JobGet Expands with SnagAJob Acquisition, Reaching 100 Million Hourly Workers

In a strategic acquisition, Boston-based JobGet has acquired SnagAJob, its third purchase in less than 18 months. SnagAJob, a notable name in the hourly job market sector, will continue to operate as a distinct entity, yet will share its job-seeker database with JobGet. This merger will furnish employers with access to a vast pool of 100 million potential employees. While specifics regarding the transaction's financials were not disclosed, the deal is well-regarded by investors in both companies. JobGet, launched in 2020, is recognized for its mobile-first approach, ensuring rapid connections between hourly job seekers and employers. This acquisition is intended to maximize efficiency and coverage in the hourly workforce domain in the United States, with little overlap between the two companies' databases. Founded in 2000, SnagAJob has a significant footprint and has raised over $100 million since its inception. It continues to uphold its mission, according to CEO Keith Forshew, by helping hourly workers find suitable employment opportunities. JobGet's acquisition strategy includes prior purchases of Heroes Jobs and Wirkn, furthering its commitment to innovate within the hiring space, particularly for the younger demographic influenced by platforms akin to TikTok.
