Polywork Aims for LinkedIn


Listen Later

Polywork, a new type of business social network has raised $13 million in new funding from Andreesen Hororwitz and other investors. Think of it as an alternative to LinkedIn.

From the a16z blog…

Polywork focuses on letting people tell their own stories and all they’re capable of, so we can meet new people, supercharge our teams, and unlock creativity. From capturing details like who you collaborated with on various projects to career highlights, to a system of community-created badges reflecting both personal and professional traits, Polywork is building a new professional network, from the ground up, that reflects how we work in 2021. As a bonus, Polywork profiles can also be hosted on any custom domain instead of Polywork as a simple way to represent your online identity.

Tech interviewers for hire are now just a few clicks away from companies that need to scale up hiring, reclaim time wasted by unqualified candidates, and hire for new roles and technologies within the business.

“eTeki’s interviews marketplace is a natural evolution for how the world is hybrid eworking during and beyond the pandemic. We are seeing continued usage growth and the demand for an outsourced interviewing as-a-service marketplace – what’s needed to match recruitment growth of critical tech talent.  eTeki is starting a venture backed capital raise to fuel our expansion.” says eTeki CEO Hans Bukow.

Businesses in need of scalable, on-demand interviewing need to look no further than eTeki’s newest talent marketplace. Formerly only available in a managed service model, eTeki’s pay-per-interview marketplace now brings a bench of expert freelancers available to lead IT interviews for hiring teams across the globe. Hiring professionals scope the interview, add a candidate, select one of eTeki’s 6,000+ expert interviewers and confirm an interview time with a credit card.
