Enables occupational tribalism – members select the tribe or tribes applicable to them – e.g. nurses, engineers, teachers, .Net developers »
People by their very nature are tribal. We congregate. Group membership is a big part of our lives – family, school, sport, work, clubs, politics, religion, the place in which we live, etc. Within each of our tribes, we form a close collection of allies. We unite with people who share our interests and beliefs. There’s typically shared characteristics and underlying sense of purpose between members of the same tribe, regardless of geography. In uncertain economic times, support from one’s tribe is even more important.

Encourages conversation between tribe members, using micro-blogging as the foundation »

In any employment context there’s a group of people actively looking for job opportunities. But there’s an even larger group – often up to 60 percent of those currently working – that would consider another employer if a better opportunity presents itself. TribeHQ enables an employer to target and showcase their opportunities to a tribe. It enables a direct conversation between employers and those tribe members open to job opportunities, again using micro-blogging. Think job board meets social networking! Think interactive job board! Think “micro-jobbing”! TribeHQ uses an algorithm to automatically match tribe members with jobs, effectively removing the clutter inherent with directory-based job boards.
