About SkillConnect

SkillConnect is a groundbreaking recruitment platform dedicated to bridging the gap between skilled yet illiterate workers and employers actively seeking reliable, talented individuals. At SkillConnect, we firmly believe that literacy should never be a barrier to gainful employment or economic participation. Our mission is to empower a diverse range of skilled workers—including carpenters, farmers, drivers, artisans, and many more—by providing a seamless, user-friendly platform where they can effectively showcase their expertise and connect directly with potential employers.

Recognizing the unique challenges faced by individuals who may be unfamiliar with digital technology, SkillConnect offers both Android and web-based applications designed with simplicity and accessibility at their core. To further enhance reach and support, we collaborate with local help centers such as huduma centres across the country, ensuring that even those with minimal technological experience can easily navigate the platform. This multi-channel approach guarantees widespread accessibility and inclusivity, breaking down digital and educational barriers.

For employers, SkillConnect provides an efficient, transparent, and comprehensive hiring experience. They can search and filter candidates based on specific skills, work experience, geographical location, and other relevant criteria, enabling faster and more accurate recruitment decisions. Our platform not only streamlines the hiring process but also fosters trust and accountability by promoting clear communication and verifiable skills among all parties involved.

SkillConnect is committed to promoting social equity by transforming the way skilled labor markets operate across Kenya. By unlocking new opportunities for millions of capable workers, we aim to stimulate economic empowerment, reduce unemployment, and strengthen communities. Our platform is more than just a recruitment tool—it is a catalyst for meaningful change, offering dignity, respect, and financial independence to those who have traditionally been overlooked by conventional job markets.
