History of employing tech candidates

  1. Europe's west

    From the 5th to the 15th century, people in Western Europe were often drafted into imperial armies that traveled across nations. This marked an important period in recruitment history, as most individuals were moved for military purposes.

  2. South America and the Caribbean

    In the 16th and 17th centuries, colonists brought laborers from Asia and Africa to work on plantations in the Caribbean and South America. This wave of labor migration led to significant exploitation in the New World.

  3. Magnificent city revolution

    During the 18th and 19th centuries, large labor forces contributed to the construction of grand cities. Traders and merchants migrated to these urban centers, seeking better job opportunities, driving urban growth.

    Industrialization in the 20th century led to more jobs in factories and offices. Both "white-collar" and "blue-collar" occupations grew in number, and many freedom fighters took part in the World Wars.

  5. Growth of employment organizations

    By the end of the 20th century, job seekers relied on recruitment agencies and daily newspapers for job postings. The fax machine sped up the hiring process in 1989, and online job portals like Monster and Hot Jobs emerged in 1994.

  6. Expansion of internet employment agencies

    In the modern era, platforms like LinkedIn became a key professional networking site in 2003. Recruitment companies began using technology-based hiring tools, such as candidate databases, video interviews, and fraud detection software.
