The challenge

What we set out to solve

Inefficient job matching between teachers and schools

Hundreds of unsuitable applications per vacancy

Average time-to-hire of 8-12 weeks

Limited visibility into candidate qualifications and fit

Need for AI-powered matching algorithm

Our approach

How we tackled it

We developed a sophisticated two-sided marketplace with AI-powered matching. Schools create detailed job profiles including curriculum areas, student demographics, school values, and working environment. Teachers build comprehensive profiles showcasing qualifications, experience, specializations, and preferences. Our intelligent matching algorithm analyzes compatibility scores across 20+ factors, not just skills, but cultural fit and career aspirations. Teachers see only highly relevant opportunities, schools see pre-screened candidates. Built-in video interview tools, document verification, and reference checks streamline vetting. Schools can post, review candidates, and make offers all within the platform. Real-time notifications keep both parties updated throughout the hiring process.
