EarlyJobs AI also launched its franchise network in June 2025 and has already expanded to 22 franchise locations across the country.
Solving unmet hiring challenges for women, colleges, students, and employers

Millions of women remain outside the workforce due to mobility challenges, childcare responsibilities, or lack of flexible work options. Colleges, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, struggle to establish structured placement systems. At the same time, companies face talent shortages and delays in sourcing job-ready candidates.
