Our journey started at a 2×2 square meter office at Startup Lisboa, an incubator at Rua da Prata, nr 80. Our office was on the 4th floor, right next… to the toilet! It wasn’t ideal, and many “internet issues” would occur during video calls to hide people getting in and out of the toilet.
Back then, we were JOBBOX, but our research and market exposure had shown us persistent issues with spelling, punctuation and domain availability for it, and as we started planning our international expansion, we also foresaw problems with similarly named companies. So we had to let it go, and that’s how Landing.Jobs was born.
The new name reflected exactly what we were set out to do: connect the best candidates with the best jobs in tech. Since then the team kept growing, we revamped our platform, started organizing job fairs and tech conferences for both tech Talent and tech Recruiters and even expanded our business to new locations — some of which were successful, some of which became valuable lessons (of what not to do). Altogether, we have helped over 3000 people change their careers. And we don’t want to stop here.
We believe the future of work is changing. It’s not something that is going to start soon, it’s something we’re already living right now. Jobs for life are a myth. People are not interested in jobs for the sake of having a job, people plan and design career paths focused on professional and personal growth and this is where we want to be.
We want to help you find your next job, and the other after that, and all the jobs you are going to have in your life. We want to help you design a career path and understand the best job to take next for your ambitions. We want to help you manage your career.
And that ambitious vision is bigger than Landing.Jobs. That’s how Future.Works is born — an umbrella brand created to inspire the movement it represents.
Future.Works is a tech talent-focused brand leading a bold new approach to the tech world. We are here to challenge individuals and companies to keep evolving the way they connect. We are focused on creating products, services and projects related to the future of the tech industry in its various aspects, expanding the initial vision of the Landing.Jobs project to revolutionize the way we think and manage tech careers.
Landing.Jobs maintains its essence: matching tech talent with the right companies.But now we have a new logo to tell our story and represent our evolution.
We still want to bring people and companies together but now we will be matching people with their own future. We want to evolve and make the best of the tech industry, focused on Talent. We are here to shape a new future. Because the future is always in the making.
