NEW YORK TIMES - Melissa Hobley, Tinder's CMO, balances her role at the dating app with being a real-life matchmaker. She is the chief marketing officer of Tinder, a position she’s held since August 2022. Before that she worked for OkCupid for over five years. Despite Tinder's success, Hobley acknowledges the value of in-person connections. She believes dating apps are crucial for those who can't easily meet people offline, like single parents or individuals in the LGBTQ+ community. Research shows only 8% of offline daters find it easy to meet someone in real life, highlighting the need for alternative ways to connect. She advocates for a mix of digital and real-life dating methods.
