Our take

Professional networking sites such as LinkedIn provide ways for candidates to connect with companies within an industry. However, on-site information is often unverified, out of date and thus unusable. The Org has built a free-to-use database that charts leadership teams within a company with the aim to locate and fill gaps of employment.

Unlike other professional networking sites that focus on users connecting with prospective employers, The Org offers its services to companies and job-seekers alike. By quantifying employment gaps within a business and advertising these gaps, the startup offers a data-driven approach to the recruitment process.

With over $20 million in funding secured from investors such as Founders Fund, Sequoia and Tiger Global, The Org aims to upscale their current database, integrating with Greenhouse to provide data for their platform. In the future it will also look to expanding its offerings into HR tools via more integrations and APIs, as well as through in-house services.

Company values

  • Do the dishes: We value people that put the team first and do whatever is necessary regardless of your seniority or what your job description says. Sometimes that might mean you literally need to do the dishes
  • Go for it!: We value people that take initiative and execute on their ideas. We take ownership and passionately seize opportunities to create, to learn, and to grow. We run towards a problem, rather than away from it, and fail fast and learn from our mistakes
  • Be a contrarian: We dare to go against popular beliefs and seek out principle-first solutions over incremental progress. We aim to find the best solution, not the obvious one or the one that’s been found by others before
  • Hygge: A Danish word meaning “cozy”, “belonging” or “togetherness”, representing the way we treat our office community. We value diversity and seek out people who want to join the “hygge”
  • Learn out Loud: We work transparently, dare to be vulnerable, and own our imperfections. Learning from each other builds a strong common ground from which everyone can grow together
