We started out as a community project...

Kibbi was founded by Hong Phuc Nguyen, who migrated to Canada in 2020 and struggled working through the labyrinth of barriers to finding work. Realizing the challenges that newcomers in particular have with finding jobs, she created an app with a team of fellow immigrants, hoping to be part of the solution.

With a simple belief that as long as one has the willingness to work hard, one should be able to find a job. The concept of Kibbi is about lowering barriers to work for career starters, by making the job market more inclusive and accessible.

Kibbi is on a mission to redefine the job search experience for entry-level job seekers, many of whom are newcomers and young people. To do so would help businesses improve the success rate of their “Help Wanted” listings by connecting them with the underemployed communities and nearby job seekers.
