Caroo, a Manchester-based tech start-up, hopes to revolutionise the way people apply for jobs.

 

Gareth Peterson, Caroo managing director, wishes to say goodbye to the whole process that involves contacting several recruitment agencies and scrolling through hundreds of pages of search results just to browse what opportunities there are to progress your career.

 

He said: "We can bank, shop, travel and communicate in just a few taps on our mobile devices yet when it comes to finding relevant career opportunities we are subjected to painful experiences and we hand control over to other people.

 

"Our users have designed an experience perfect for the passive candidate where they can add their data in six taps, powering an algorithm that will recommend roles and brands based on core skills and interests. Removing middlemen and irrelevant email alerts. The more we learn about our users the better the matches become.”

 

He added: “The recruitment sector hasn’t had its AirBnB moment yet. Our users are leading the product strategy and we are excited for the future of recruitment technology, employer branding and candidate experience.”
