No Bots or Peak Loads: Jooble Implements a New Security System

International job aggregator Jooble has taken a step forward in enhancing its services for users and partners. The company has integrated a new end-to-end solution from Cloudflare, which includes Cloudflare Bot Management, an advanced bot-protection system, and a content delivery network (CDN).

Why it matters

In addition to regular job seekers and search engine bots, Jooble can be visited by “bad” bots. These bots crawl the entire website and create several problems:

• There is an additional load on the infrastructure, which can slow down page loading for all users, especially job seekers. This worsens the UX, which may cause job seekers to leave the site earlier.
• It distorts product statistics and makes it difficult for our data-analytics team to analyze user behavior.
• It redirects to our partners’ sites and affects the quality of traffic they see from Jooble.

To deal with the latter problem, we already used another bot management provider. However, that solution had limitations. It protected only the page leading to the client’s website but didn’t see the entire user journey from the job page to the partner’s website.

What has changed with the implementation of Cloudflare solutions

Greater protection against bots

Cloudflare Bot Management is a comprehensive solution that protects the entire Jooble site, not just individual pages. This allows us to detect up to 25% more bots, providing our partners with higher-quality traffic from real users.

Faster loading speeds

Thanks to Cloudflare’s CDN, content is delivered to users more quickly. So, visitors can browse jobs faster and stay on the site longer, increasing the likelihood of finding a suitable position and moving to the partner’s site.

Improved internal analytics

More accurate data about real users lets Jooble conduct more effective product experiments. For example, by comparing different job-subscription options we can make decisions that directly impact our partners’ conversion rates.

Why Cloudflare

Cloudflare is a reliable system that meets our needs. Its services are used by well-known companies such as IBM, Amazon, Microsoft, and Discord.

By implementing Cloudflare solutions, Jooble is making a move to meet the needs of our partners and users. With this update:

• Partners receive higher-quality traffic from real users.
• Job seekers enjoy faster and more stable site performance, which increases their engagement and chances of finding a suitable job.
• Jooble can conduct more precise experiments, the results of which directly translate into increased conversions for partners.

We continue to invest in technologies that make the job-search process more efficient. This upgrade is part of our commitment to hiring excellence. Jooble creates an efficient, secure, productive system for job search and hiring. Take the journey with us!
