Startups in Travel, Hospitality, Entertainment, Restaurant Tech, Mobility (to name a few) are drastically reducing staff, while others in Healthcare, Mental Health, Education, E-commerce, Cloud, Supply Chain Management, Insurance (to name a few) can't even cope with the demand right now and must hire. For the first ones, the minimum is to make sure that people let go won't stay unemployed and can find their next dream job right away. When you're in this position as an Entrepreneur, you want to help and you want reach out to all other Entrepreneurs you know and recommend these talents. But it's hard to know who is recruiting and who is not in this crazy environment. Switch is just taking this to the next level, connecting all startups that are letting people go to all startups that are hiring, creating a global and free talent marketplace.

Already hundreds of talent have given permission to receive job opportunities on Switch -- considering the current situation this was a very needed service we're addressing to entrepreneurs, CEOs and VP of People. Hope you all like it!

Sounds interesting! Is a key part of the idea to allow former employers to recommend people they lay off, as opposed to laid off people submitting their profiles independently?
Victor Llatas
Do you manage the permision of the talent to be in the list somehow? Great idea btw
Victor Llatas
@mario_ea thanks, it makes sense, it was a concern. Understood!
Zalan Szekely
Great idea guys. Was just wondering why don't you allow individuals to make use of the service as well?
