(PRWEB) February 28, 2013
Tokyo / Singapore: http://www.hiringboss.com HiringBoss (http://www.hiringboss.com) the Asia-based human resources and eRecruiting software firm, today announced the completion of its Series A financing with JAFCO, totaling $5 million US Dollars. This major new investment further underlines HiringBoss’s status as Asia’s fastest-growing talent management providers and one of the region’s most exciting new start-ups.
HiringBoss CEO Bernie Schiemer today commented, “JAFCO’s investment in us marks a new chapter in the HiringBoss story. First and foremost this legitimizes our business proposition and is recognition of the need for an Asia-based executor on talent management solutions. For too long, businesses in Asia have had to settle for overly complex US and Eurocentric solutions that don’t take into account the local and region-specific needs of this highly diverse and dynamic market.”
JAFCO’s Executive Managing Director, Hiroshi Yamada, added, “JAFCO is excited to be part of the HiringBoss journey and back this ambitious company in their successes in Asia. We see great products, fresh approach and a good team already in place. We expect great things in the offing.”
HiringBoss will use the investment to accelerate RD, product development and significantly increase their regional sales and local support mechanisms. They are also poised to launch 2 major new products by June of 2013, HrBoss and StaffingBoss, which promise to further establish their dominance in the Asian market. These new solutions will expand the HiringBoss offering beyond applicant tracking into the field of talent management and staffing.
Schiemer continued, “JAFCO’s reputation precedes them and their formidable track record of around 920 IPOs worldwide shows that they are adept at picking winners. HiringBoss understands the challenges and expectations that such investments bring. We’re all excited about the journey ahead.”
