Find workers — talent pool
Novida providers can browse a talent pool of disability and care worker profiles — role, location, availability and checks — and invite candidates to apply for a job. The worker’s phone and email stay private until they accept the invitation, so hiring is consent-first.
Posting a job and waiting is not the only way to hire. Novida lets providers proactively browse a pool of disability and care workers who are open to work, and invite the strongest candidates to apply for specific roles — turning hiring from a passive wait into an active search.
It is privacy-first by design: you see a candidate’s role, location, availability and verified checks, but never their contact details — until they accept your invitation. That makes outreach respectful, keeps workers in control of who reaches them, and means the responses you do get are far warmer.
For hard-to-fill roles — overnight shifts, regional locations, niche qualifications — the talent pool puts you in front of available workers immediately, instead of re-advertising and hoping. Accepted invitations flow straight into your applicant pipeline, so there is no double handling between sourcing and shortlisting.

Frequently asked questions
Does it cost extra to browse the talent pool?
Browsing and inviting workers is part of your Novida provider plan — there is no per-contact charge, so you can source as actively as you need.
How is this different from posting a job?
Posting a job waits for workers to find and apply to you. The talent pool lets you go the other way — search for available workers who match and invite them directly, which is ideal for hard-to-fill or urgent roles.
Can I see a worker’s contact details before they accept?
No. You can see their role, location, availability and verified checks, but their phone and email stay private until they accept your invitation to apply. This keeps hiring consent-first.
Can a worker decline my invitation?
Yes. Workers can decline, and their contact details remain private if they do. You will see the invitation marked as declined so you can move on to other candidates.
Do workers see who invited them?
Yes. Workers see your provider name and your role-specific message, so they can make an informed choice about whether to accept and share their details.
What happens when a worker accepts?
Their contact details unlock for you, and they are added to your applicants for that role as a shortlisted candidate, ready to progress.
