Monster.com rebrands to foundit

Job portal Monster.com said it has decided to become a full-fledged talent management platform and will now be known as “foundit.in” in Asia Pacific and the Middle East. It also plans to use everything from artificial intelligence to analytics to cater better to clients as it expects hiring to become “a lot sharper, focused and skill-based” in the future.

The rebranding, which was planned after Quess took over Monster in 2018, was delayed due to the pandemic. It comes at a time when technology is increasingly disrupting talent acquisition. Foundit will use deep-tech based recommendations to provide hyper-personalised job searches to users based on their educational background, employment experience and skills.
