Tech Crunch elaborated how the app works. Both employers and workers are required to create a profile, stating their informations. For workers, the profile would list language skills, availability and work experiences. The selection process is similar to dating app Tinder, where employers can view candidates' profile and select "yes" or "no" for every candidates the appeared on the app. Workers can also view employers' profile and choose the ones that interest them. 

The interface also enables employers and workers to connect directly via chat once they got a match. The chat can be utilized to resolve questions from and for both parties, or arrange possible follow-up interview. To simplify the process and make it more effective, the app was designed to use a location-based search as a filter to find workers and employers. 

Job Today targeted mostly blue collar workers especially in retail, hospitality, delivery drivers or logistics, and the beauty industry. As for the employers, the app aims to provides their service mainly for small business markets. The concept was developed from the observation and experience that regular business owners in the retail industry often don't really need a full CV. And so the app seeks to provide few relevant elements to be considered by employers to make the hiring process more simple and a lot easier.
