We are happy to announce the release of our token, HVT, and our first user prototype. Our airdrop also begins today, see our earlier post on the airdrop for details on how to claim tokens. These are two milestones that we are proud to have reached and are excited to share with you.

Here’s everything you need to know about our user prototype release …

User Prototype Approach

With a technical prototype to come in the future, right now we’re focused on making sure we’re building the right thing, and building it right. Usability and good design are important for decentralized apps to get right for mass adoption to really happen. And this is something we want to bring to EOS with HireVibes, a Dapp that anyone can use easily.

This prototype is key for us to learn from. Do people understand HireVibes? Can they use the Dapp easily? What can we do better? We want to learn as much as we can from this prototype and feed that into the next iteration. And we’d love your help with this. We invite you to explore the prototype and let us know what you think in our Telegram channel or email us at: feedback@hirevibes.io

User Prototype Features

To start with, we’re focusing on what’s core to HireVibes with this prototype: 1) getting hired for a job and 2) donating to a good cause. Please note the jobs and charity data in our prototype are for demonstration purposes only.

Our user prototype features include:

Signup and Login

Signup involves connecting Scatter which will authenticate with the EOS network. This means, users will need to setup Scatter to use HireVibes. We know Scatter is new to many, so we’re here for any questions you have.

If you’re starting from scratch and don’t have an EOS account or Scatter setup you’ll need to: 1) Setup Scatter 2) Generate or import key pairs 3) Create EOS account 4) Link EOS account

For a deeper dive on setting up Scatter and creating an EOS account we recommend this guide by EOS Go to get started:

Onboarding

Onboarding involves adding basic information of who you are to your HireVibes profile and any job preferences, later you’ll see the jobs that are important to you.

Jobs

Job ads disclose the details of the employer as well as the minimum salary, the HVT reward (4% of the job’s pay) you could earn on successfully being hired, as well as the donation reward (1% of the job’s pay) you could earn to contribute to a good cause.

Each job ad describes the role in detail, and we highlight data on how many people have viewed the job ad and applied. This is where you can apply for the job (again, please note the jobs advertised in our user prototype are for demonstration purposes).

In a future version of HireVibes, you will be able to refer someone to the job. If the candidate you referred is hired, you’ll earn 2% of the job’s pay while another 2% goes to the successful candidate, and 1% goes to them to donate to a good cause.

Donations

A grid of qualified charities for you to view details of and donate to. In the future, you’ll receive a notification of how your donation was allocated. Check out our FAQ page for more information.

Wallet

A view for you to see the HireVibes transactions you received and, later on, transactions you sent. An example of one of these transactions could be a HVT token reward for being hired successfully.

We Need Your Help

The primary goal for us with this prototype is to learn — to learn if people understand HireVibes, if they can use the Dapp easily, and what we can do to make it a great experience. This will guide our product roadmap and impact the next version of our prototype. We’ll continue this cycle of iterations until we’ve delivered a truly useful and usable Dapp on EOS.

This is where we need your help! We ask that you play around with this user prototype and let us know about your experience in our Telegram channel or through email: feedback@hirevibes.io

This way we can act on your feedback promptly and intake your requests. We’re excited to hear your thoughts, and give thanks to the EOS and HireVibes community for your support. We really appreciate it.
