What StartupJobs.cz does

StartupJobs.cz (legal entity StartupJobs.com s.r.o.) is a Czech online job board and recruitment platform founded in 2012 and headquartered in Prague 5 — Stodůlky, focused on startups, technology companies, and innovative employers in the Czech Republic. The platform operates a two-sided marketplace connecting job seekers with employers, supported by a recommendation engine that ranks listings by recency, paid prioritization, and personalization. Product breadth includes a three-tier job-listing subscription (Start at 7,000 Kč, Extra at 7,999 Kč, Premium at 9,999 Kč, excluding VAT), a 2025-launched AI Candidate Profile module for NLP-based match analysis, knowledge tests, embedded career pages, a public REST API with real-time webhooks, and employer-brand advertising (banner and homepage profile slots). The platform reports 165,000+ registered users, 3,800+ cumulative hiring companies, 41,000+ successful hires, and 350,000+ monthly visitors.

Revenue mechanics combine per-listing subscriptions with recurring advertising (banner ads at 9,999 Kč/month, homepage profiles at 24,999 Kč/year) and a discounted Startup Program for early-stage companies. Distribution is self-serve first, augmented by named account managers for enterprise clients (Rohlik.cz, Air Bank, Shoptet, Bolt, Publicis, Wultra, etc.). The company layers community and content assets on top — StartupJobs Meetups in Prague and Brno, the StartupTalk podcast, an HR-focused blog, a Slack community, and the annual Startup Report (2017–2025) — which function as top-of-funnel lead generation and category authority. CEO and founder Filip Mikschik leads the company alongside COO Tereza Müllerová, with no disclosed external funding or institutional investors; ownership and control remain with the founder-led management team.
