Our take

Circular provides an online job platform specializing in matching coders, engineers, and developers of all experience levels with job interviews for tech startups, removing the usual process of manually applying for jobs. Recommendations are based on preferences that users must fill in, allowing them to streamline their job-seeking process whilst helping companies to find relevant talent to help scale their business.

Whilst Circular faces competition from similar tech startup-focused job platforms such as Otta, the company stands out with its application-free approach, removing the time-consuming process of applying for jobs. The company has recently expanded out from Europe into the UK, lists over 2,700 tech jobs, and has helped companies hire over 1,000 applicants so far.
