With over 400 job listing platforms in Africa, it’s imperative to acknowledge what Workonnect.Africa is building. With over 6000+ jobs on their platforms, several institutional partnerships across Africa, their tagline – The future of work. Powered by AI rings true.
Workonnect prides itself on building the foremost AI enabled hiring infrastructure for Africa. Whilst the problem that plagues the human capital industry in Africa seems to be bursting at the seams, Workonnect has established an AI matching protocol that keeps the complete collapse of the recruitment sector at bay.
Job boards & thousands of WhatsApp job communities are plagued with overwhelm for both job seekers & recruiters. Weak verification layers and fragmented job discovery systems are some of the major issues plaguing the recruitment ecosystem.
In our relentless pursuit to narrow the unemployment gap in Africa, we’ve built an AI-powered hiring intelligence system for emerging markets – Olawunmi Fashina – COO
Workonnect has just one goal in solving one painful problem:
“Help reduce bad hires and wasted interviews.”
Essentially, their ethos is to buy back time for businesses and even job seekers. Being the trust layer for Employers is no easy feat, it means utilising AI in curating:
- Interview readiness score
- Candidate verification badge
- Skill validation status
Whilst job boards will continue to remain relevant, Workonnects focuses on building the infrastructure layer that hiring activity runs on – the team famously describes the brand as LinkedIn on steroids, powered by AI without the social clutter.
“When we say hiring infrastructure, we mean the system beneath hiring — identity, trust, pipelines, and matching. Job boards only distribute listings. ATSs only manage applications. Workonnect connects the entire flow from talent creation to placement outcomes, which is what Africa is missing.” – Nwannukwu Stephanie – CEO
They continue to build the fastest-growing talent AI matching marketplace for emerging markets – sign up at workonnect.africa for more details.
