In 2019, AdView was rebranded as WhatJobs.[5][6] In November 2020, WhatJobs acquired the Spanish job search group Elcurriculum.com.[7] In September 2020, WhatJobs worked with Google for Jobs to start in seven African countries like Ghana, Nigeria, and Kenya.
During COVID-19 in April 2020, WhatJobs supported the British National Health Service (NHS). [8][9] The company also helps the Championship Football Team Reading FC.[10][11]
