India’s job market, always highly competitive, became a battleground after the pandemic. How could one ensure they stood out in a scenario like this? By relying on a partner who knows what it takes to succeed.
Noida-based firm Jobsgaar, launched in 2020, claims to be this partner.
Jobsgaar is a career-tech venture disrupting decade-old marketplaces or search-and-browse models for recruiters and job seekers. With its omnichannel approach and proprietary technology, Jobsgaar helps employers find well-matched and verified talent in Tier II and III towns in less than two minutes.
The brand enables access to various digital inclusions for recruiters and job seekers through its innovative tech solutions and a chatbot on WhatsApp.
“Jobsgaar is also the first Indian startup to have an Indo-Israeli founding team,” explain co-founders Atul Pratap Singh and Moshe Jacob in a chat with YourStory.
Last week, Jobsgaar raised an undisclosed pre-Series A funding round led by SucSEED Indovation Fund. Blume Founder Fund, BlackSoil, Karekeba Ventures, and others also participated in the round. Read more.
