Findem Marks Record Company Growth and Momentum Milestones
Shift to a foundational platform strategy and deep innovation have buoyed business traction and market success.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30, 2023 — Findem, the only AI talent acquisition and management solution powered by unique 3D data, today announced exceptional business performance over the past year, including financial growth, notable new customer wins, technological innovation, and continued market expansion.
During its fiscal year, Findem grew annual recurring revenue (ARR) 3x over the previous year and expects to continue this trajectory to finish the financial year with 4x ARR growth. The company has also added 37% more clients to its roster, including notable enterprise wins such as PayPal and Nutanix, and its annual contract value per customer grew sharply to 2.5x.
“Findem was built for success from day one. It’s been extraordinary to see the company power through a down market, and then excel beyond our expectations and market conditions,” said Findem CEO Hari Kolam. “While other technology companies have been in survival mode for the past year, we doubled down on innovation to take advantage of where the market will be when growth returns and that’s showing up in our top-line performance, platform advancements, and caliber of clients.”
Talent Transformation Strategy Spurring Enterprise Growth
Key to Findem’s success has been its shift from a direct sourcing solution targeting external talent to an integrated, foundational talent platform that enables companies to match their hiring strategy to market conditions. Companies can use Findem’s Talent Data Cloud to source talent from their entire ecosystem of hiring channels, including both current and past applicants, referrals, alumni, internal employees, external sources, and many others. With this all-encompassing reach, Findem now impacts 100% of hires, and will continue to do so when growth returns.
The significant momentum that Findem has gained this year is attributable to this platform strategy. Since launching its Talent Data Cloud, Findem’s enterprise customer base has increased 430%, and more global customers are switching to Findem.
“We’re tapping into the breadth of what Findem has to offer and its Talent Data Cloud has allowed us to replace single-point solutions for outbound sourcing, internal candidate search, referrals, and managing high volumes of inbound applicants,” said Alvin Lam, senior vice president of talent at RingCentral, a leading provider of cloud communications and collaboration software with over 500,000 global customers. “By consolidating our tech stack we’re spending less, our recruiters are more productive and we’re hitting our hiring and diversity goals. It’s been nothing short of game changing.”
"Ethical AI is reshaping the future of the talent landscape and our mission is to leverage its full potential to cultivate a world-class workforce,” said David Malloy, vice president of global talent acquisition at Nutanix, a global leader in cloud software. “Findem’s innovative platform has made a significant impact on our talent strategy and helped set us up for continued transformation and success.”
As part of its tremendous growth, Findem has achieved a number of major milestones, including:
