One year

progressive companies in Sri Lanka with the most qualified people, offering a

"During the 2015/ 2016 period, the website attracted more than half a
million unique visitors and thereby established a strong presence in the online
jobs market in Sri Lanka. As the site traffic figures attest, everjobs has
become an integral part of the career management for thousands of job seekers
in Sri Lanka," said everjobs Sri Lanka MD and Country Manager, Félix
Lienau.
"The
improved job market is fueling renewed optimism in the IT, banking, financial
services, apparel, education, telecommunication and healthcare sectors. The everjobs.lk career survey recorded that,
in July/August 2015, online recruitment hit an all-time high with a
quarter-on-quarter growth improving consistently. 2016 is expected to deliver
the returns of the various reforms proposed by the Government. And it is
heartening to see the robust growth of the startup ecosystem that's urging
individuals to explore new business avenues. With a greater role for the
private sector job recruitment at hand, everjobs plans to expand job
opportunities to smaller cities and towns across Sri Lanka, in a bid to further
boost the medium and small scale sector,” he added.
everjobs also recently announced the
appointment of Gijs Verheijke as its Chief Executive Officer for the Asia
region. Verheijke will be in charge of leading day-to-day management decisions
as well as giving strategic guidance to drive the business growth in Sri Lanka,
Bangladesh, Myanmar and Cambodia.
“We are
active in some of the most interesting and emerging economies of the world. Our
main goal is not only to grow in those markets but to be able to really have an
impact on the countries’ development. By providing a simple and effective
online career portal we are changing the game for both employers and
professionals, making it far easier for them to find each other than before,”
said Gijs Verheijke.
