Conversational AI recruiting platform for frontline workers EMI has closed an $11 million Series A round.
Emi says it will use the capital to expand its team across multiple functions, including sales, marketing and product.
The platform helps global enterprises streamline the recruitment process by automating end-to-end communication – proving popular within industries struggling with The Great Resignation.
Through a conversation interface, it uses AI to shorten the hiring process, increase candidate satisfaction and improve recruiter productivity.
Mateo Cavasotto, Co-Founder and CEO of Emi, said: “Our mission is to increase frontline workers’ access to professional opportunities. To accomplish this, we are creating the infrastructure for frontline hiring, providing companies with tools designed specifically for the challenges of hiring these workers, who account for 2.4B people across the globe, representing +70% of the global workforce.”
“We founded this company while working closely with frontline candidates, so we know that technology needs to meet them where they are, not the other way around. At the same time, we work with large enterprises and also know that our platform needs to fit into their growing tech stacks.”
Emi says their platform helped clients fill more than 20,000 job vacancies over the past year. The company’s current customers include brand names like Walmart, Danone, and Burger King.
