Glassdoor, a job site perhaps best known for its anonymous employee reviews, has raised $70 million in funding to continue building out job search and recruiting tools for employees and employers in the U.S. and increasingly abroad.
The latest round of funding was led by Tiger Global and Google Capital, Google's growth fund. To date, Glassdoor has raised about $160 million in funding and now has 27 million users worldwide.
“We’re incredibly excited to welcome Google Capital as an investor, and already see great value in the collaboration as we accelerate investments in strategic growth areas such as expanding Glassdoor's global footprint,” Robert Hohman, CEO and co-founder of Glassdoor, said in a statement.
Glassdoor was founded in 2007 and gained attention for its database of anonymous (and seemingly candid) employee reviews and company ratings. It has also developed a job search engine, recruiting tools for employees -- which will likely be its key to growing revenue -- and more recently invested in adapting its website and app for markets abroad.
