OptimHire, the first personalized AI recruiter, is announcing a strategic partnership with Nexxt, a leading HR technology company, with a vast and diverse candidate database. This collaboration empowers employers—especially in healthcare, administration, and sales—to source and hire talent more quickly and cost-effectively, addressing some of the longest hiring timelines in the market.
Historically known for helping tech companies like Amazon, Google, and Dropbox fill roles in an average of just 12 days, OptimHire is now expanding its reach into high-urgency sectors such as healthcare, where the average time-to-fill is 49 days, leaving clinics, hospitals, and care facilities understaffed. By integrating Nexxt’s vast and diverse candidate pool, OptimHire’s AI-powered platform can now serve employers in industries that have historically struggled with slow and expensive hiring cycles.
Nexxt is a trusted hiring partner of Fortune 500 companies and leading healthcare employers. By teaming together OptimHire’s AI-driven platform and risk-free recruitment model with Nexxt’s reach, the two companies are on a mission to make efficient hiring more accessible than ever.
“We’re building the future of hiring where companies can staff teams in days, not quarters,” said Lakshmi (Larry) Kodali, CEO and co-founder of OptimHire. “Partnering with Nexxt allows us to bring our platform to new sectors like healthcare, where time-to-hire is critical.”
The announcement follows a series of major milestones for OptimHire, including its recent $5M funding round led by Mucker Capital’s Omar Hamoui, and the appointments of Veronica Kautz, OptimHire’s CRO, and Sam Bhooshi, OptimHire’s VP of Sales.
Founded in 2019, OptimHire is an AI-powered Outcome-based hiring platform that saves hundreds of hours per hire and reduces hiring costs by up to 80%. With a candidate database of 16 million and a deep referral network, the company proudly helps more than 500 companies connect with top technology talent across the globe.
