Honest hiring platform
Real jobs. Serious candidates. Honest answers — every time. Where every listing is real, every candidate is serious, and everyone gets an answer.
How it works
Transparency on both sides. Real jobs. Real applicants.
For job seekers
Build your profile
Add your experience, salary expectations, and work authorization. Everything recruiters need to find and reach out to you.
Activate for $1.99/month
Pay only when you're actively looking. Cancel the moment you land a job. No long-term commitment.
Apply with confidence
Every recruiter has a public Trust Score showing how responsive they are. No more sending applications into the void and never hearing back.
For recruiters
Post real jobs only
Every listing expires in 30 days. Post only when you're ready to hire — Candid isn't for pipeline building.
Find serious candidates
Every applicant is a paid subscriber, actively looking and serious about their search. Salary expectations, location, and work authorization are visible upfront so you know before you reach out.
Close the loop
Give feedback on every decision. Your Trust Score is visible to all candidates and reflects how you treat people.
Features
Every feature exists to reduce friction, eliminate ghosting, and create accountability on both sides.
Trust Score
Every recruiter earns a public Trust Score based on how well they respond to candidates. Accountability built in.
30-day listing expiry
Every job listing automatically expires after 30 days. No ghost jobs collecting applications months after the role was filled.
On-platform messaging
All recruiter-candidate communication stays on Candid. No sharing personal contact info — privacy protected by default.
Location-based search
Search candidates within a radius of any city. Find local talent or remote workers — filtered by salary, auth, and education.
Candidate suggestions
Enterprise tier recruiters get smart candidate suggestions matched to their open roles based on salary, location, experience, and work authorization.
