Company profile

researched Aug 2026

HoyTrabajas operates an online job search platform focused on Colombia. Candidates register with basic personal, academic and work information, complete a profile, apply to vacancies and are then contacted directly by the hiring company. The platform positions itself as searching for work "without barriers of experience or studies," and organizes listings by occupational category, including call center, security, courier and driving, installation and maintenance, sales/commercial, general services, kitchen and food, and production and manufacturing.

Listings on the site are posted with named cities and stated monthly salary ranges in Colombian pesos, spanning roles from operational positions (warehouse and logistics operators, packaging operators, forklift drivers, security guards, restaurant delivery) to commercial and managerial roles (sales development representatives, commercial directors, retail and HoReCa commercial managers). Postings cover Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla, Bucaramanga, Villavicencio, Manizales and Armenia, as well as nationwide roles. The company describes itself as more than a job board, stating that it guides candidates through each stage of the process, and references selection experts involved in candidate screening.

A product feature uses artificial intelligence to generate a candidate's résumé in downloadable PDF format from the personal, academic and work information entered at registration. The site also tells users that completing a profile to 100% increases their chances of finding work up to fivefold, and that the company notifies registered users of new vacancies matching their profile.

Business model

Two-sided job marketplace: employers publish vacancies on the platform, and registered job seekers create profiles and apply to those listings, with the platform matching candidates to relevant openings and notifying them of new vacancies.

Traction

The company's site reports more than 8 million users on its job portal, more than 1,000 companies publishing vacancies, 500 allied partner companies, more than 500 available job offers, and more than 12,000 people who obtained employment through the platform.

Latest developments

The site carries a promotional placement for Tpaga, a mobile application described as allowing users to collect, pay and withdraw money from their phone.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography

Market position

Presents itself as a job search engine and employment service in Colombia distinct from a conventional job board, emphasizing guided candidate support and expert-led selection processes.

Removal of experience and formal-education prerequisites in its job search, AI-generated résumés for candidates, profile-completion-based vacancy matching and notifications, and human involvement in the selection process rather than listings alone.

Technology

Web-based job search and application portal with candidate profile management, category- and location-based vacancy search, profile-to-vacancy matching and notifications, and an artificial-intelligence feature that generates a candidate résumé as a downloadable PDF from entered personal, academic and employment data.

Go-to-market

Self-service online registration for candidates, with vacancy listings surfaced by category and city; candidate testimonials and placement statistics are used on the site to encourage sign-ups, and a partner network of allied companies supplies the vacancy inventory.

Two groups: job seekers in Colombia, including those without prior experience or formal education credentials, particularly for operational and commercial roles; and employers recruiting for such positions, described as more than 1,000 companies posting vacancies and 500 allied companies.

Geography

Colombia, with vacancies in the country's main cities including Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla, Bucaramanga, Villavicencio, Manizales and Armenia, plus nationwide listings; some listings reference sales roles covering Central America.
