Classet is a Chicago-based recruiting and training software company building a network specifically for the trades community. Employers use the platform to promote opportunities, find people to hire, and accelerate the training process for entry-level talent. For job seekers and students, Classet offers career quizzes, short-form videos, career path comparison and a streamlined application process. Its initial focus has been on the construction trades, helping companies connect with and hire Carpenters, Plumbers, Electricians, and HVAC technicians — a sector with nearly 700,000 current job openings. Led by co-founders Nick Jones, Cooper Newby and Gino Rooney, the company intends to scale out its platform. The company raised $3M in Seed funding to support that expansion.
