Folq er en transparent og selvbetjent markedsplass som kobler kvalitetssikrede konsulenter med konsulentkjøpere. I dag primært innen IT. Kunder får øyeblikkelig oversikt over kvalifiserte og tilgjengelige konsulenter, og kan kontakte relevante kandidater direkte. Vi ønsker å bygge den prefererte markedsplassen for konsulenter på tvers av nivå, geografi og bransje. Eller bare å lage den diggeste måten å være og å kjøpe konsulenter på. For at våre brukere kan fokusere på det som skaper verdi, automatiserer vi administrative oppgaver og forenkler hele bookingprosessen fra A til Å. Teamet vårt på tolv er balansert med tanke på bakgrunn, alder, personlighet og kjønn. Vi ser på oss selv som ambisiøse og kompetente med åpne sinn. Diskusjoner og meninger oppfordres og er ønskelig, før vi tar en beslutning og gjennomfører dette raskt. Vi legger til rette for å kunne jobbe fokusert med høy hastighet, og med det holde tiden i møter til et minimum. Utover å spise lunsj sammen daglig (i en av Oslos beste kantiner), har vi månedlige middager og andre sosiale happenings. Som en del av Folq arrangerer vi også faglige og sosiale meetups hvor konsulenter på plattformen inviteres inn.

Designed for startups and SMBs, Staffer eliminates the manual busywork of sourcing, screening, and coordination—so teams can focus on selecting the best candidates, not chasing them. What Staffer Does Staffer.ai combines deep recruiting expertise with advanced AI to automate 80% of the hiring process: • Sourcing: AI scouts and engages high-quality passive candidates who aren’t actively applying. • Outreach: Automated outreach and job distribution to maximize visibility—no manual posting. • Screening: Built-in assessments for both hard and soft skills, tailored to the role. • Scheduling: Integrated calendar and video tools handle all interview logistics. • Candidate Experience: A self-service portal keeps applicants informed and engaged. • Workflows: A centralized dashboard offers full transparency into the hiring funnel. • Branding: Instantly create branded, high-converting career pages. • Reference Checks: Automated reference collection—structured and time-saving.
