Does ScaleUp specialize in locating candidates from a specific sector/location/industry?

No. ScaleUp leverages subject matter experts to build domain-specific attributes across sectors. for example, let's say we want to find a doctor; the below screenshot captures the attributes that we built by indexing Doximity. Similarly, for every new domain, we start off by building the attribute library, which can then be used as a set of search filters.

ScaleUp is relevant to all hiring managers. We appeal to talent teams but also to hiring managers, who work with in-house recruiters to run qualified, screened candidates through their internal processes.

Finally, our data is global, so we can find candidates anywhere in the world.

When filtering candidates by industry, you may notice that some candidates from excluded industries still appear in your search results. This happens because ScaleUp's matching system considers multiple data points, including subcategories of industries. To ensure more precise filtering:

• Double-check the specific subcategories you want to exclude
• Verify that all relevant subcategories are marked for exclusion
• Contact ScaleUp support if the filtering does not work as expected

ScaleUp uses Crunchbase listings and definitions for industry categorizations. This means that the industry filters are based on how companies are categorized in the Crunchbase database, providing a standardized approach to industry classification.

Occasionally, you may notice duplicate entries for certain industry terms like 'private cloud' or 'cloud' in the filter options. This is a known technical issue that can occur in the search interface. If you encounter repeated filter options, please report this to our support team so they can investigate and resolve the duplicate listings.
