Hiredly’s Journey to Meet Evolving Demands of Workplaces

Post-pandemic, Malaysia has experienced a gradual decline in unemployment, however the paradigm shift in work dynamics during the pandemic continues, and now sees many of the younger generations placing different priorities on what they seek in a job.

Hiredly, a leading hybrid recruitment platform in the realm of talent acquisition, specifically targets Gen Y and Z, recognizing their evolving working preferences. It comprises both a job portal and a headhunting recruitment solution, focusing on junior to mid-management talents.

Today on Open for Business, we speak with Derek Toh, the Founder and CEO of Hiredly, on why he started down this path, the business model and promise of this venture, how AI has changed the game, and the future of Hiredly. We will also explore employment trends in Malaysia and the evolving demands of workplaces.
