ABOUT PLATSA
Two friends. One shared frustration.
Ariana and Joel have been friends for fifteen years. Each had seen hiring fail, from both sides of the table.
They didn't want to build another pile of applications. They wanted a place where job seekers and hiring teams show real interest and meet on equal terms.
01 / The name
A place to meet.
Platsa comes from plaza, a square, a common place. That's what we want to build: a place where both sides of hiring meet on equal terms.
02 / What we believe
People, not paperwork.
- 01Effort should be seen.
- 02Interest should be real, on both sides.
- 03AI does the thinking. People make the decisions.
