2. Startup Founders cater to those managing hiring independently, meeting the need for cost-effective candidate evaluation without recruiters.
3. Talent Matchers on platforms like Fiverr, Upwork, Upstaff, Toptal, Lemon, Arc etc. Fulfill the requirement for precise matching on freelance platforms, enhancing candidate-job alignment.
