The coronavirus pandemic triggered a surge in remote work. Companies are now more open to hiring remote talents. Talenteum wants to facilitate the process by allowing access to a remote African talent pool. 

Talenteum is a digital solution developed by Mauritian organizational development firm Talenteum Group. The solution allows companies to hire their workforce from a remote African talent pool. It also allows African professionals to join its talent pool to seek employment. 

The platform boasts an active community of African professionals, from accountants to project managers. By subscribing to its monthly or yearly membership, companies can access that pool and launch recruitments. To launch those processes, companies have to fill out dedicated forms giving relevant details on the skills desired. Once those steps are completed, Talenteum takes over by posting relevant job ads, gathering resumes, and carrying out initial interviews. 

In 2019, Talenteum made it to MyAfricanStartup.com's annual list of the 100 African startups worthy of investment. The following year, it was one of the finalists of the  World Summit for Migration and Development, enabling its founders to present the solution during the  Migration Challenge led by the International Organisation of Employers (IOE) and Seedstars.
