What Profesia CZ does

Profesia.cz is a Czech online job portal headquartered in Prague, founded in 2007 and operating as part of the Alma Career Oy network, a Finnish parent group that runs recruitment platforms across Central Europe, the Baltics, the Adriatic region, and Scandinavia. The platform functions as a dual-sided marketplace: job seekers access listings, a CV builder, personalized email job alerts, salary benchmarking via Platy.cz, and career content via a blog and Spotify podcast, while employers and recruitment agencies pay for job postings, branded listings, and recruitment solutions. Coverage spans all 14 Czech regions plus international listings (289 foreign jobs disclosed), with platform localization in Czech, Slovak, English, and German.

The underlying technology is a web-based job aggregation and search platform with filtering by region, salary, position type, contract type, language, and posting date, plus RSS/HTML/XML data exports for partner-site syndication. Adjacent properties under the same corporate umbrella include Seduo.cz (online learning), Platy.cz (salary comparison), Teamio (recruitment software), Arnold (chatbot pre-screening), and Nelisa.com (recruitment campaigns), accessible via cross-links on the Profesia.cz site. Distribution is amplified through a content partnership program that lets third-party sites (e.g., Hyperstudent.cz, Motiv8.cz, regional portals) embed Profesia.cz listings.

The business model is a classic two-sided recruitment marketplace: free for candidates, monetized primarily through paid subscription job-posting services for employers and recruitment agencies, with pricing disclosed via a dedicated Ceník služeb (pricing) page. The locally disclosed entity is small (7 employees), suggesting that revenue, product, and engineering scale reside at the Alma Career parent level rather than within the Czech operating entity itself. Operational indicators include 750+ active listings and named enterprise accounts such as ManpowerGroup s.r.o. (172 active postings), Škoda Auto a.s., HOFMANN WIZARD s.r.o., P&P Construction s.r.o., and O2 Financial Services s.r.o.
