PROCESS
CREATE PROFILE
On profile.practicalfriendship.com (hosted by Limesurvey) you answer an in-depth questionnaire regarding what you primarily value about your friends and what your friends primarily value about you. The second section then looks at your hobbies and interests. This step takes 20-25 minutes, and only needs to be done once resulting you receiving a Chiffre code for your profile.
REGISTER PARTICIPATION
On registration.practicalfriendship.com you then register your chiffre with the groups or circles in which you wish to be matched with other people. This can be the group of people at a specific company site or the virtual global lunch-club of your company.
​
Depending on the requirements of your company it may be the case that a separate internal registration site is set up for this too.
ALGORITHMIC MATCHING
Once 5 people have registered within a circle we will run the matching, and if suitable matchings occur, notify registered people or the circle organizer to facilitate contact making.
Please note that it takes about 25 minutes to complete this questionnaire on a PC, Laptop, Tablet or Phablet. It is a little bit more difficult on a small screen Smartphone.
​
It is best done having sat down with a coffee or nice glass of wine.
​
​(The questionnaire is hosted on Limesurvey, a GDPR compliant open source based survey provider hosted in Germany)
