Describe your company's current technology and solutions
Spontaneous Paid Opportunities Today Inc. (SPOT App) was founded in 2019 as a Social Enterprise to provide a technology platform that offers free resources for up-skilling, micro-certifications and job opportunities with hiring employers. Through partnerships with Employment Ontario Offices, Vocational Service Organizations and Non-Profit Organizations, Spontaneous Paid Opportunities Today Inc. has become a vital tool for Marginalized Canadians, Newcomers to Canada and Persons with Disabilities to assist in their foundations for future careers.
Employers get connected with pre-vetted job seekers that have the required skills and credentials for the jobs you are looking to hire. With no commitments or placement fees, our platform is used as a new form of paid interview to "try before you buy".
