The Idaho software company spent years making the applicant-tracking system more flexible. Now it is betting that recruiters need a database that searches, refreshes and suggests - without taking the relationship out of their hands.
Jibe was a New York City-based SaaS recruiting technology company founded in 2010 by Joe Essenfeld. It helped large enterprises modernize hiring with Google-optimized career sites, mobile-friendly job applications, recruiting CRM, and machine-learning-driven candidate matching. Used by Fortune 1000 employers such as Johnson & Johnson, Siemens and Comcast, Jibe raised roughly $36.9M across several rounds before being acquired by applicant-tracking leader iCIMS in June 2019, where its technology became the foundation of iCIMS' recruitment marketing product, Attract.
