Ethosia Human Resources

Recruitment for Israel's high-tech and biotech sectors

Ethosia is an Israeli recruitment firm that places people in technology and biotech jobs. The company says it has concentrated on matching employment opportunities with people's professional ambitions for close to two decades, and that its work now runs alongside a digital job platform.

A hybrid hiring model

The firm's model pairs senior recruitment consultants with a platform built on large data sets and artificial intelligence. A candidate completes a short intake so the firm can learn the person's profile, and an algorithm then suggests roles drawn from across the market. Candidates can see openings early and follow each stage of a hiring process online, and the company states that it aims for a clear and transparent process from first contact to offer.

Salary data and pay comparisons

Users can check what they might earn in a salary calculator. The company also publishes a compensation report that compares pay and benefits by role. It says its figures are drawn from tens of thousands of employers and job seekers and are updated in near real time.

Market research on women in Israeli high-tech

The firm's market commentary includes an analysis of women in the sector. It cites an Israel Innovation Authority report that found women make up roughly a third of employees in Israeli high-tech, with their share falling as seniority rises. Ethosia's own analysis finds that women still earn noticeably less than men in the same jobs, although the number of women studying engineering has grown steadily. The firm suggests that wider change could follow as more women enter engineering courses and as more organisations encourage them to join the industry.

Trends in the 2025 market

The company's annual report for 2025 describes a year of large deals and exits in Israeli technology that sat alongside a weakening local job market. It argues that the employment growth of Israeli companies is increasingly happening outside Israel. Its commentary also covers the wider financial backdrop, including interest rate rises, inflation and layoffs at large firms that spill over to smaller companies.

Outlook for artificial intelligence

A separate piece looks at the four areas it expects to be most affected by artificial intelligence over the next decade: medicine, autonomous transport, deepfakes and the regulation of the technology. The company presents these as the areas to watch for employers and workers in its sector.
