SquadGoo

Quick vs Manual Search

Internal reference for how SquadGoo handles both matchmaking modes, plus the admin levers to enable/disable or tune them.

Quick Search overview

System-driven offers, live tracking and SG Coin timers for urgent hiring.

Managed by system + hirer

  • Auto matching can fire offers with match % scoring.
  • Hirers can cancel before another jobseeker accepts.
  • Chat/contact unlock immediately for 30 days; expires unless new offer is sent.
  • In-app payment optional but requires QR/code confirmation from both parties.
  • Timer holds SG Coins; jobseekers can acknowledge low balance or force recharge requests.

Live tracking stages

  1. 1Offer accepted
  2. 2Prep & ready window (e.g. 30 mins)
  3. 3Location sharing kicks in from 5 km out
  4. 4Arrival notification at workplace
  5. 5Arrived / start work confirmation
  6. 6Request in-platform payment (QR / codes)
  7. 7Timer + SG Coin hold until job complete

Admins can pause any stage (e.g., disable stage 6 payments if TFN roles are involved) without disrupting the rest of the flow.

Quick Search settings

Reference of user-facing toggles that admins may need to enforce.

Only funded quick jobs

Jobseekers can opt-in to only receive offers when recruiter wallets hold enough SG Coins for estimated hours.

Mandatory platform payments

Force SG Coin timers + QR code confirmation, skipping the manual stage-6 request.

Badge filters

Restrict quick offers to Bronze / Platinum / Gold recruiters or PRO jobseekers as required.

Auto matching

System sends offers on behalf of hirers; admins can pause/resume from here.

Manual Search overview

Lower-cost manual offers with negotiation and acceptance rating tracking.

Manual steps

  1. 1. Surf matched profiles

    Recruiters/Individuals see percentage matches, high-level profile info, but no contact details yet.

  2. 2. Send offer

    Offer carries expiry timer; jobseekers can accept, decline (with reason if >70% match) or request modification.

  3. 3. Matchmaking ends

    Once accepted, contact + chat unlocks for 30 days. No live tracking or in-app payments for manual jobs.

Acceptance rating is recalculated from total offers compared to accepted, closed, and declined. Poor ratings (below 70%) may reduce future visibility.

Negotiation + compliance

  • Acceptance rating impacts surfacing order.
  • High-decline reasons trigger admin review and possible rating drop.
  • Manual search fees ~50% of quick search fees.

Manual offers still respect max radius preferences set by jobseekers.

Chat + contact details unlock post-acceptance only, then expire after 30 days.

Admin overrides
