Recruiters have become the first line of cybersecurity defense.
Organizations face infiltration attempts through fake candidates and social engineering.
The strongest signal?
Warm introductions through trusted networks.
In the age of AI, job applications are a security risk for most companies.
One thing we keep hearing from job seekers: cold applications just don’t work.
The real unlock is knowing who can intro you, and how to activate those connections.
That’s what we’re building at Icebreaker: a trust engine for warm intros, not just another job board.
Who’s helped you land your best role?
Update!

Just under two weeks ago, we watched Farcaster come to life IRL in NYC
The Summit brought the high trust Farcaster community together IRL while Icebreaker NFC-enabled badges helped attendees tap to connect with one another, forging new connections and strengthening old ones
@v is right – PFP badges do make it easy to make great connections with internet friends!
We are excited to run it back for our *THIRD* FarCon with personalized Icebreaker badges that require zero setup
Simply tap to connect
Every IRL connection you make at FarCon is saved
As a team of Farcaster users, we are proud to join FarCon again as a partner alongside many local Farcaster ecosystem companies in our home of NYC.
Back for year three, we are proud to support with personalized NFC badges, a Builders Day Bounty for open data, and an icy treat at FarCon.
Looking forward to a week full of meaningful connections!
