About The Client

Skillbee is a job platform designed to connect blue-collar and entry-level workers directly with employers, eliminating the need for recruiters and costly placement fees. Their mission is to create fairer job access while reducing fraud in the recruitment industry.


Before launching their web platform, Skillbee relied heavily on offline methods and third-party recruiters, making it difficult to scale efficiently and ensure trust between job seekers and employers.


Encapsulated partnered with Skillbee to design and develop the MVP of their web application — enabling job seekers to browse verified opportunities, employers to post jobs directly, and both sides to interact through a secure, transparent system built for scale.

Key Challenges Faced by Skillbee

Before building their MVP, Skillbee faced challenges in creating a fair, transparent, and scalable platform to connect workers with employers directly.

Recruiter Dependence

Job seekers often relied on middlemen, facing high fees and lack of transparency in the hiring process.

Fragmented Processes

Employers and candidates had no unified platform, making job discovery and applications slow and inconsistent.

Scalability Limitations

Existing offline and mobile-only approaches could not scale to handle millions of workers and global job opportunities.

Fraud & Trust Issues

Lack of verification mechanisms created risks of fraud, fake employers, and unreliable job postings.

Disconnected Systems

No integration with employer workflows or worker data meant limited visibility and poor operational efficiency.
