Glassdoor Launches in Germany
Company's Second Non-English Site Extends Global Footprint
MILL VALLEY, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 15, 2015) - Glassdoor, the
leading jobs and career marketplace, has officially launched in
Germany with a new, localized website (http://www.glassdoor.de),
and mobile apps on iOS and Android. This is Glassdoor's second
non-English offering and represents the sixth localized Glassdoor
site overall.
The German platform provides local job seekers with more than
500,000 job listings and employee insights, including company
reviews, ratings, and salary reports into 6,500 employers in
Germany, including adidas, Siemens and Deutsche Bank.
"The value of Glassdoor for job seekers and employers is
recognized around the world -- we've already attracted members and
content from more than 190 countries, including Germany. Localizing
this information and being able to offer local jobs allows
Glassdoor to become an even richer and more relevant experience,"
said Robert Hohman, Glassdoor CEO & co-founder. "Our mission is
to help people everywhere find a job and company they love, and we
plan to continue our global expansion with more local sites in 2015
and beyond."
The German launch follows the October 2014 debut of a website
and mobile apps for the French market. The company opened its first
European office in London in April 2014 to support the company's
international expansion.
Unlike any other platform, Glassdoor is populated with anonymous
employee-generated content paired with the latest job listings,
providing valuable information and perspectives about what it's
really like to work at a company, shared by people who know the
company best -- its employees. Today, approximately 25 percent of
Glassdoor's traffic comes from outside the United States. Glassdoor
currently employs approximately 350 people and is hiring across the
United States and in Europe.
In addition to Glassdoor.com, the company website and mobile
apps are now localized in Germany, France, UK, Canada, Australia
and India.
