On a busy Wednesday evening, Wantedly Singapore attracted over 1,000 job candidates and tech enthusiasts who convened at WeWork Suntec to meet 10 hyper-growth tech companies looking to hire various roles in Singapore.

On the purpose and motivation to organise their inaugural hiring festival here, Amin Sulaiman, Business Development at Wantedly, pointed towards a trend and observation on hyper-growth tech companies hiring in Singapore. “More companies are now focussing on employer branding to attract quality candidates, especially when it comes to hiring for technical talents such as developers and engineers.”
