WayUp Jobs 4+

Looks promising but needs a little tweaks

When entering your major, you need to select from the provided fields. New majors are created and some choices don’t capture the major as a whole. It would be good if we had the option to fill in the blank with a custom major instead of being forced to choose from what’s given to you and closest to what your major might be. Also on the homepage where the jobs are listed, it’s awkward to scroll to the bottom completely on older iPhone. The hot bar covers the bottom listing. Thanks!

This Is My 2nd Time Using The App, The First Time It Put Me On The Web And I Was Able To Find Places In Houston, Tx. So, I Went On The App Instead And I Put The Location For Houston, Tx, USA, But This Time It Says “Hmmm, No Matching Jobs Found!” So I Was Looking Confused Because Not To Long Ago I Was Able To Find A Few Places In Houston, That I Also Saved On The Web After I Logged In And On The App, It Said You Don't Have Any Saved.... So Now To The Next Day, I Tried Again M, But This Time I Used All The Filters They Had, The Only Ones I Didn’t Use Were From The Location And Its Because I Inly Stay In One Place “Houston, Tx” So That Was The Only One That Was Checked For Location, I Checked Every Single One In The “Industry” Part And Alternated The Filters From “Most Relevance - Recent” & From “All Year - Entry Level” & I Got The Same Thing... The Only Thing That Was Different This Time Is That The Ones I Had Saved Were No Available In The “My Jobs” Part... So If You Plan On Using This App, I Would Say It’s Better To Go Online And Do This.

Oh no! So sorry about this😔! We've actually just discovered what's been causing this issue, and we're releasing a fix for it ASAP. Once that's live would you be willing to give us another shot?

Also, we'd love to learn more about your job searching experience and how we can make it better. Would you mind reaching out directly to us at mobile.team@wayup.com?

Crashed repeatedly, 404 errors everywhere

At first it looks quite good. I was able to create a profile relatively quickly, and customize. Of course after making all the edits, it crashes and when I logged in again, all of my edits were gone back to square one. So I did it again and yet again, it crashed once more same result. Infuriating.
Also to note that it forces you to put in dates of your graduation which may lead to some age discrimination issues as well, for those of you who have been out of college a few years and making a career change.

So I went to look at jobs to see if it was even worth the trouble of trying to set my profile again, and simple answer no, don’t waste your time.

First there is no location service, so despite you putting in your location, it still will show you jobs across the country. I went on to my laptop to see if the full version was better but still the same, getting lots of 404 errors.

Next, it’s job category and titles are limiting, so if you have a few interests or career paths, you will be forced to scroll through hundreds of irrelevant jobs, which are also not relevant due to location too, yuck.

Final, it looks good, decent idea, but terrible functionality and connectivity issues bug this app making it unusable. Dreading to go logon to figure out how to erase my profile now.

Sheesh – we're so sorry we let you down 😭. First I want to thank you sincerely for really putting effort into using our app and website, despite the friction you experienced. It shows that you really believed in WayUp, and we fell short of your expectations, and I can empathize with how annoying that must have been.

Since you've reviewed, we've made a ton of improvements, included but not limited to: a new search algorithm, major bug fixes to reduce the 404s you experienced, and the ability to edit your profiles inside the mobile app.

Especially because you seem to have a great attention-to-detail, I'd love to have you reconsider using WayUp and learn more from your feedback. Honestly, it'd be amazing to hop on a call or just chat more over email as to how we can improve your experience further, now that we're doubling down on our mobile efforts. Feel free to shoot us an email at mobile.team@wayup.com to coordinate!

Again, we're super sorry, but think you could give us another chance🤗?
