Getting Started on Pagato | Worker Edition

Creating and Setting Up Your Worker Profile

To begin your journey with Pagato and access temporary work opportunities,

the first step is to create and set up your worker profile. This profile is your

digital resume and the key to matching you with the right job opportunities.

Here's how to get started:

Personal Information: Start by providing your essential personal details. This

includes your first name, last name, phone number, and date of birth. These

details are crucial for us to verify your identity and ensure that we can contact

you regarding job opportunities.

Can I modify my profile details after initial setup?

Yes, you can update your information, including personal details, resume,

and certifications, at any time through your profile settings.

Profile Picture: 
Upload or take a profile picture. A clear and professional-

looking photo adds a personal touch to your profile and helps employers

recognize you when you arrive for your shift. Ensure the picture is recent and

presents you in a professional light.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty uploading profile picture

Advise the worker to ensure the photo meets the specified size

and format requirements (under 10MB, JPEG or PNG format).

Address:
Enter your current address. This information helps us match you with

jobs in your vicinity, reducing commute times and making it easier for you to

accept shifts that fit your schedule.

Setting Your Preferences

Choose Industry:
Pagato caters to a wide range of industries, from transport

and distribution to retail, events, catering, hospitality, and cleaning. Select the

industry or industries where you'd like to work. You can choose multiple

industries to broaden your job search.

Is it possible to apply for jobs across various industries?

Absolutely. Pagato encourages workers to explore opportunities in

multiple industries to maximize their job options and experiences.

However, specializing in one industry may make you a more experienced

professional and optimize your offers in that industry.

Choose Jobs:
Within your selected industries, specify the types of jobs you're

interested in and feel qualified to undertake.

Years of Experience:
Indicate the total years of experience you have in each of

the job roles you've selected. This helps employers understand your level of

expertise and suitability for specific positions. Experience can significantly

impact the opportunities available to you, as some employers may seek

experienced professionals while others may welcome newcomers to the

industry.

Can I list non-traditional or informal job experiences on my profile?

Yes, any relevant experience that demonstrates your skills and abilities

can be included in your profile to showcase your versatility and work

ethic.

Upload Certifications:
If you possess any professional certifications relevant to

your chosen job roles or industries, this is where you upload them. Certifications

can include food safety for hospitality jobs, first aid for healthcare-related

positions, or forklift operation certifications for warehouse roles.

Which certifications are most beneficial for securing jobs on Pagato?

Certifications that align with your chosen industries and job roles are highly

valuable.
Here are some recommendations:

- MAPAQ Food Handler Certification

- ASP Certification for Alcohol Service

- Customer Service Excellence Certification

- RCR and First Aid Certification

- Class 1, 2, or 3 Quebec Driver's License

- Forklift Operator Certification

- Building Service Worker Certificate

Troubleshooting

Difficulty uploading files

Advise the worker to ensure the certifications and resume meet

the specified size and format requirements (under 15MB, JPEG,

PNG, or PDF format). Offer to walk them through the process of

converting files to the correct format.

Upload Resume:

A well-structured and updated resume is crucial. It should

highlight your work history, educational background, and any relevant skills or

achievements. Your resume gives employers a comprehensive view of your

professional journey and helps them assess your fit for their temporary roles.

Languages:

Language skills can be a significant advantage in many job

settings, especially in customer-facing roles or in regions with a diverse

population. Listing the languages you speak fluently (including any sign

languages) can open up additional opportunities and make you a more attractive

candidate to employers who need multilingual staff.

Availability:

Clear communication about your availability is critical for temporary

work. Indicate which days and times (day, evening, overnight) you are available

to work. Being as flexible as possible can increase your job matches, but it's

also important to ensure your availability reflects your actual free time to

maintain a healthy work-life balance.

How frequently can I update my job availability?

You can change your availability as often as needed to reflect your current

schedule, ensuring you only receive job matches that fit your time frame.
