TribeHQ: Connect with others in your professional life

TribeHQ is a micro-blogging platform that allows anyone to connect with their profession. By connecting with their Tribe (e.g Nurses, teachers, engineers) members can converse with others about their occupation, get job opportunities and interact directly with employers. TribeHQ is a web-based platform that:

• Enables occupational tribalism – members select the tribe or tribes applicable to them – e.g. nurses, engineers, teachers, .Net developers: People by their very nature are tribal. We congregate. Group membership is a big part of our lives – family, school, sport, work, clubs, politics, religion, the place in which we live, etc. Within each of our tribes, we form a close collection of allies. We unite with people who share our interests and beliefs. There’s typically shared characteristics and underlying sense of purpose between members of the same tribe, regardless of geography. In uncertain economic times, support from one’s tribe is even more important.
