LeWeb 2013: MyJobCompany Pays Money For Job Recommendations

Find someone a job – and get a reward for it. That’s the idea behind MyJobCompany, a French start-up we met at the LeWeb 2013 show in London

All too may web start ups are based on a gift economy where users earn meaningless points, or pay for things with their eyeballs. MyJobCompany interested us right away – it is different in offering actual money.

The company is taking a familiar concept into the recruitment sphere. Whilst it looks like a social/business networking service, it also rewards those who help companies find employees. Any user who posts a link on their MyJobCompany account will be financially rewarded if their link is clicked by the applicant who eventually gets the job.
