Our take

The digital economy is booming, with positions waiting for eager employees. The only problem is that the tech world requires sophisticated skills that not everyone possesses. Enter Flockjay.

With an expert-led training program geared towards preparing students for the world of tech sales, Flockjay is helping to fill the growing need of the digital economy.

The company uses an online learning platform to impart the nuances of tech sales. Flockjays founder, Shaan Hathiramani, used his experience in finance to create a platform that not only helps big business but creates an excellent career mobility tool. Unique to this platform's approach is that students don't pay anything until they get hired. Because of Flockjays approach to tech sales training, companies such as Zoom, Slack and Gusto are keen to recruit these trained students.

With the global sales intelligence market estimated at over $2 billion, Flockjay will need to continue innovating and accommodating the market demands, such as artificial intelligence and remote work, to keep up with more established competitors such as Coursera and Udacity.
