Over the years, recruiting has become an arduous task, particularly in finding the ideal skill set. In fact, finding the right talent at the right time had become a rare concept on a global scale.
According to a case study by McKinsey & Company, companies can realise a 40 percent increase in the quality of hires and a 12 percent decrease in first-year attrition after they become more thoughtful and data-driven about hiring.
As the war for talent continues to intensify amidst changing employee expectations and an increasingly borderless world, companies are also looking for simplified technology-based platforms to enhance their candidate experience, says the report.

Recently, the company has raised $5.1M in seed funding from Sequoia India’s Surge alongside angel investors.
