Launching Imojob, a Senior Expert Reemployment Platform for Middle-Aged and Older Adults' Second Act in Life

Outsourcing company SaraminHS recently announced the launch of ‘Emojob,’ a gig economy-based expert matching platform.

As the hiring market is being restructured around experienced professionals, companies tend to prefer specialized personnel who can start work immediately by job category. Consequently, the ‘gig economy’ model?where workers are hired temporarily based on demand and contracted for specific tasks?is rapidly expanding across various industrial fields.

Emojob is a freelance expert matching platform that differs from other talent matching platforms by focusing on middle-aged and senior professionals who have left fixed positions due to early or voluntary retirement. Rather than career breaks, it aims to improve quality of life by enabling continued social roles and solving economic issues. It also supports startups and small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) with limited staffing budgets by providing verified experts. The platform stated, “Considering the public value of social issues emerging in the job market, we have reduced the burden on both employers and job seekers by setting matching fees at about one-third of the industry standard.”

The senior expert matching platform Emojob registers experts who have passed document screening based on resumes and portfolios. These experts have experience as team leaders in large or mid-sized companies or as executives in SMEs in fields such as business strategy, investment attraction, and asset management. Verified experts are matched to projects that meet the hiring company’s requirements and perform tasks in their specific fields for the necessary period, providing a senior expert matching service.

The platform also offers various content for job seekers. It provides the latest information that is hard to find elsewhere, including employment information for senior experts, healthcare, financial management, and hobbies. Senior experts can use the Emojob platform to organize their resumes and portfolios centered on their work capabilities, enabling successful job searches and career advancement.

Corporate members also enjoy multiple benefits. After posting job openings, companies can quickly match and compare highly skilled personnel with the required expertise. They can also conveniently check real-time progress using mobile services. Especially for startups and SMEs, which face heavy burdens in hiring full-time specialized personnel, the platform allows them to utilize high-level talent under desired conditions for the required period without time or cost burdens.

An Emojob representative said, “To reduce the hassle for companies seeking professional senior personnel, we launched Emojob with a registration data-based matching system that uses video business cards attached to resumes for contactless interviews, eliminating the need for first-round interviews. This system helps quickly and easily find suitable experts, creating jobs for senior professionals and addressing the shortage of specialized personnel in SMEs.” They emphasized, “In the rapidly growing senior market, Emojob will be an innovative gig worker employment service that creates a win-win situation for both companies and senior experts.”

Meanwhile, during May, the Emojob platform is running an event offering Starbucks Americano gifticons to all new job-seeking and hiring members upon simple registration. Additionally, hiring members receive a commission-free event for their first project contract. Full details about the event are available on the Emojob website.
