tilr Celebrates First Anniversary
Second Year Growth to Focus on Artificial Intelligence and Geographic Expansion
CINCINNATI, Oct. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cincinnati-based tech startup tilr, a company that matches qualified workers with companies to meet their immediate placement needs, celebrated the first anniversary of its market release this month, showcasing exponential growth. Since its official launch last September, tilr has secured 35,000 app downloads and 18,000 active users as well as filled 128,000 shifts. The company has grown from five to 33 employees and now has offices in both Cincinnati and Toronto.
"Looking back on this year, the evolution of the recruitment landscape is clear," said tilr co-founder and CEO Carisa Miklusak "We've grown from a concept, to a proven business, to a thought leader at the forefront of reinvigorating an industry critically in need of new technology. We are helping traditional and innovative companies change the way they hire for the better, helping workers find new opportunities and setting an example for state and federal Government on how to care for independent workers."
tilr has revolutionized the employment process with a true algorithmic hiring solution that finds the right talent match-up in moments. Its user-friendly app uniquely focuses on skills matching, providing workers new and diverse opportunities. While tilr eliminates recruitment advertising and job-seeking costs for its clients, it simultaneously eradicates bias and discrimination in the hiring process.
To hear key tilr client and local Cincinnati company, EVERYTHING BUT THE HOUSE (EBTH), tell it: "We decided to team up with tilr because of the ease of obtaining a flex workforce for our Distribution Center, even at a moment's notice," says Jessica Cipollone, Senior Human Resources Business Partner at EBTH. "We're thrilled for this partnership. tilr helps us meet the demands of our business by giving us the ability to reach a ready-to-work workforce that hasn't been presented to us through other services or applications." The HR department notes that tilr's flexibility and immediacy is not offered elsewhere in the marketplace and provides a palpable and practical advantage.
In addition, this year tilr introduced its enterprise solution, empowering employers to use its algorithm to conduct internal skill mapping, better informing their decisions for resource planning.
In the coming months, tilr will further develop machine learning into its proprietary recruitment automation algorithm moving the industry toward true recruitment artificial intelligence (AI), add more functionality to its enterprise solution, and continue to develop portable benefit programs for tilr independent workers. tilr currently operates in four markets – Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton and Northern Kentucky. Conservative rollout estimates based on organic growth sees tilr in 26 markets by the end of 2020.
