What PŘEDVÝBĚR.CZ does

PŘEDVÝBĚR.CZ is a Czech Republic-based recruitment agency founded in 2008 by František Boudný and Vladimír Kočí, focused on sourcing, screening, and placing candidates for middle and lower-level positions. The company differentiates on a fixed one-time placement fee rather than the salary multiples typical in the industry, and searches across nine major Czech job portals simultaneously to deliver a minimum of five qualified candidates per position within five business days. Its service is built around a specialized candidate database, structured filtering and personal interview screening, and since summer 2023 an AI layer applied to text-based CV and job description matching. The company is headquartered in Prague with a branch office in Brno (opened 2022, expanded to three times its original size in September 2024) and serves clients across multiple sectors including automotive, electronics, logistics, waste management, banking, and research.

The business model is transactional fixed-fee recruitment: clients pay a single one-time fee per successful placement, with revenue scaling linearly with the number of placements rather than via retained contracts or subscription arrangements. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct to corporate clients, supported by content marketing (a blog covering labor market trends, advice, and interviews), email newsletters, and proprietary quarterly labor market surveys that generate earned media coverage. The company has a 70% customer repeat rate, a 93% placement success rate, and lists enterprise clients including Škoda Auto, Panasonic, DHL, CETIN, Swietelski, AVE CZ, and Hypoteční banka.

In July 2024, Genesis Growth Equity Fund I acquired a majority stake while the founders retained significant minority ownership and continue to manage the company, with the stated objective of supporting further regional growth within the Czech Republic and potentially into neighboring countries. As of 2025 the company employed approximately 60 collaborators and reported record annual revenue of 85 million CZK, up from 75 million CZK in 2024, with the Brno branch contributing roughly one-fifth to one-quarter of total revenue.
