An online marketplace that connects highly educated people as well as low, medium, or no education workers with employers
About Wuzzuf
FORASNA is Egypt’s first and most reliable database for the part of the workforce with primary/middle education (blue collars) in the Middle East. It also serves highly educated job seekers (white collars) searching for jobs that don’t require knowledge of any language other than Arabic. FORASNA has the first organized and systematic database and platform that focus on connecting blue collars with employers: helping job seekers get the right job and helping companies hire suitable candidates in an easy and smart way. Blue collars represent 66.8% of the total active labor force in Egypt. Not only that but also there is remarkable supply and demand in that market without a single platform to tackle its issues. The lack of proper connection channels between the job seekers and employers in this market at scale contributes to this problem. All of this coupled with the fact that this segment has a high unemployment rate of 12.5%* demonstrates the significance of the problem. That was until FORASNA was launched. FORASNA is a smart connection that connects job seekers with companies looking to hire, using an easy and ingenious solution for businesses to fulfill their recruitment needs, by providing different plans and packages that suit diverse requirements.
