Yahoo acquires recruiting tech startup

February 14, 2014

Yahoo acquired tech startup Distill, the young company announced in a blog post. The distill team, with backgrounds at companies like Google, Yahoo!, Amazon, StumbleUpon and Tapjoy, will help build out Yahoo’s mobile advertising solutions.

The company has stopped development of Distill Schedule and Distill Interview. Interviews can be scheduled through the end of February, and the Distill platform will remain available through March 30.

“We are excited to share the news that the Distill team is off to start a new adventure! We are joining Yahoo. Prior to creating Distill, we were part of the original team behind the creation of Tapjoy, a mobile performance-based advertising platform that drove deep engagement and monetization opportunities for mobile app publishers,” the blog post stated.

SFGate reported Yahoo acquired the firm to nab its seven mobile tech employees.
