By bringing together Seiza’s expertise in social media recruitment and Adzuna’s AI-powered job search capabilities, we’re creating the world’s first job-matching platform that offers a full-funnel recruitment advertising solution, giving jobseekers access to every job in one place, and presenting employers with access to a talent pool of over four billion that includes both active jobseekers and passive candidates.

At Seiza, our mission has been to simplify and accelerate high-volume hiring for companies and recruiters. Joining forces with Adzuna enables us to bring our vision to life at a much larger scale. We firmly believe that Adzuna’s expertise, as well as its strong presence in the world, will help us grow our solution globally. We look forward to the future of Seiza as part of Adzuna.”
