Jobizo, a digital hiring platform focused on transforming recruitment in the healthcare sector, has successfully raised $1.4 million in a pre-Series A funding round led by Alkemi Growth Capital. This latest investment follows a previous $500,000 seed round in 2022, backed by AROA Venture Partners.
The platform has made a significant impact on India’s healthcare industry, contributing to over 10 million additional patient care hours by streamlining hiring processes. By providing healthcare businesses with a verified talent pool, Jobizo helps reduce recruitment costs and timelines while addressing the sector’s workforce challenges.
With the fresh funding, the startup plans to enhance its product offerings, expand into six to eight additional Indian cities, and establish a foothold in international markets. As part of its growth strategy, Jobizo will also recruit leadership talent across key departments, including technology, operations, and customer service.
The company has set ambitious targets for the next 18 months, aiming to generate over 100,000 jobs in India and 3,000 jobs globally. Over the long term, it envisions filling more than 40 million job hours, contributing to the overall efficiency of the healthcare workforce.
“This investment empowers us to scale our platform, extend our reach, and build the necessary infrastructure to bridge the skills gap in the global healthcare industry. Our goal is to offer flexible and rewarding job opportunities to qualified professionals worldwide,” stated co-founders Naveen and Avishek.
As Jobizo continues to expand, it remains committed to reshaping healthcare recruitment by leveraging technology and a strong investor network, ensuring a seamless hiring experience for both employers and professionals.
