The Russian job search service HeadHunter has decided to create its own analogue of the Western LinkedIn network for finding useful connections, acquaintances and work.

The project is called "Setka", it is already available in the web version, and it can also be downloaded from the App Store and Google Play.

The creators position the social network as a place "where you can remain yourself," imperfect, and at the same time build a working community<br>

So far, access to the social network is not open to everyone, only to developers and "friends" of the project. But ordinary users can still stand in line for an invite.

In the web version, you need to tap the button to receive an invite, go to the Telegram bot, consent to the use of your personal HH data, and wait

According to a leak of the social network's content, it can be seen that it is designed for user development in a professional sense. There is no place for entertainment content here.

"Setka" is both a social network with thematic communities and blogs, and a personal profile <br>

In addition to the standard statuses that are visible in the messenger, and personal profiles, there is an interesting option for questions for the community.

The user also has the ability to maintain their profile, but it is not yet clear what restrictions on content publication in the profile are set for "Setka"

It is expected that when fully launched, the network will be able to become successful in the Russian market, as it will transfer all business communication from social networks and Telegram channels to itself.

LinkedIn, which previously helped users in this area, was blocked in 2016 by the RKN for refusing to localize the personal data of Russians.
