DUBLIN: Glassdoor, an online platform that has been described as a “TripAdvisor for the workplace”, is to create 100 jobs in Dublin over the next three years.
The California-headquartered company, which has launched a dedicated Irish site Wednesday, is to establish an office in the capital early next year.
Recruitment is currently under way for an initial 30 to 35 employees, to be hired over the next 12 months.
The roles available are primarily in sales, marketing and business development. Diarmuid Russell, head of Glassdoor International, said the company had yet to secure office space, but is looking for a city centre location. IDA Ireland will support the company’s investment here.
Glassdoor allows employees to post anonymous reviews of their companies, covering everything from salary details and workplace culture to what kind of questions to expect in interviews, and the effectiveness (or otherwise) of senior management. Job listings are also included on the site. The platform operates a “give-to-get” model, offering free access to all Glassdoor data once a user contributes their own content. The company operates nine country specific sites.
As with TripAdvisor, employers have the right to respond to negative reviews and, for those prepared to pay, can also post updates on vacancies and other company information.
