Malaysia’s strategic location and web of free-trade agreements continue to draw global capital. In 2024 alone the manufacturing sector secured RM 120.5 billion in approved investments, projected to create almost 88,000 new jobs. As the digital economy accelerates and competition for talent intensifies, Malaysian employers and job-seekers face unprecedented opportunities—and bottlenecks. Manufacturing, construction and services are expanding rapidly, driving surging demand for blue-collar labor. Yet traditional hiring channels—fragmented, slow and opaque—have become a critical brake on the nation’s economic upgrade.
JOBPD: Built to Solve Blue-Collar Hiring Pain-Points
JOBPD is a Malaysia-focused blue-collar recruitment platform that uses digital, intelligent and hyper-local services to give workers and companies a revolutionary hiring experience. We believe every hard-working person deserves a better job match, and every employer should find the right talent—faster.
A Massive, Undigitized Opportunity
We zeroed-in on blue-collar for four hard reasons:
- Structural demand
Services + manufacturing = 82.6 % of national GDP and the biggest absorbers of blue-collar labor.
Minimum wage has risen to RM 1,700/month; 2024 average wages hit RM 3,045/month, pushing companies to hunt for “hiring efficiency”.
- High churn
Blue-collar turnover is steep; repeat hiring costs are crushing; traditional channels can’t keep pace.
- Channel failure
Jobs are scattered across brokers, Facebook groups and WhatsApp—no verification, no transparency.
“Apply-and-ghost” is the norm; mobile usage among workers exceeds 80 %, yet no one has built a dead-simple, mobile-first platform for them.
Conclusion: Malaysia needs a single, mobile solution that can consolidate scattered traffic and lift communication efficiency by 10×.
JOBPD’s Edge: Technology That Re-invents Hiring
We weaponize our team’s DNA in recruiting, HR, Internet products and data science to create defensible advantages:
- Efficiency & trust, re-defined
AI matching engine weighs job, location, salary and skills for precision, slashing employer screening time.
BOSS-Zhipin-style instant chat + local social-media push = sub-48-hour hiring cycles.
UI in English, Chinese and Bahasa Melayu, built for Malaysia’s multicultural workforce.
- A fair, transparent career ecosystem
Mandatory salary & benefits disclosure ends information asymmetry.
Beyond job ads: head-hunting and labor-outsourcing cover everything from general workers to skilled trades.
Up-skilling hub: training partnerships turn the platform into a career-growth and re-employment engine.
Traction: Digitization at Speed

20,000+ registered job-seekers, growing 35 % month-on-month.
5,000+ active jobs daily; median time-to-hire < 48 h.
