Please reach us at hello@phdate.ch if you cannot find an answer to your question below.
We are a small group of PhD students and postdocs at the University of Bern. We created PhDate.ch during our spare time (yes we are nerds, what did you expect haha)
We think that current dating apps are quite dehumanising (swiping) by design and make the whole process feel more like a job application.
In addition, having a common background (in this case, academia) can make relating to someone a bit easier, so we thought that there is something we can do to help people make more meaningful connections!
It's very simple, just click on the "join now" button above, and you will be redirected to a Google form. Once there, complete the fields and click submit. We then forward the form to our algorithm which then matches you to someone based on your profile. When there is a match, both of you will receive an email and then it's up to you to start a conversation. We recommend setting up a real-life meeting asap so that you can see if there is a spark :)
This depends on the total number of participants and engagement by the community. As this is a new service, we anticipate having relatively few users in the initial weeks of operation, so it might be a while before you are matched with someone. So to answer your question, it could take anywhere from a few hours, to a few weeks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yes, the service is completely free of charge
