Job matching platform, jobandtalent has secured USD25 million in funding as an extension of its Series A investment, which was previously closed in July 2014.
The funding round is the biggest investment inflow to date for a company within the job matching category.
An investor group by Pelayo Cortina Koplowitz increased its participation and has co-invested with the previous investors, including Qualitas Equity Partners, Kibo Ventures, Fundacion Jose Manuel Entrecanales, and business angel Nicolas Luca de Tena.
"We are extremely excited about this round of funding," says Juan Urdiales, Co-founder of jobandtalent. "We created the job matching category and we are leading it. Job boards were born in the nineties, Monster was one of the creators of the category and they took the lead, then the aggregators came with Indeed, and finally professional networks arrived with LinkedIn owning the category. Job matching is the new disrupting category in this sector and jobandtalent is poised to dominate the market."
