Bossjob, an online job search platform in the Philippines, has secured US$5 million in funding from an undisclosed venture fund.

The startup will use the investment to enhance its platform, refine the user experience, and expand the team.

The deal comes as the company expands into Singapore, Indonesia, and Hong Kong.

Bossjob was founded in 2018 by Anthony Garcia and Kiat How Quak. The co-founders met at a networking event in the Philippines. As they discussed their challenges as aspirating entrepreneurs, they discovered a common challenge: finding suitable candidates in the country. They wanted to develop a tech solution to address this challenge. This led them to start Bossjob.

Bossjob is a chat-first career platform. It aims to provide speedy communications between talents and bosses to eliminate lengthy application processes through direct chat.

With a focus on personalised algorithms and data-driven insights, Bossjob aims to streamline the job search process, ensuring professionals connect with the right opportunities and employers discover top talent efficiently.

“The expansion into new markets, including Singapore, Indonesia, and Hong Kong, demonstrates our commitment to addressing the global demand for a smarter and more effective hiring process. With a goal of reaching 30 million users by 2026, we are poised to significantly impact the job market,” said Garcia.
