How it works

Four easy choices.
Nothing to keep up with.

Browse when you need someone, act, and get on with your day. There is no timeline, no streak and no reminder that you haven’t checked in.

Pass Skip this suggestion. Nobody is told.
Connect Send a request with a short reason. They accept or decline quietly, and declining never prompts again.
Follow Keep someone within reach. Following doesn’t unlock anything they share only with connections.
Save Come back to a profile later. Only you can see your saved list, and saving sends nothing.
Why shown Every suggestion says why it is there: the field you chose, where you are, people you both know. Never a paid ranking.
Ask who can help Need a heating engineer for a commercial job? Ask the people you choose, once. It never becomes a public post.

Your profile, your rules

You decide who
sees what.

You set this before your card can be found, and you can preview your profile as a stranger sees it. You can also browse without publishing a card at all.

01 / People who don’t know you

Your card.

Photo, first name, headline and the skills you chose. No phone, no email, no work history.

02 / Your connections

A fuller view.

Contact details and work history, but only the parts you marked for connections.

03 / An employer you apply to

Your choice.

Only what you picked for that one application. Sharing more always needs a fresh yes from you.

Careers & Career Passport

Apply as yourself.
Bring your proof.

Jobs and apprenticeships from Dundee employers sit inside Connect. A Career Passport lets you apply with evidence you control, and a CV PDF is there for employers who still want one.

  1. Add your experience Anything you enter yourself is marked as yours until someone confirms it.
  2. Ask the employer to verify it An authorised contact confirms the organisation, your role and your dates — or suggests a correction.
  3. Choose what each employer sees Pick the records for each application, preview the employer’s exact view, then send.
  4. Track it without chasing See where your application is and what you shared. Updates when something changes, not engagement nudges.

Straight labels

Every badge means
one thing.

Trust signals are kept apart on purpose, so nobody reads more into a label than it says.

DundeeBusiness member
The organisation has an active membership. It says nothing about a person’s identity or skills.
Relationship confirmed
Someone authorised at the business confirmed this person works with them. It grants no admin access.
Employment verified
The employer confirmed the role and dates. That is a fact, not a rating of the work.
Reference
A separate statement written and signed by a named former manager. You read it before anyone else does.

For businesses

Your people.
Connected to Dundee.

Connect runs on the same DundeeBusiness account as your business profile. Confirm who works with you, verify past staff when they ask, and post jobs and apprenticeships that show up on your team’s cards.

Your staff own their profiles. Confirming a relationship never lets a business edit or publish someone’s profile.

Straight answers

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Can I join yet?

Yes. Creating a profile is free. You choose who sees each part of it before anyone can find your card.

Is it another social network?

No. There is no feed, nothing to post and nothing to keep up with. You look for people when you need them, and requests go only to the people you choose.

Does my employer control my profile?

No. A business can confirm that you work there, and you decide whether that shows on your card. It never gets to edit, publish or hide your profile.

What does “DundeeBusiness member” mean on someone’s card?

That the business they are linked to has an active DundeeBusiness membership. It is not a check on the person, their identity or their qualifications.

What happens to my Career Passport when I apply?

The employer sees only the records you picked for that application, and you see exactly what they will see before you send it.
