Having raised $1.6 million and wooed LinkedIn’s Cliff Rosenberg, founders of recruitment startup MyInterview explain why they could be picky about their investors
Summary
Sydney and Tel Aviv-based recruitment startup MyInterview has raised $1.6 million to develop its AI-enabled video interview platform, and to manage increased demand as it expands even further overseas. MyInterview was launched in 2015 when co-founders Benjamin Gillman and Guy Abelsohn secured an initial $300,000 in seed funding from Entrée Capital. Gillman tells StartupSmart it’s designed to be user-friendly, and “gives employers an insight into those soft skills, and those personality traits”. Abelsohn adds that the startup has also now integrated with US human resources software provider Workable, and is working with “a number of job boards overseas”, including one client in India. Entrée Capital had been on board from the beginning, and the VC firm is known in the UK and Israel for “the assistance and support they give founders”, Gillman says.
