The elegant modeling of recruiter and jobseeker as inter-dependent relationship rather than individual interests, can help millions, I am excited to contribute to a shape-shifting vision for job markets, where it is needed most, India.”, he said.

The platform is available as a PaaS/SaaS offering and is being used by over 100 organizations.

The two-year-old platform operates from the DLabs Incubation Center at the Indian School of Business founded by a team of people graduated from IIT and NIT who have earlier worked in Microsoft, Google, ISB and Infosys.

“Talent acquisition in current job markets is like an onion — involving layers of background, capability, skills, education, communication and the personality of the candidate. These layers of limitations are also applicable to recruiters. Current solutions in the market have ignored recruiter issues and put the focus of technology only on candidates,” Founder Deepak Agrawal said. “Our solutions let organisations manage their entire hiring operations on a single platform,” he said.
