Quess Corp, India’s largest staffing and workforce solutions provider, has taken a groundbreaking step by joining the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) as an Anchor Network Participant. This collaboration aims to transform the digital employment landscape in India, particularly for blue and grey-collar workers. The integration of Quess’s platform, Hamara Jobs, with ONDC will significantly enhance job accessibility and bridge gaps in the fragmented job market.
Addressing Employment Challenges

By leveraging ONDC’s open network, Quess Corp aims to democratize access to employment opportunities, ensuring that verified jobs reach candidates efficiently. This move aligns with Quess’s vision of using technology as an equalizer to simplify the employment journey.
