The IAOP Global Impact Sourcing Award (GISA), created in partnership with The Rockefeller Foundation, recognizes HireMee for enabling equal access to opportunities for small town youth in India by connecting them with employers.
HireMee’s commitment to creating positive social and environmental impact within their communities was an important criterion for IAOP to pick HireMee.
“It is a privilege to be acknowledged with the Global Impact Sourcing Award by IAOP as HireMee enables equal access to job opportunities for talented youth from small towns by identifying talents and connecting them with companies, big and small, that value diversity and inclusivity,” said Venkatraman Umakanth, SVP and Head, HireMee.

Today more than 4000 companies get access to a wider pool of pre-assessed talent from across India readily and at no cost.
