The problem

A job ad can’t show what makes your workplace great.

  1. 01

    Ads get lost

    When candidates compare jobs on pay and hours alone, smaller employers struggle to stand out.

  2. 02

    Interviews don’t show fit

    A 30-minute interview rarely tells you whether someone will work well with your team.

  3. 03

    New hires leave early

    “It wasn’t what I expected” is one of the most common reasons people quit in their first months.

Why Phonim

With Phonim, candidates visit your workplace before you make an offer. They get a real feel for the job, and you get to meet them where the work happens.

Win on your workplace

Your team, your culture, the way you work. Let candidates see the strengths a job ad can’t capture.

Meet people who want to use their skills

Candidates come looking for a place to put their skills and experience to work. They add their licence details with a link to the official register, so you can check them.

Hire locally

Fewer mismatches
