Aussie HR and recruitment startup WithYouWithMe has raised $5 million as it ramps up development of its Software-as-a-Service platform and expands further into the US. But for co-founder Luke Rix, success isn’t about dollars in the bank or countries conquered.
Launched in 2015 by Rix and co-founders Sam Baynes and Tom Moore, WithYouWithMe was created to help get Australian veterans into the workforce, while also tackling the skills shortage in the tech industry.
At the time, Moore himself had been medically discharged from the military after seven years, and was struggling to find work.
