"Recruiter.com delivered a strong quarter, growing revenues and margins while reducing operating expenses," said Evan Sohn, CEO of Recruiter.com. "Strong product market fit and solid hiring demand helped grow revenues by 62% y/y to $7.1 million and achieve 3.5% organic revenue growth sequentially."
