Africa – Job board WorkinAfrica launched

13 October 2015

A new job board, WorkinAfrica, has been launched to connect people with jobs across Africa. In addition to the usual job board features, the platform also provides an embedded salary calculator, reports disrupt-africa.com.

It also features tests, quizzes, and contests; as well as an integrated gamification tool to make the job hunting process more fun and engaging. The start-up aims to support Africa’s growth by making sure qualified individuals fill relevant jobs, contributing to the continent’s overall development.

Ana Giurca, CEO of WorkinAfrica, commented: “We want people to make the most of their professional time. Time limit makes us creatively and transparently connect professionals with their dream jobs.”

“Our goal is to offer the most stable and effective job platform in Sub-Saharan Africa. We believe in the power of this recruitment solution to take African human resources to the next level,” she added.

Employers can create customised newsletters to promote their jobs to highly target audiences, enabling them to reach a specific professional profile. NGOs are able to use the service for free.

“We have high-aimed targets until the end of the year. We disclose, for now, just four of them: 500 hires, 200 employers posting jobs, career fairs and customised advertising campaigns for companies. And this is just the beginning,” Ms Giurca concluded.
