“India is at the forefront of using AI in recruitment with approx 69% followed by UAE with 68% of the companies using AI tools for hiring purposes. We see huge potential in expanding to the UAE and testing international waters. This expansion fits our long-term goal of helping businesses use technology to work better, allowing employees to concentrate on what they do best. “Samyak Jain, Co-founder and CEO of Zeko AI, added, “The UAE is especially good at using AI in work settings, making it a perfect place for our solutions.”
Zeko AI is expanding by adding features like easy connection with current ATS systems and AI interview Copilot. These smart agents interview candidates and give important feedback during hiring. This builds on Zeko AI’s achievements in automatic pre-screening, smart ranking of candidates, detailed reports, custom criteria, and AI-led interviews, all designed to efficiently find top candidates and eliminate those who do not perform well.
The startup aims to grow its team significantly and open a new office in Dubai, UAE. With this expansion, the revenue is expected to increase by more than 100% year-on-year for the next three years due to rising demand for AI recruitment solutions. An important measure to track the success of this expansion is Faster Hiring while making the quality of hiring consistent. The main goal is to ensure standardized evaluation across teams while speeding up the hiring process.
