Frequently Asked Questions
What is Echo?
Echo is a professional feedback platform where verified users review their experiences with coworkers with "Resonance" (positive traits) and "Dissonance" (areas for improvement). All feedback is anonymous and verified.
How does verification work?
Users verify their current employment via LinkedIn and company email. You can only review someone if you have worked with them for at least 3 months, as verified by your linkedin profile employment history overlap.
How exactly can I review someone?
We encourage balanced rating to illustrate both positive and negative traits. You can rate someone on a scale of 1 to 5 for both "Resonance" and "Dissonance". The total Dissonance you have marked cannot exceed the total Resonance you have given out. You can also leave a comment to provide more context. If you want to give someone a Dissonance rating, you have to leave a comment to explain why.
Is my feedback anonymous?
Yes, all feedback is anonymous. The recipient can see aggregated ratings and comments, but not who provided them.
The one I want to rate is not on this platform yet. What can I do?
You can request to add them to the platform by submitting their linkedin profile URL. Once verified, their profile will be added to the platform and you can review them.
I see untrue feedback about me, what can I do?
If you claim your profile, you can flag abusive or inappropriate feedback for admin review. Our moderation team will review disputes and take appropriate action.
