Helios project

Project Description

We developed a platform for a crew company that connects shipping companies and seafarers. With its help, employers post vacancies, and seafarers find suitable offers, creating an effective hiring channel.

Problem

The client faced chaos in crewing: many seafarers and companies, but there was no convenient tool uniting both sides. A digital ecosystem was needed to simplify recruitment and scale the client's business.

Solution

Key features:

First, for seafarers we created an advanced job filter that allows you to customize your search by every detail - from position and boarding date to fleet type. This helps you quickly find the perfect job. Second, on the vacancy page we reveal everything: position details, application instructions and tips for successful response. We have added job saving and subscription features for similar offers. And finally, a premium feature: with one click your resume is sent to all suitable vacancies, speeding up your search and making your experience truly comfortable.

Value:

  • Time saving: quick job search thanks to precise filters.
  • Convenience: all job details and instructions on one screen.
  • Personalization: saving vacancies and subscribing to suitable offers.
  • Automation: premium resume distribution to all relevant vacancies.

For seafarers, we created an advanced company search that allows you to filter employers by country, fleet type and region of operation. On company pages, seafarers see complete information: locations, vacancies, contact details, galleries and reviews. Seafarers can directly contact the employer, as well as save favorite companies. This allows seafarers not only to find work, but also to choose employers that meet their expectations.

Value:

  • Search for companies with filters by country, region and fleet.
  • Complete company profile: vacancies, contacts, reviews.
  • Ability to directly contact the employer.
  • Save interesting companies.

Convenient features include quick resume viewing and the ability to take notes directly on the profile. Thus, companies receive a complete set of data for comfortable, accurate candidate selection.

Value:

  • Full access to candidates' resumes, experience and certificates.

Blog section

We have implemented a special blog section on the site where the administration publishes news, articles and photos. This allows users to stay updated on changes, participate in discussions and better understand how the platform is developing. Thanks to the blog, an active community and trust in the service are formed.

Value:

  • Current news and articles.
  • Platform photos and events.
  • Discussion opportunities and user engagement.
  • Increased trust and awareness.
Premium section

We have introduced premium access for both seafarers and companies, significantly expanding their capabilities. For seafarers, this includes automatic application submission for suitable vacancies, email notifications, increased profile visibility and deadline reminders. Additional paid services include mass resume distribution, company verification and resume updating. For companies, premium opens up more precise filters and priority access to candidates. Thus, premium service provides maximum flexibility, visibility and efficiency.

Conclusion

The project solved the key market problem - the lack of a unified interaction system between companies and seafarers.

As a result, a full-fledged digital platform was created that simplified hiring processes, accelerated candidate selection and gave the business a tool for scaling. Thanks to automation, a convenient architecture and thoughtful user experience, we were able to reduce the operational burden, increase the efficiency of interaction between parties and launch the first financial results already at an early stage.
