JobWords is a brand that was founded in 2017 to address the gap in the user experience provided by recruiting software for tech-savvy candidates. While marketing practices and user-centric design have advanced for customer-facing software, enterprise HR and Talent Acquisition software has become outdated and clunky. JobWords' mission is to provide delightful experiences for both job seekers and employers, with better returns on their job ad investments.

The founder of JobWords, Tim Semple, has over 12 years of experience in developing recruitment solutions for global enterprises and international governments. Tim recognized that enterprises were investing heavily in employer branding and talent attraction, but were getting poor conversion rates. Job seekers were showing interest but not starting applications due to the outdated job boards and applicant tracking systems.

Tim's motivation is to offer talent acquisition and recruitment teams the same performance and optimization tools that sales or marketing teams expect. Since its launch, JobWords has achieved significant milestones, including rebranding in 2018, receiving pre-seed investment from Coca-Cola's Xcelerate Program and non-equity investment from the NSW Government in 2018, and integrating with SAP SuccessFactors in 2019. The company has also participated in programs such as Microsoft's Remarkable Disability Tech program with their AI-powered JobMatcher.
