Backed by new funding from Translink Capital and Indeed, Jobright Agent delivers 2X more interviews and cuts job search time by 80% compared to traditional job boards
Jobright, an AI-native job platform, announced the launch of Jobright Agent, the ‘first-of-its-kind’ AI career agent designed to automate the entire job application process for job seekers. This tool promises to cut job search time by a remarkable 80% and double interview rates, fundamentally changing how professionals find their next career opportunity.
The news comes as Jobright also revealed a successful $3.2 million financing round led by Translink Capital, with notable participation from HR Tech Investments, an affiliate of Indeed.
Moving Beyond Static Job Boards
Traditional job sites leave candidates going through irrelevant or fake listings. Jobright Agent flips the model: it scans thousands of sources, matches each candidate’s skills and goals, and crafts recruiter–ready applications, removing the inefficiencies of traditional search-based boards.
“For decades, job boards made you work. Now, our agent works for you,” said Eric Cheng, Co-founder and CEO of Jobright. “The future of job search is searchless. We’re building a faster, more effective path to employment—so people can focus on what actually moves their careers forward, like growing their skills and preparing for interviews, instead of wasting hours on dead-end applications.”
New Capital Fuels Next-Gen AI Development and Global Expansion
Fresh funding will supercharge Jobright’s next phase of innovation, with a focus on deepening its AI engine and scaling its infrastructure. After a year of rapid, organic adoption, the company is expanding into new markets to match talent with opportunity at a global scale. Jobright is simultaneously building out an employer-facing solution that lets hiring teams connect directly with top candidates.
“Jobright is built on the fundamental premise that there is a better way of doing job search and matching in the age of AI,” said Kelvin Mu, Translink Capital. “Rather than retrofitting AI onto yesterday’s job boards, they built an agent-first platform from scratch.”
