How much does Climber.com cost?

You're in luck! Climber.com is completely free to climbers. We charge only the corporate types.

Is Climber.com anonymous?

Yes, until YOU choose to disclose your information to a prospective employer. This happens one of two ways - you review a career opportunity and decide that you like what you see, so you send an invitation to that employer to review your profile; or a prospective employer reviews your profile and sends you an invitation to review a career opportunity and you accept the request. We use a double-blind system to preserve your anonymity for all communication.

Why should I join?

Climber.com is a tool that allows you to get a better understanding of your career goals and the companies that will help you to reach them. Climber.com is for people who are not necessarily actively looking for a new job, but rather who are open to recruitment by companies that match their Career Fingerprint™.

What is a Career Fingerprint™ and how do I get one?

The Career Fingerprint™ is a visual representation of your career value set.

What is the process for creating a Career Fingerprint™ and Climber.com profile?

As a Climber you’ll undertake our patented work values assessment process, which tracks your views on different aspects of yourself and your work life. Once completed this generates the Career Fingerprint™, which assigns your points across seven different key dimensions - Leadership, Environment, Compensation, Innovation, Social Factors, Prestige, and Social Values. Then, the Climber.com profile section asks a series of questions that help Climbers identity what they are most passionate about.

How does Climber.com match me with prospective companies?

This is the magic! Your Career Fingerprint™ and each target company's DNA are compared to find the best environments for you. Additionally your basic skill sets are evaluated against member companies’ job requirements to complete a match.

What is a company's DNA?

A company's DNA goes beyond the heartbeat of a company—it’s what drives that heartbeat; the workplace values and vision that make up the core of an organization and motivate its best and most talented employees. At Climber.com, we have developed a methodology to identify a Company’s DNA that allows us to ensure that our Climbers can make the perfect match with their prospective employers.

How soon will it be before I start receiving requests from employers to review my profile?

We believe in matching you with companies whose company DNA aligns well with your Career Fingerprint™. You may find that we already have the perfect job waiting for you! If not we'll keep looking and when we find the right opportunity, we’ll contact you.

Can I search for jobs or do I just sit back and get recruited?

You can search jobs and invite companies to review your profile. So, if you are actively looking for a new job you can prompt recruiters to look into your profile, real-time.

I just want to look for jobs. Is this the right site for me?

There are plenty of job sites out there. What we do best is help you understand yourself and reveal what types of jobs/companies you will best fit. This entails completing a workplace values assessment process and answering some thought provoking questions. Climber.com is not a “one and done” process—we’re a career advancement tool that can help you throughout your working life. As you develop new interests and skills, your Climber.com profile will change as well, allowing companies to review the most up to date and relevant data about you at any time.

I am a recruiter or company who wants to find the best people for our open positions. What do I do now?

Climber.com is very selective about our partner companies. If you feel that your company offers a dynamic, forward thinking environment, please contact .
