“In just a few short years, Jobr has built a simple and consumer-friendly, mobile-first approach to connecting jobs and people. Bringing the Jobr app and team to Monster will enhance our leading global talent platform for job search, people search and related solutions across mobile channels,” saidMark Stoever, President and Chief Operating Officer, Monster.  “Our company promise is to bring humanity and opportunity to the job market; adding the impressive Jobr team to the Monster family is another incremental step in delivering on this promise and bringing new opportunities to connect jobs and people to market.”

The Jobr app uses a ‘Tinder-like’ model, allowing job seekers to quickly connect with or dismiss job opportunities by swiping right or left on job postings and then apply to those jobs.  Jobr also provides tools for recruiters to manage and interact with applicants.

Monster, whose jobs are already featured on the Jobr app, will immediately begin to integrate the Jobr app with the Monster global talent platform, initially focusing on building out key capabilities including single sign on for users and developing Monster membership workflows. The company will then work to extend the Jobr app to other markets in which it operates through early 2017.

Monster also intends to unleash the Jobr team and core assets in further expanding its mobile capabilities, accelerating the development of the mobile components of the company’s recruiting platform.

“This is an exciting day for the Jobr team; becoming part of a premier recruiting brand like Monster is a vital step in driving the scale of the Jobr platform,” said TJ Nahigian, Chief Executive Officer of Jobr. “We have seen tremendous growth of Jobr –with thousands of recruiters and millions of job seekers already active on the service. We are thrilled to combine efforts and help drive mobile development for Monster.”
