Career Center

What Career Center does

Career Center (careercenter.am), operated by ProfEx LTD, is Armenia's first and longest-running dedicated online job and career portal, founded in 2002 and headquartered at 25 Abovyan Street, Yerevan. The company operates a self-serve, multi-language web platform (English, Russian, Armenian) serving two primary segments: Armenian and international job seekers, and employers ranging from local SMBs and enterprises to international NGOs and development agencies. The core technology is a standard online job portal supporting job listings, a resume database with resume builder, email-based job alert distribution, and a separately maintained blue-collar labor exchange section covering both domestic Armenia and international markets (USA, UAE, Egypt, Ghana, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia). The platform is augmented by 11 profession-segmented Telegram channels (Sales, HR, IT, Finance, Marketing, Legal, Healthcare, etc.) that serve as owned distribution infrastructure for targeted job delivery.

The business model is predominantly B2B subscription and transaction-based, monetized through employer-side fees while remaining free for individual job seekers. Revenue streams include: (i) per-announcement posting fees (AMD 19,800–83,100) and unlimited subscription packages (AMD 999,000/year or AMD 199,000/month) for employers; (ii) resume database access sold per-resume (AMD 9,900) or via annual subscription (AMD 990,000/year); (iii) percentage-based executive recruitment/placement fees (7.5%–15% of annual salary); (iv) tiered resume proofreading services for job seekers (AMD 47,000–178,000); and (v) language courses in English, Russian, and TOEFL preparation (AMD 28,000–47,500/month). Marketing is executed through a multi-channel digital strategy combining a career advice blog (17+ articles), organic social on Facebook/LinkedIn/Instagram/X, email newsletters, and the Telegram community network.

The company has operated continuously for over 24 years with no disclosed external funding, no parent company or subsidiaries, and no publicly available revenue figures. Customer base comprises 931 registered companies and approximately 150,000 monthly site visits. Notable enterprise customers include EvocaBank (890+ postings), Grand Candy, EGIS Pharmaceuticals, and Incript; notable NGO customers include GIZ, Austrian Development Agency, AGBU, CARD Foundation, and Eurasia Partnership Foundation. The leadership team consists of founder and president Armen Yeremyan, Head of Marketing Anna Abrahamyan, and CTO Jor Aleqyan.
