Jobspotting Launches Personalised Job Matching in Singapore
Berlin, 5th November, 2015 – 8am SGT | German startup Jobspotting (https://sg.jobspotting.com/en/jobs/singapore) is seeking to revolutionise the Singapore recruitment market. Having already brought effortless job search to 7 countries – Mexico, Germany, the UK, Austria, Spain, Hong Kong, and South Africa – the company now sets its sights on Singapore.
Location Singapore: The Perfect Place for a Job Search Revolution
As reported by Vivienne Chow for the South China Morning Post in August, Jobspotting have long been eager to expand to Asia. In April, the company won a vote of confidence from Horizons Ventures – Sir Li Ka-shing’s Hong Kong-based venture capital fund – in the form of seed investment.
As Singapore is recognised as one of the most business-friendly economies in the world, the recruitment climate there is perfectly primed for this new approach to job search. It provides a rich source of electronics, technology, business, and finance jobs, but it can be hard for job seekers to find the information they need to make good career decisions. In addition, the workforce is highly-skilled, technically-savvy and eager to adapt to new advances, but existing job search platforms don’t allow ambitious job seekers to research and learn about their industry in an intuitive, transparent way.
