About

BasharSoft, founded in 2009 in Cairo, Egypt, operates WUZZUF and Forasna — two of the largest online recruitment and employment marketplaces in the MENA region. WUZZUF is Egypt's #1 career destination, serving over 500,000 job seekers monthly and more than 15,000 top employers, with over 1.5 million CVs viewed on the platform. Forasna serves Arabic-speaking blue-collar workers, who represent the majority of Egypt's active labor force. BasharSoft has since expanded its ecosystem to include iCareer (education-to-employment for early talent) and Recruitera (end-to-end hiring automation), positioning itself as the leading employment technology company across emerging markets.
