HiringBoss Secures $5 Million in Financing

February 28, 2013 – HiringBoss, the Asia-based human resources and eRecruiting software firm, has announced the completion of its series A financing with JAFCO, totaling $5 million. HiringBoss will use the investment to accelerate R&D, product development and increase regional sales and local support mechanisms. The firm is also set to launch two new products this year, HrBoss and StaffingBoss, which will expand the HiringBoss platform beyond applicant tracking into the field of talent management and staffing. HiringBoss CEO, Bernie Schiemer, said: “JAFCO’s investment in us marks a new chapter in the HiringBoss story. First and foremost this legitimizes our business proposition and is recognition of the need for an Asia-based executor on talent management solutions. For too long, businesses in Asia have had to settle for overly complex U.S. and Eurocentric solutions that don’t take into account the local and region-specific needs of this highly diverse and dynamic market.”
