Edtech Talently Secures $3M Seed Round

Talently, an edtech startup, has raised $3 million in seed funding from 500 Startups Latam, Alaya Capital, Salkantay Ventures, Newtype Ventures, Potencia Ventures, Latin Leap, and others.

Talently is a firm that develops tech talent and links it with global organizations through an online job marketplace. Since the epidemic began, the company has grown 50 times and continues to grow at a rate of 30% every month.

The platform assists software developers by providing tools to help them find work. Talently, in particular, teaches kids employability skills like personal branding and managing job interviews.

Technical English and the development of technical abilities are two further topics.

The platform evaluates each profile so that the instruction can be tailored to the student’s specific needs.

Talently’s marketplace also allows people to apply for jobs at some of the world’s most relevant technological companies and startups, like Pinterest, Nubank, Mercado Libre, and Paypal.

Talently will use the new money to build a “smart match” platform that will help organizations streamline and cut their hiring processes by up to 50%.

Companies will be able to hire an employee in fewer than 10 days, according to the startup’s value proposition.

This new platform will launch in Mexico and the United States. Talently will also be able to consolidate its activities in Mexico, Peru, and Colombia, as well as expand its position in Argentina, thanks to this seed round.
