Everjobs to expand job opportunities to smaller Sri Lanka towns
Feb 18, 2016 (LBO) – Everjobs, a Rocket Internet company subsidiary, wants to expand beyond Sri Lanka’s main cities this year and encourage more local firms and job seekers to opt for cost effective options.
“The cost of online recruitment is only about 10 percent of the cost of an offline option,” the company said, one year after commencing operations in Colombo.
The site has a database of over 35,000 registered job seekers, and over 2,500 employers, according to the company.
"During the 2015/2016 period, the website attracted more than half a million unique visitors and thereby established a strong presence in the online jobs market in Sri Lanka," said Gijs Verheijke, Everjobs Sri Lanka Managing Director and Country Manager.
"As the site traffic figures attest, everjobs has become an integral part of the career management for thousands of job seekers in Sri Lanka," he said.
"The improved job market is fueling renewed optimism in the information technology, banking, financial services, apparel, education, telecommunication and healthcare sectors.”
