What a year at SmartRecruiters! Since the end of 2012 the team has grown from 30 to 55 people, the customer base from 30,000 to 60,000 companies, and we released a bunch of new products (agency management, candidate assessment, mobile recruiting, to name a few). Here’s what people are saying about this SaaS startup in 2013:
@SmartRecruiters I was very #impressed how #organized and neat it was. Not to mention, the free aspect. Glad to know it’s out there!
