SEEK launches ‘JobStreet Express’ to help fill employment gap in Singapore

SEEK launches ‘JobStreet Express’ to help fill employment gap in Singapore

Singapore – SEEK, the parent company of Southeast Asian career platforms JobStreet and JobsDB, has launched an accessible, easy-to-use and free platform called JobStreet Express, which is now live in Singapore. 

With the launch of JobStreet Express, SEEK aims to help employers in Singapore fill the gap in semi-skilled workers, allowing many Singaporeans to obtain employment efficiently and safely. 

Notably, JobStreet Express was built to be mobile-first to cater to the majority of users in this segment who are regularly on the move. The platform also aims to close the application process in just a matter of hours or days, unlike traditional recruitment processes, which could take weeks or even months.

To fast track and simplify the hiring process, JobStreet Express will be making resumes optional on the platform before the end of the year. As long as talents provide the necessary information directly on their profiles, employers will no longer need to look at resumes for every role they post. This will allow talent to focus on applying for jobs rather than designing or updating their resumes. 

Over the next several months, JobStreet Express will be making enhancements, with some optional paid features to be made available in due course, catering to specific user needs. However, the platform’s basic functions, including the ability for any employer to post any semi-skilled role and the ability for easy application, will always remain free and accessible to everyone across Singapore.

SEEK has been developing JobStreet Express for over 18 months, readying for the Singapore market. The platform was first launched in Indonesia in October 2022 and is now present in four localities—Bali, Bandung, Surabaya and Yogyakarta, with more cities in the pipeline. With this in mind, SEEK plans to expand JobStreet Express across APAC in the near future.

Anshu Nahar, managing director for express & flex at SEEK, said, “The semi-skilled segment has traditionally been underserved. People in this segment often resort to unstructured and sometimes unsafe means to find jobs and talent. Both employers and talent feel that existing solutions just don’t work for them anymore.” 

“Through JobStreet Express, SEEK is committed to serving this segment with a dedicated platform, backed by millions of dollars of investment, our years of expertise, world-class technology and trusted brand,” he added.
