London-based hackajob, a company that claims to bring ‘great’ people together with ‘great’ companies to drive the world forward, announced that it has secured nearly €22.66M in a Series B round of funding.

The investment came from US-based growth equity firm Volition Capital.

Founded in 2014 by Mark Chaffey and Razvan Creanga, hackajob has built a direct sourcing platform for technical talent through its two-sided marketplace where companies receive an 85 percent response rate and reduce the volume of candidates to make a hire by 7X.

“We combine this with powerful Diversity & Inclusion, Assessment, and Employer Brand products that touch every part of the hiring process. 

Underpinning our hiring platform is over 50 million first-party data points on technical professionals, that power our proprietary machine-learning models,” adds co-founder Mark Chaffey.

Tech professionals can use the platform to learn new skills, take part in community events, engage directly with employers, and ultimately find their next role by leveraging the “best-in-class” experience with a candidate-centric platform.

Companies can directly source talent through a two-sided marketplace using the full-stack hiring platform from Hackajob.

With this round of investment, hackajob aims to redesign how tech recruiting will function in the coming 10 years for both job seekers and employers.

This funding will also enable hackajob to quicken its market expansion goals after an expansion into the US last summer. The company reports that it has scaled its talent pool with 25 percent of active candidates now based in the US.
