About Welcome to the Jungle

Welcome to the Jungle, founded in 2015 by friends Jérémy Clédat and Bertrand Uzeel, operates as a multi-channel media company focused on the recruitment and employer branding sector. The concept originated from a conversation between the co-founders about the shortcomings of the job search experience. Clédat, with a background in finance at ESCP, and the creatively-driven Uzeel combined their complementary skills to launch the Paris-based venture, with Clédat serving as CEO.

Read full description

The company's core business revolves around enhancing employer branding to connect companies with suitable candidates. Its revenue model is primarily based on tiered subscription services for businesses, which provide access to recruitment and employer branding tools. This is supplemented by advertising solutions, such as sponsored content, and premium offerings. Welcome to the Jungle provides a platform for companies to create detailed profiles that include photos, articles, and video interviews with employees, offering candidates a transparent view of the company culture. This approach aims to attract candidates who are a better cultural fit, thereby improving the quality of applications for employers.

For job seekers, the platform is a free resource offering a job board and a wealth of content, including articles, podcasts, and videos, designed to provide career guidance and insights into the world of work. The company also developed its own Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to streamline the recruitment process. Since its inception, the firm has secured significant funding, including a €50 million Series C round in January 2023, bringing its total raised capital to over €79 million. This funding is aimed at fueling international expansion, particularly in the United States, and further developing its product offerings. The company has demonstrated a consistent growth trajectory, reporting €30 million in annual recurring revenue at the end of 2022 with a client base of over 5,000 companies.
