QuikrJobs acquires ‘Hiree’

Our customers will now gain the benefits of Hiree's technology and massive scale of Quikr in parallel," said Founders of Hiree, Manjunath and Abhijit.

QuikrJobs recently reached a milestone of over 10 lakh job seeker profiles created through its missed call service alone.

This in addition to profiles created via desktop and mobile. The platform offers an easy to understand role-based search for both recruiters and job-seekers across full-time, part-time, work-from-home and even work abroad options.
