Earlybird backs Romanian recruitment firm Tjobs

The fresh funding will boost Tjobs's European expansion as the European Union liberalises its labour mobility laws. The company is thought to have raised €500,000 from angel investors in 2011.

The VC held a first close on the Earlybird Digital East Fund in January 2014 on $110m. The vehicle, which has a $130m target, backs SMEs in internet, enterprise technology, technology-enabled service companies based in CEE and Turkey.

Earlybird typically invests €200,000-15m per transaction.
