Souktel’s Mobile Phone Employment Service reduces unemployment and stimulates growth in emerging economies by connecting job seekers and employers via SMS.
Most developing-world job seekers fail to find work because they lack good labor market information. Their web access is low, their social networks are weak, and their mobility is limited. Without the right resources, many slip into cycles of joblessness and poverty despite having skills and education.

Souktel’s unique platform allows job seekers to create SMS mini-résumés listing their skills and location. Résumés are texted to a central database, which hundreds of employers search daily. Employers also post mini-ads on the same database, so people can search for jobs from their own handsets. Souktel’s technology currently helps more than 10,000 job seekers and 200 employers every day.
