要做服务和酒店行业的“领英” ,Industry 获得230万美元种子轮融资提到职业社交网站,大多数人会首先想到领英。不过,虽然领英拥有超过4亿名会员,但并不意味着它能满足所有类型的工作。
比如说服务和酒店行业,需要的更多是视觉展现,像是厨师准备食物、调酒师准备饮品,单凭一张简历无法准确展示工作所需的必要技能,美国服务和酒店行业的招聘解决方案提供平台 Industry 找准这一切入点,成为集网络、市场和招聘行业顶尖人才解决方案于一体的专业平台。
近日,Industry 获得230万美元种子轮融资,Sand Hill Road(沙山路)上的隐形风投基金领投。
公司计划利用该笔资金招募人才,将团队规模从6人扩大到15人;公司还将扩大目前在西海岸的9大市场份额,包括圣地亚哥、洛杉矶、旧金山、波特兰、西雅图、丹佛、拉斯维加斯、斯科茨代尔和凤凰城。迄今为止,公司共筹集资金250万美元。
Industry 成立于2014年,总部位于美国旧金山,作为服务和酒店行业的招聘解决方案专业提供商,从初次求职者、事业建设者到经验丰富的“老兵”,其平台能够满足行业内不同层次人群的需求,
初次求职者可以这里介绍自己、展示优点以及发现自己的个性是否与公司文化相匹配;对于想要获得提升的事业建设者而言,这里可以展示他们的技能;而对于那些经验丰富的“老兵”来说,他们可以利用平台来讲述自己的故事,就像 Scatori 披萨店和意大利餐厅的资深厨师 Kevin Levine,就在网站上创建了一个视频,讲述他的整个职业生涯。
尽管 Industry 并未透露有多少求职者或企业使用其平台,但公司战略的一部分是锁定所进驻市场的餐厅,让更多的企业参与进来。例如,在华盛顿,该公司与华盛顿酒店协会合作,该协会的注册餐厅有6000家,目前大部分均使用该平台找到新员工。
平台上七成的餐馆都是家族拥有和经营的,公司主要针对的是有5到15家分店的餐厅,它们通常是潮流引领者,以最快的速度开设分店。所以帮助他们找到人才,也会赢得这些家族企业的信赖。
目前公司的客户包括美高梅国际酒店集团、迪斯尼、Hell’s Kitchen 、Cohn Restaurant Group 、Fox Restaurant Concepts 和 Stone Brewing Co. 等。
与此同时,Industry 也向求职者展示了自己的价值,因为在平台的帮助下,找工作的时间大大缩短了。一般来说,服务和酒店业找到工作需要28天,而 Industry 将时间缩减到一个星期,甚至更少。
在某些情况下,像是服务生或调酒师这样的工作,不出24小时,餐馆就能找到50到100名申请者。而厨房工作,像是厨师,花费的时间要长一些,因为申请者相对较少,不过也不会超过一个星期。
Industry 目前采用 pay-per-applicant(依申请人付费)付费模式,每个职位都有自己的底价起点,平均价格是3美元。
但根据不用的需求价格会各有不同。比如说,招聘的职位需要的工作经验越丰富、越具体,企业支付的费用越多。
所以说,如果你想雇用一个执行主厨,要求持有烹饪学校学位、至少有10年工作经验,价格就会很高,因为满足条件的申请人会很少,可能餐厅要为每名申请人支付25美元。但是至少能找到合适的人选,所以对餐厅来说还是非常划算的。
Industry 允许客户设置费用上限。举例来说,如果餐馆想招酒保,找到一个应聘者的费用是3美元,然后餐馆表示最多会支付75美元,那么他能获得25名申请者;而大型酒店或企业,则不会有金额上限。
目前平台对求职者免费。但公司计划在未来也会收费,像是使用会员制度。公司还会提供广告机会。
目前,圣地亚哥是其最大、增长最快的市场,有着20%的员工和业务量,其次是洛杉矶、拉斯维加斯和西雅图。
从美国市场来看,服务和酒店行业有着1700万从业者,而且这个数字还会迅速增长。加之餐厅、酒吧、夜总会、酒店的员工流动率为72%,所以放眼全球,Industry 很有可能成为这一利用的领英。
