(OTCQB: RCRT) ("Recruiter" or the "Company"), a leading recruiting marketplace that empowers a network of over 20,000 small and independent recruiters, today announced its response to and current assessment of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Miles Jennings, CEO of Recruiter.com, commented, "Our first priority during this unprecedented time is the health and safety of our employees and community of clients, partners, and recruiters. We moved quickly to establish virtual operations, perform helpful outreach to our community, and focus on areas of hiring where we could make the most positive and meaningful impact, such as through our healthcare recruiting practice.”

To assist its network of recruiters during this uncertain time and to take advantage of the virtual environment, Recruiter made its popular recruitment training program 100% free using code “LearnRecruiting”.

Recent events related to COVID-19 have actually caused an uptick in our available open jobs due to our focus on areas of continued strong demand, such as healthcare, logistics, telecom, and financial services. Interestingly, during the most recent week, job listings on the platform were up 250%.”

The COVID-19 pandemic has required the Company's management to focus their attention primarily on rising to meet the challenges presented by the pandemic with decisive action, ensuring continuous operations and adjusting the Company's plans and marketing to fit current opportunities.
