As you guys may have noticed in the MSM and the blogosphere, the project I have been doing IA, UX, UE, concepting, wireframing, interaction design, logo design, naming, branding, graphics, interface design and more for during the past year went live last night.
So what is it? Glassdoor.com is opening the doors to companies everywhere by allowing anyone to find and anonymously share real-time reviews, ratings and salary details about specific jobs for specific employers — all for free. What sets us apart is that all our information comes from the people who know these companies best – employees. Think of it as the Yelp or TripAdvisor for planning your career.
The biggest interaction challenge with the site was the "give to get" model for posting and seeing content:
This means to access all the employee reviews and salaries of the community, you must first share an anonymous review or salary of your own. To give you a preview of the value in this transparency, we’re offering sneak peeks for four technology companies in the SF Bay Area (Cisco Systems, Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo!) where you can see all reviews and salaries before contributing.
Basically, a person has to take a "survey" to get full access to the site, and we tried to make those surveys as fun and painless as possible.
Please take a look, and since most of you like your jobs, give your company some props.
Feedback is very welcome - for me, or for the company. jd - - Jeffrey D.
