PAIRIN Announced as Start-Up Business of the Year Finalist

DENVER, COLORADO, March 7, 2017 (Newswire.com) - The 2017 Business Awards finalists were announced last week, and PAIRIN is among the top contenders for Start-Up Business of the Year. This award recognizes new, emerging and fast-growing businesses that are advancing fresh ideas to meet a marketplace need and are infusing the spirit of entrepreneurism in all they do.

PAIRIN is a Denver-based business that is making education more relevant and hiring more equitable by taking extremely accurate, complicated science and making it friendly and accessible for any professional or student to use. PAIRIN’s system focuses on measuring the soft skills and mindsets that make up 75% of what is needed for long term job success. And, while other companies focus on one segment of the talent pipeline, PAIRIN’s unique approach targets the breadth of workforce development - from students and career seekers to the businesses doing the hiring - making this vast depth of knowledge the most expansive and impactful in existence.

"PAIRIN is honored to be a Start-up of the Year finalist. The support we have received from the Denver community has truly helped propel us in our start-up phase, and we look forward to many more years of partnership as we grow."
