TikTok has acquired Contra, the popular freelance platform used by freelancers. Contra, which will be implemented within the scope of Jump, the mini-application integration launched in June; It will allow you to link your personal information such as your resume and portfolio to your TikTok account.
TikTok Jump, which enables content producers to interact with their followers more easily, is briefly defined as “mini-apps”. For example, as an instructor, you can prepare small-scale test questions with the Quizlet application and share them directly on your TikTok account. The company also supports services like Breathwrk, Wikipedia, StatMuse, and Tabelog.
TikTok and Contra partnership could make it easier for you to find a job
As part of the new integration, you will be able to directly link your account on the Contra platform to TikTok. As a content producer, you can display your work in the video sharing application thanks to the “View My Portfolio” button that you will add to your profile.
Followers will be able to view your profile directly on Contra when they click on the link you added. From here, they will be able to quickly access your portfolio, the services you provide, and your resume. They will also be able to send you a collaboration request thanks to the integration. Thus, you will be able to quickly access new job opportunities via TikTok.
Contra said the integration makes it easier to share professional work and get new leads. In addition, he stated that they are planning to launch another Jump application that will allow hiring companies to post ads on TikTok with a link.
Contra founder and CEO Ben Huffman said TikTok has become one of their leading platforms for people to get career advice and learn about tasks. In this context, he underlined that it makes sense for content creators to showcase their professional work on the platform.
This partnership is a new part of TikTok’s effort to increase interaction between people. The video sharing platform, which started to support the SharePlay feature of iOS 15 this week, allowed users to watch videos together with the “For Us” page it developed. Trying to attract different user groups with Jump applications, the company realizes its goal with new integrations.
