InterviewDesk (ID), an on-demand technical interviewing platform, recently announced that it has raised an undisclosed sum in seed funding headed by Sugumar Natarajan, Executive Director, Anil Foods, and angel investors including former Amazon executives Lakshminarayanan Venkatajalam and Karthick Chandran. Pichumani Durairaj, a former Amazonian, established InterviewDesk in 2018 intending to eliminate inefficiencies in the corporate employment process.
The HR tech startup, that completed fundraising a few weeks ago, wants to utilize the cash to enhance the technical and business teams to improve the technology that powers the platform, according to the company. “In today’s environment, businesses are seeking strategies to scale up their recruiting process to meet their never-ending resource needs.” “The goal of InterviewDesk is to assist firms to employ great personnel faster by combining human and technological involvement,” stated Pichumani Durairaj.
According to the corporate announcement, InterviewDesk grew 400% year on year in the fiscal year 2022. Clients include Ally, Byjus, Rupeek, Jupiter Money, Glossier, Coin Switch Kuber, and Jubilant FoodWorks. “We are optimistic that InterviewDesk will emerge as a fantastic solution provider, influencing many applicants to obtain their dream jobs and organizations to discover their missionaries,” stated Sugumar Natarajan, Executive Director, Anil Foods.
“Ever-increasing job seeker expectations, as well as organizations’ desperate need to fill posts quickly across functions, necessitate a fundamental shift in the recruiting process.” “I think the team at InterviewDesk, with their persistent pursuit of innovation, will bring about this shift through their platform, which will benefit both job seekers and employers,” said Lakshminarayanan Venkatajalam.
“The competition for tech talent among large-scale product companies and new start-ups have forced talent acquisition functions to constantly innovate to maximize talent attraction and the recruiting process to onboard the right personnel without lowering the hiring standard. The InterviewDesk team anticipated this requirement and began implementing bespoke solutions for their customers even before this Ops excellence in TA developed as a business model “Karthick Chandran said.
