Fika Jobs raises $4M to build a video-first hiring platform where AI agents interview candidates
Summary
Stockholm-based startup Fika Jobs has raised $4 million in pre-seed funding to build a video-first hiring platform. The service utilizes AI interview agents, powered by Google's Gemini, to conduct 10-minute video interviews with job seekers, transforming their responses into interactive profiles. By emphasizing personality and communication skills over traditional resumes, the founders aim to help employers identify talent that might otherwise be overlooked. The platform operates on a success-fee model for employers, while remaining free for candidates, with plans for a broader public launch in Sweden this fall.
