Talent Tech Labs, Incubator for Emerging and Later-Stage Talent Acquisition Tech, Welcomes Mobile-First Social Recruitment Platform to Advisory Program

    NEW YORK, NY, March 07, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Talent Tech Labs, incubator, accelerator, and premium service supplier focused on promoting technological developments in emerging and later-stage Talent Acquisition technology startups, announced today their acceptance of Amsterdam-based smart recruitment technology firm StartMonday into its Technology Provider Advisory (TPA) Program as part of late-stage advisory for advancing select, mature startups ready for targeted penetration into the North American marketplace.

"We have known Ray Gibson and StartMonday for years, and we are delighted to accept them into our program. In particular, CareerChain by StartMonday is extremely interesting," said Jonathan Kestenbaum, Managing Director at Talent Tech Labs.

StartMonday's technology and general platform build brings a familiar social media-based look and functionality to the candidate sourcing process for modern-day employers. Candidates are allowed 15 seconds to record a video introduction of why they think they'd make the best candidate for an open position. Candidate videos appear in a thread format for employers to scroll through, swipe right to favorite, and swipe left to deny. From the platform, employers are allowed to call favorited candidates for follow-up discussions.

"This puts job applicants firmly in the social media and mobile native arena, empowering job seekers to present themselves in their own way. In addition to reducing cost and time-to-hire, StartMonday brings massive employer branding opportunities to its clients," said Ray Gibson, StartMonday's CEO & Co-Founder.

"In our talks with TTL they have already mapped out a plan which includes an initial launch and benchmark assessment at Talent Tech's April Expert Demo Day, to develop expert feedback and insights to guide sales efforts and to provide an added layer of due diligence for investors. Subsequent creation of a comprehensive Market Intelligence Report and participation at buyer-focused Talent Tech Next, in New York on May 3rd and in San Francisco on Sep 19th is bookended by investor-focused Talent Tech Now, in New York in April and October. They also have plans for multiple demo opportunities and the development of related sales, marketing and investor materials. It's a very comprehensive program and we are excited to get started. We believe this program will ideally position us to really show what StartMonday and CareerChain can do to accelerate success within the HR industry arm of Corporate America," Gibson said.
