UK-competitor secures multi-million cash injection

February 25, 2007

For those of you who read the internet press, you cannot have missed the fact that Zubka, a UK website offering a referral recruitment platform similar to Xpertize, has secured a multi-million cash injection from Benchmark Capital Europe, the top-tier venture capital firm behind eBay, Betfair and Bebo.

The most interesting aspect of this cash injection for us is that people are now aware that e-recruitment 2.0 will significantly modify the old-fashioned recruitment market. Commenting the news, Klaus Hommels, venture partner at Benchmark Capital Europe, said the following: “We instantly recognized that Zubka could transform the traditional job-hunting market in the same way eBay changed the trading marketplace”.
