See the job opportunity closest to you
According to Tencent, people looking for odd jobs (many of whom are older workers) tend to find jobs close to home, and location-based "gig markets" can recommend suitable job opportunities for them more accurately. Tencent said that for college graduates, if they want to find more job opportunities in emerging industries, it may not match the platform's features.
Although it is called a "gig market", in fact, many factories directly recruit formal general workers and skilled workers. Up to now, the "gig market" has launched more than 3,000 positions, including warehouse keepers, consumer controllers, beads, canteen handymen, machine sewing and other odd workers, as well as operation managers, quality control supervisors, mechanical and electrical installation supervisors and other management personnel, indicating the monthly salary, specific company name and address, users can sort by distance, filter out the attached positions.
In addition, WeChat Pay has also launched a "micro-work card" for the gig market, which provides services such as signing, real-time location and clock-in, attendance, and even daily settlement insurance for the gig market by integrating electronic signatures and micro-insurance, helping gig workers not only find jobs, but also obtain security. At present, the "Micro Work Card" has covered more than 10 million gig workers, helped the gig group increase their income by 20 billion yuan, and covered more than 1.7 million people with daily settlement insurance.
At present, the function has been launched in Jiangmen, Guangdong, Tencent said that the jobs in Jiangmen's [gig market] come from the postal salary platform under the Guangdong Provincial Postal Branch, and the platform has also been recognized by the Jiangmen Human Resources and Social Security Bureau.
