The startup Hireflix has launched a video interview system to make hiring new employees, for any job, easier and easier. It is about "saving time when hiring", since, through this platform, what is accelerated is the selection process thanks to the face-to-face user experience when being interviewed.
The startup idea comes from Nacho González-Barros, Founder of Infojobs. González-Barros has a professional career of 20 years in terms of hiring staff.
In addition to González-Barros, the development of the company has come from the hand of John Benavides, Executive Director; Lasse Johnsen, responsible for service and products of Hireflix; and Pau Febrer, Director of corporate communication.
The startup, created in Barcelona in 2018, allows staff recruiters - who have previously created an interview by recording themselves asking questions - to invite a large number of candidates. These candidates can answer, via mobile or computer, at the time they think is most appropriate.
Hireflix customers include Jobandtalent, Travelperk, Marfeel and Netquest. All of them are platforms focused on the field of labor hiring. Likewise, the startup also has an international presence. The founder of the startup has specified: "We already have contracts with companies such as Johnson Electric for the United States and Mexico."
In line with this, the company's objectives include "finding the right market fit and the development of the most customer-friendly platform in the market," the founders explained. Along with this they have also highlighted the growth they want to carry out, so that another of the goals they pursue is to "launch us into the international market from January 2020", they have added.
BUSINESS AND INVESTMENT MODEL
Hireflix is based on a SaaS (Software as a Service) business model, which allows platform users to connect to applications created in the cloud via the Internet. The Hireflix system corresponds to monthly or annual payments.
The investment made by the founders for the development of the startup has been 600,000 euros. Of this amount, the hiring of personnel in the field of product development, sales and success with the customer has accounted for 70% of the economic amount.
In addition, Hireflix has had the collaboration of investments among which are Albert Armengol, Diego Mariño Albert Ribera, David Tomás, Daniel Giménez, Marek Fodor and Oscar Maciá, in the field of Business Angels
As regards the turnover of the company, the goal that has been set since the startup is to reach 44,000 euros in 2019.
