Vettery, another recruiting platform, aims to shake up the industry – in part by holding true to time-tested principles like “being able to identify, hire and celebrate the recruiting process.” Vettery makes candidates request access to its database of jobs, posted by a selection of partner companies. Once a user is vetted and approved, they’ll get paired with potential jobs they might be interested in. The idea?
