Breaking news: JobGet acquires Snagajob

JobGet today acquired SnagAJob, its 3rd acquisition in 18 months.  JobGet is an app-first platform for quickly hiring hourly workers. In that niche, speed is key. SnagAJob was founded 25 years ago and was the largest hourly worker site in the U.S. with 100 million profiles of hourly workers. In our interview with JobGet's CEO, Tony Liu, he acknowledged some overlap between users but indicated that much of the data that Snagajob had on those users was not also possessed by JobGet and that roughly half of the users in Snagajob's database do not appear to be duplicative. So, although the deal seems on the surface to be designed to eliminate a direct competitor, there are great opportunities to create a one plus one equals three. Cohosts Peter Zollman of AIM Group and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter are grateful to Tony for making time for the interview on what surely was a busy and momentous day for JobGet.
