A Swiss start-up among the 100 most disruptive companies in the world
Among the 100 most disruptive companies in the world is one from Switzerland: the Staff Finder recruitment platform. Twice a year, the Disrupt 100 organization selects companies that show the highest potential to create new global markets and influence or change existing markets. Staff Finder impressed in the area of recruiting with the high flexibility and speed of its on-demand marketplace, according to the report.
Staff Finder was the only Swiss company to make the list of the top 100 companies playing a central role in the upheaval of global markets. Among other things, the Disrupt 100 jury was impressed by Staff Finder's success rate in filling 98 percent of requests for short-term work assignments in less than four hours with qualified personnel from its pool. Staffing is one of the most important industries in the world, with a market value of approximately $400 billion. Staff Finder's on-demand marketplace answers the current need for flexibility and for the cost-effective recruitment of short-term and short-term staffing assignments.
Smart platform promotes disruption
Over two billion smartphones are in use globally today. They are accelerators of comprehensive change - 55 percent of all companies honored by Disrupt 100 rely on mobile solutions. Staff Finder AG is no exception. Its fully automated recruitment platform, which finds staff for the hotel & catering, retail & logistics, promotion & event, and commercial and administrative sectors, went online in 2011. In the meantime, more than 80,000 employees and over 5,000 employers have registered with the leading Swiss staff leasing company. The young company would also like to make its experience in peak management available internationally. With the planned expansion, Staff Finder AG is realizing its potential to influence the global market in recruiting and thus to change it in a needs-oriented and future-oriented way.
