Hireguide has scaled from one to ten Toronto team members in the last 18 months. The company plans to double its presence in Toronto over the next three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hireguide chose Toronto to access the abundance of skilled talent and prolific Canadian client base. Toronto is home to more than half of all Fortune 500 Companies as well as innovative scale-ups. The diversity of the region\u2019s economy and talent base makes the Toronto Region the ideal location for a people-focused company like Hireguide to expand its services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time-zone alignment with the U.S. was another factor in Hireguide\u2019s expansion decision, allowing the company to continue seamlessly serving its U.S. customers from Toronto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Hireguide is a B Corp Company, a certification designated to for-profit corporations with a high social impact. Hireguide is making clearer and fairer interviews accessible to everyone, offering smaller companies the opportunity to apply to use Hireguide\u2019s expert services for free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inclusive hiring is at the forefront of Hireguide\u2019s values, making Toronto the perfect environment to make an impact. The Toronto Region has a skilled and educated workforce, with 67 per cent of the regional population having achieved a post-secondary degree \u2013 higher than any U.S. metro area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The talent pool in the region is also among the most diverse in North America. Over half of the Toronto Region\u2019s population is foreign-born, however, a startling lack of foreign-born workers are employed in their chosen profession. Skills-based, structured interviews offer fairer access to economic activity.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cThe best companies know that you can\u2019t just spot excellent talent, you need an excellent process to reveal it. We\u2019re using AI and hiring science to do just that,\u201d said Scott Parish, CEO and Founder of Hireguide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/torontoglobal.ca\/\">Toronto Global<\/a>, the Toronto Region\u2019s investment attraction agency, was instrumental throughout Hireguide\u2019s expansion journey, assisting every step of the way to ensure a smooth transition.<br><br>\u201cToronto Global has made doing business in Toronto so easy. They supported everything from setting up bank accounts, establishing a Canadian subsidiary, moving an Engineering leader from Ukraine, and introducing us to customers. It was a complete solution,\u201d said Parish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHireguide operating in Toronto will have a tremendous social and economic impact. Clearing up interview and hiring barriers in the region will allow for faster job growth, ultimately benefiting employers and workers alike. We are thrilled to have worked with an organization with such an imperative mission and look forward to seeing its continued growth in our region,\u201d said Stephen Lund, CEO of Toronto Global.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCongratulations to the HireGuide team on their expansion in Toronto. Our City is home to one of the most highly skilled and diverse workforces in the world. I am excited to see how Hireguide helps more workers find work and more employers find talent in our city and beyond,\u201d said Oliva Chow, Mayor of Toronto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hireguide is a new company, but its impact is spreading. The HR-Tech company has helped over 5,000 Recruiters and Hiring Managers in global companies like Bell, Enbridge, Nike, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find hundreds of free interview guides, cheat sheets and training at hireguide.com.
