Driver app Get Driven becomes professional matchmaker

Driving around in the latest cars while applying for a permanent job? For the drivers of our Official Supplier Get Driven, it can be done. The app that allows anyone to book a student as a driver has been completely revamped. From now on, you can also see what training the students driving the vehicles are taking. Interesting for both employer and student, as it turns out: many entrepreneurs have already found new employees and thus many students a permanent job via Get Driven.

WAR FOR TALENT

Finding suitable personnel has become a dilemma for many entrepreneurs. There is quite a war for talent and many employers are looking for new, suitable employees in every possible way. After its latest update, the driver app Get Driven now also appears to have become a handy tool for recruiting at a young age. Entrepreneurs use it to have a student transport them in their own car, gain insight into their driver's training, and get in touch with potential new employees.

JOB INTERVIEW OF 500 KILOMETERS

"Our pool now consists of about 800 active student drivers who work for us several times a month. Through the many, long journeys, the students gain a familiar bond with the customer, which spontaneously resulted in job and internship offers," says Gunther Ghysels, CEO of Get Driven. Thus, an accumulation of rides sometimes becomes a job interview that lasts 500 kilometers.

"Our drivers drive up to 15 000 hours per month with CEOs, business executives, lawyers etcetera. These people lose a lot of time in the very busy traffic in our country. Thanks to our services, they can work safely in the car during the day, while also getting to know a large pool of young, driven professionals. Because you can already say one thing with certainty about our students: they want to work."

GET DRIVEN IN FULL EXPANSION

Get Driven not only launched a new app, but is also in full expansion behind the scenes. After a difficult period due to covid, Get Driven achieved nearly 200% month-on-month growth in recent months. In October, the platform generated more than €400,000 in revenue and nearly 15,000 driver hours per month. With the launch of the new app, they aim to be a first mover in the market. The app brings together a high-tech ecosystem, optimized for every OS, with all kinds of marketing features.
