The Challenge

Insufficient and Irrelevant Applications on Traditional Platforms

As a sizeable startup with international branches in Asia, FunNow also faced difficulties in recruitment. Despite the low volume of applicants received on a few traditional job platforms, the quality-related issues included:

  • Commonly without the required knowledge or relevant experience
  • Random backgrounds applying for specific jobs
  • Asking for unreasonable salary

Luckily, their staff in Taiwan suggested the branch in Hong Kong to use Wantedly...

Problems are then easily solved, voila!
