We use 60-second videos by employers and applicants to capture motivated applications, speed-up the hiring process by 80% and reduce costs by connecting end-to-end users - and removing the middleman. gigl's short-video concept captures society's "do everything on a mobilephone" behaviour - our platform is used by over 40,000 people already and promotes personality (in both job descriptions and job applications) over lifeless written applications. We thrive in all industries - from retail, hospitality to office work. In short - anywhere where personality is critical to inward and outward success!
