We spoke with Manikanth Challa, Founder & CEO of Workruit, an AI/ML assisted career and recruitment platform catering to the B2B, B2C and B2G segments.
Offering a suite of solutions like an i) AI-assisted Resume, CV, and Cover Letter Builder with a ii) Job Search and Matching Play, Workruit has built an interactive dating app-like interface where employers/recruiters and job seekers can match with each other.
Manikanth speaks about his personal journey from the US to India, throwing light on how he struggled to find developers and engineers in 2016 via traditional solutions out there. This pushed him to combine his prior product learnings from online dating and fintech industries to create an end-to-end career development platform like Workruit.
Workruit has generated more than 2M+ resumes and has 25M+ industry specific templates. They have raised over $500,000 in pre-Series A round led by the family office of Kantamaneni from the US and is now aiming to raise more in 2024 to expand their business in the Middle East.
Hope you enjoy this TRANSFIN. Podcast with Nikhil Arora and Sharath Toopran, where we converse with entrepreneurs and business operators running successful startups, profitable SMEs and family promoted firms on one end, and top investment professionals representing VC/PE/credit funds on the other.
The objective is to bring out an "actionable" perspective converging the world of business and investing.
