance of job offers for job seekers has become more relevant, since the platform automatically limits the use of irrelevant parameters. For example, if the profession requires high qualifications or the presence of a category, grade, driver's license. In addition, the issuance of vacancies for young professionals will not include offers with a rotational schedule or full time, as well as a requirement for work experience of 1 year or more.

All changes are already available on the platform in the "Work for Students" section.

Add a response feature to your mobile app

The "responses" function has been added to the Avito Work mobile application. The company Avito.ru announced this on June 13, 2023.

For the convenience of employers and job seekers, digital services and job platforms are constantly developing their product. The function allows you to quickly view the contacts of interested candidates and contact them in one click. This functionality is especially relevant for hiring in small and medium-sized businesses.

Using the application, you can learn information about the applicant, contact candidates quickly and conveniently. The results of the conversation with the applicant are recorded in the messenger. For example, it is possible to note that the response is rejected or in processing, as well as immediately see the entire list of interested candidates.

The emerging capabilities of the application are especially relevant for micro and small businesses, when the company does not have a separate HR department, and an employee is needed here and now.

The trend towards fast employment does not cease to lose relevance. Employers compete for employees, those who speed up their employment processes and are ready to make a good offer in a short time. Candidates are also interested in getting to work as soon as possible. As a link between job seekers and employers, we are constantly improving our product. The ability to watch candidates' 'Responses' at any time on a mobile device allows micro, small and medium-sized businesses to close positions faster. So, the owner of the flower shop will be able to quickly find a florist, and the bakery manager will find the seller in a couple of clicks, "said Artyom Kumpel, managing director of Avito Raby and Avito Services.

This tool will allow businesses to remain flexible in dealing with human resources management issues. Search, hiring and adaptation of freelance performers thanks to automation systems are faster - you can hire an employee in just a day. According to Avito, 27% of people find work in less than two weeks. On the Avito Job platform, job seekers interested in getting to work quickly note their resume with the "I Can Get Out Tomorrow" badge.

Appearance of detailed company reviews

Avito To work Detailed reviews of companies appeared on. Now the opinions of employees can not only be viewed in the form of assessments on individual parameters, but also read in order to learn in advance about all aspects of working inside and make a confident decision. This was Avito.ru reported by representatives of the company on March 2, 2023.

To make feedback more informative and useful to job seekers, the feedback system has been completely transformed. Thanks to the innovation, users were able to leave not only an assessment, but also a detailed text review of the employer company.

The system operates as follows: Users who have interacted with the employer give a rating and leave a detailed comment. In it, they can describe how the work works, what attitude towards employees, what features and nuances should be paid attention to, etc.

Detailed comments give the candidate the opportunity to draw up an objective opinion about the employer and make an informed decision. For the convenience of analyzing reviews, they can be filtered by novelty or the nature of the assessment. The rating of the enterprise on Avito Work is calculated on the basis of its ratings in reviews, as their arithmetic average. All reviews and ratings are in the employer's profile on the platform, undergo strict moderation and verification by smart algorithms in 24/7 mode. Feedback from employees already has a third of the companies hiring for Avito Work.

Labour market mostly continues to be market an applicant. This means that people, regardless of scope and experience, have a large selection of employment options and the ability to carefully choose the most suitable ones. For example, at Avito Work, where more than 20.5 million are looking for work every month, person several million offers from employers are presented throughout, to the country including small medium and large businesses. According to observations, candidates analyze feedback on a potential employer at each stage of employment - before responding to a vacancy, before an interview and even after receiving a job offer. And the quality of feedback is one of the determining factors when choosing. This format of assessments of companies on the platform will be a valuable help for users both in active and passive search. Reviews directly affect the reputation of employers and form the basis of a positive HR brand in the eyes of applicants and employees. So, to develop an HR brand, it is worth asking current and former employees to share feedback about the company on online hiring platforms. This will help attract talented personnel who will strengthen the team and help the business develop, commented Artyom Kumpel, managing director of Avito Rabota.

When receiving a review with a low rating, it is better to immediately work out a negative comment: explain why this or that situation has developed, and propose solutions. If the employer considers that the review was left incorrectly, he can contact the support service.

The appearance of reviews about companies will be an additional help when choosing a place of work.
