In an extension to the Series B
funding round, Job Today raised $16Mn from 14W Accel and Mangrove. This mobile
app specifically devised for job hiring was launched in 2015, with an aim of
helping the small and large companies across Europe get access to the top
talent. This recent investment will be used by the company to expand its
presence along several countries. Currently, the company has amassed a 46% YoY
increase in the number of applications and has registered over 4,00,000 small
businesses to its portal.
So, what makes the company with a staff of just 50 people gain access to the best companies in the world, and help them with talent management?
We already have job search mobile applications like Uber, Task Rabbit
and Handy that help the people gain access to the blue collar jobs available in
the market. How then does Job Today make things different for the UK market?
The basic difference lies in the approach and the way the application
helps people get access to the top jobs.
