Salesforce buys Moonhub, a startup building AI tools for hiring.

The hiring process has never been particularly straightforward: the responsibility of adding the correct professional within a functioning team, or a company in need of expanding its horizons, is considerable, and places those in this role in somewhat awkward positions.

Consequently, following this rapid spread of artificial intelligence, the next step has been to turn to the technology in question to simplify the process. General opinion is rightly conflicted: relying on such an empathetic, precise choice on a tool devoid of humanity may not be the most suitable solution. Nevertheless, with the passage of time, several start-ups dedicated to this topic have sprung up: among them Moonhub.

Recently, the Moonhub team announced that part of the group would be moving to Salesforce, one of the first investors in the project. What appeared to be a takeover of the start-up later turned out to be the consequence of the latter's closure.
