Dutch-based Recrubo raises €600K for its platform to make job applications easy using WhatsApp

Tilburg, the Netherlands-based Recrubo, a platform for recruitment professionals, announced on Monday that it has secured €600K in a Seed round of funding to commercially upscale its AI-based recruitment platform. The company specialises in optimising the hiring process for blue-collar and service-oriented businesses using chat technology. Niels Tukker, founder and CEO of Recrubo, says, “An extensive CV is not important for many jobs. When applicants can apply for positions quickly and easily using WhatsApp, that matches the requirements of the younger generation. It is a giant leap forward in terms of the user experience, for jobseekers and employers alike.” The funding came from Glass Frog Ventures, Pop Up Qapital, and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM).
