We spend
1/3 of our time at work, however our career track can get complicated and confusing. Current pace of development and exponential technology changes the way we work. We are expected to change jobs
5-7 times during our lifetime. Let's make it count, and work on something that is meaningful to us.
Research has shown, that 9 out of 10 people are willing to take less money if they would work on something meaningful. Are you optimising for dollar amount or for long-term sustainability or happiness?
In addition, the process of job search became tedious and frustrating, full of in-efficient middle-men, ATS's that even hiring managers hate and generally bad practices which have nothing to do with the candidate success on the job.
Ikigai jobs was created to address hiring challenges and help people find meaningful careers. We hope to match potential employers with the people who care and on the other side showcase company qualities and values.
It started as a simple newsletter to help friends find jobs that were available in our network.
