FAQ. 


  • What's so special about cvift.?

    cvift. is a job platform where passive IT/Tech talents who are not actively looking but are interested in learning more about the best companies and vacancies on the market create an anonymous profile, define their skills and expectations and wait for companies apply to them with the perfect job offer.

  • Why should I register even though I'm currently not looking for a job?

    Wouldn't it be great to find the perfect job at a company in your area or around the world? At cvift. you only register once. If a company likes your skills, can meet your needs and wants to talk to you, you'll receive a personal message directly from that company. Then you decide for yourself whether you want to talk to the company or decline and wait anonymously for the next offer.

  • Does it make sense to register if I already use other platforms?

    Yes. Instead of recommending you just any job, we help you find the perfect job while remaining anonymous. At cvift. you decide for yourself whether and when you speak to a company or whether you prefer to remain anonymous. Until you accept a company's request, your profile remains completely anonymous. Companies have to make a decision based on your skills alone. Gender, age or other demographic characteristics don't play a role here.

  • I already get a lot of requests. How do you avoid job SPAM?

    We only focus on companies that are hiring for themselves. Recruiters, headhunters, etc. are excluded from cvift. Each company using our platform receives a limited number of credits to reach out to talents. Therefore, companies are forced to make concious and thoughtful decisions about whom they approach.

  • Can I also register if I'm actively looking for a job?

    Yes. But please keep in mind that our platform is designed specifically for passive talents who are not actively looking for a (new) job. Even though you cannot actively apply for jobs here, companies can see your skills and contact you directly if they are interested in speaking to you. So chances are good that you'll still find the perfect job here, too.

  • Which information can companies see about me?

    Companies only see a randomly generated ID number and your gender-neutral avatar, which you receive when you register. We are convinced that demographic characteristics such as gender, age, ethnicity etc. should not play a role when hiring people. For this reason, your profile will be completely anonymous from the start. Companies have to decide whether they want to speak to you entirely based on your skills.

  • I've been offered the perfect job by a company on cvift.. What happens next?

    Nothing. Congratulations! You can sign your new employment contract and be happy you''ve found your dream job on cvift.!

  • Who will contact me when I accept a request?

    Companies that have purchased a licence at cvift. receive individual access only. This is how we ensure that you're only contacted by a company representative who can give you first-hand insights about the company, the job, career perpectives and the actual work environment.

  • How much does it cost to sign up?

    For you as an IT/Tech Talent, signing up and using our platform is completely free of charge.

  • Which skills and disciplines does cvift. currently cover?

    We are currently focussing primarily on Software Development, DevOps, Cloud and Data Science/Big Data. If you work in one of these areas, you've come to the right place. And if you're not working in one of these areas or would like to start out in one of them, we still look forward to you signing up!

  • How can a company address me if I'm anonymous?

    When you receive an inquiry from a company, you can see what the company has to offer. If the request sounds like the perfect job, you can approve the request and thereby reveal your identity to the company. Then it's up to the company to get in touch with you. If you decline a request, you remain completely anonymous.

  • How do you match my expectations and needs with a company?

    When you sign up, we'll ask you to state your abilities, skills and expectations for the perfect job. A match only takes place when a company can exactly match your criteria and expectations. This way we guarantee that on cvift. you only receive inquiries that perfectly match your personal criteria.

  • Should I sign up when I've just started a new job?

    Yes. Just because you recently started a new job doesn't mean it's the perfect job for you (although we really hope so!). And even if it's the perfect job, with cvift. you can always stay up to date on which companies are interested in you and  your current market value.

  • I've accepted a request from a company. What happens next?

    Once you've accepted a request, your personal information will be shared with the company. The company will then reach out to you directly for an initial meeting.

  • I've declined a request, but changed my mind. Can I withdraw my rejection?

    When you decline a request from a company, you'll be asked twice if you really want to decline. Once you decline a request, you lose your chance to contact that company again. This is the reason why we recommend that you consider carefully whether to accept or decline a request before making a decision.

  • What's your commitment regarding diversity & inclusion?

    Simple. We believe that hiring decisions should be made solely based on skills, not demographics. Every person is unique and has individual strengths and weaknesses. We bring talents and companies together purely based on skills and expectations. This makes us the only platform on which approach, selection and hiring are carried out in an ethical manner and 100% GDPR-compliant.
