Kochi: Kerala Startup Mission (KSUM) has selected Zappyhire, a Kochi-based recruitment automation startup, to attend the 4YFN event in Barcelona, Spain. This four-day affair, part of the MWC Barcelona 2023 and hosted by the GCMA, is one of the largest startup showcases in the world. The event aims to extend its support to startups, investors and companies by providing them a platform to establish contact and birth collaborations and new business ventures.

Founded in late 2018 with a small team of three members, Zappyhire set out to transform talent management through augmented intelligence, end-to-end automation, and exceptional candidate experience. In just four years, the company has achieved great success in building a robust and scalable recruitment automation platform that has received numerous accolades including the recent Digital India Platinum Award 2022. Last year, the platform screened over 1.6 million candidates and conducted over 101K interviews. Zappyhire also forms the cornerstone of an ambitious state government project that aims to create 20 lakh jobs in 5 years. 

Apart from being loaded with a multitude of advanced and intelligent features such as a next-gen Applicant Tracking System (ATS), multilingual recruiting chatbot, and robotic video interviews with AI assessments, the platform empowers companies to win on talent through predictive and data-driven recruitment. Zappyhire’s advanced analytics and reporting module provides deep insights into recruitment data and delivers smart recommendations to recruiters throughout the hiring process, earning it the title “Siri for recruiters”.

The startup’s revolutionary approach to recruitment tech has earned it a place as one of the top 5 HR tech startups and one of the 101 Most Innovative AI Companies in India. With a rapidly expanding client base and global presence, Zappyhire serves 4,000+ recruiters across Southeast Asia, MENA, France, and the US.
