Why has the search experience changed on Welcome to the Jungle?
You noticed changes in your search experience? These updates were designed to surface opportunities that truly match your profile. Here's why.
Fewer jobs, but the right ones
Scrolling through dozens of job posts hoping to find the right one is exhausting. Applying blindly, without knowing whether your profile truly meets the expectations, is a waste of time — your application often ends up lost in a pile.
From now on, we use your profile, your skills, and your aspirations to suggest jobs where you have a genuine chance of being contacted. That is our approach: quality over quantity.
A transparent and fair algorithm
Wondering whether our algorithm favors companies that pay the most? The answer is no.
Recruiters do not want more resumes — they want fewer, better-targeted ones. On your end, we want to save you from wasting time on unsuitable applications. Your interest and theirs align exactly.
Our algorithm matches your profile (skills, culture, values, ambitions) against all available jobs to surface the ones that truly fit — not the ones with the biggest advertising budget.
You're in control of your results
The more complete your profile and filters are, the more accurate the matches. The same applies to recruiters: the more detailed their job posts are, the better candidates they attract.
We are currently working on a system that will clearly explain why a job is considered a match, so you can refine your criteria in real time.
