At a time when the “talent market” is high both in volume and quality, recruitment and hiring technology is in desperate need of upgrading within many companies. Enter Beamery and its comprehensive “Talent Operating System” that helps manage sourcing, hiring and retaining of a highly skilled workforce, as well as visualizing the bigger human capital picture through its “talent graph,” all in an end-to-end, all-in-one service. As organizations manage the recent boom in remote working, Beamery hopes to enable those enterprises to streamline the recruitment, application, hiring and retention processes of HR. The company reports a significant uptick in business since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, helping its clients fill at least a million roles during the preceding year.

Beamery is led by co-founder and CEO Abakar Saidov, formerly a financial analyst for Goldman Sachs, who touts the company’s ability to consolidate workflows as a key advantage sought by its clientele. Recently, Beamery raised $138 million in its latest round of fundraising at an estimated valuation of $800 million, with investments coming from Canadian pension fund operator Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board as well as the investment arms of Microsoft, Accenture, and Workday.
