What FastJobs does
FastJobs, operated by FastCo Pte. Ltd., is a mobile-first job marketplace targeting non-executive job seekers in Southeast Asia, primarily Singapore, with operating presence in Malaysia and the Philippines. The platform connects part-time, contract, gig, and entry-level workers with employers across retail, F&B, logistics, hospitality, manufacturing, and healthcare through a mobile application available on iOS, Android, and Huawei AppGallery. Core product features include one-tap job applications, real-time job alerts, and direct in-app chat with employers, with social login (Google and Facebook OAuth) simplifying onboarding for lower-income and gig worker demographics.
The FastJobs ecosystem extends beyond the core marketplace through two adjacent products: FastLearn, an online learning platform offering approximately 392 courses across multiple industries (with SkillsFuture Credit and NSA Subsidy support), and FastGig, a companion gig work platform addressing short-term manpower needs. The company monetizes through employer-paid job posting fees on a transaction basis; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. Distribution is primarily self-serve and product-led through mobile app downloads and a separate employer web portal (employer.fastjobs.sg), supported by social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and Telegram.
At observed points in time the platform claims over 1.5 million users who have found jobs through the service and 6,200+ active job listings in Singapore. Anchor employer customers include Marina Bay Sands, NTUC Fairprice/FairPrice Group, McDonald's Singapore, Uniqlo, Certis, and Luckin Coffee. FastCo has raised approximately US$11.9M across disclosed rounds, including a US$7.5M Series A in November 2022 led by OSK Ventures International with participation from Cento Ventures and Kairous Capital. The company is headquartered in Midview City, Singapore, and operates with a headcount of 11-50 employees.
