Key takeaways for Brigade Jobs
Where is it heading?

Brigade Jobs remains exposed due to its stale inventory and lack of recent development, which will likely lead to further user attrition as competitors capture the local trades market.
- The lack of updates for over 800 days indicates a stagnant product, which limits the platform's ability to compete with active gig-economy rivals.
- User reports of stale job listings erode trust, which directly reduces the likelihood of repeat app usage.
The SWOT
- Skill-based filtering reduces time-to-hire for businesses
- Expanding company partnerships to increase job volume
