Greek startup raises $1.5 million to expand its cloud-based recruitment platform

Online job application platforms (aka, where career dreams go to die) are challenging. Candidates hate them, employers can’t use them, and everyone ends up blaming each other for the hiccups. European recruiting player Workable just received $1.5 million to help it make recruiting a smoother ride for everyone involved. Greylock IL led the round, which now brings Workable to a total of $2.45 million in funding. The company had previously picked up $950,000 in seed funding from Jeremie Openfund II and other investors. In a $14 billion human resources tech market, Workable is putting all its efforts into making sure its product takes a bite out of as much of the apple as possible.
