Launched in 2012 and now listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, the talent acquisition and engagement platform, LiveHire helps leading organisations build extraordinary workforces, fast.

I recently spoke with Jon Bowker from LiveHire (ASX:LVH) about marketing for HR Tech startups and how to grow an HR Tech company.

LiveHire is the award-winning, cloud-based talent acquisition tech company behind the Live Talent Ecosystem, where people connect privately with Live Talent Communities of the best employer brands. LiveHire dramatically accelerates your end-to-end hiring process and revolutionises your candidate engagement and recruiter experience.

• What does LiveHire do and who does it help?
• How LiveHire has positioned itself in the market.
• LiveHire’s Women In Tech initiative.
• How LiveHire has grown so quickly. Their main marketing channels and advice for new HR tech startups.
