Musk buys job tool Laskie in first acquisition for Twitter

Elon Musk’s X Corp, the parent company of Twitter, has made its first acquisition: a tech talent recruiting service called Laskie, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The deal, which was part-equity and part-cash, recently closed, the person said, asking to remain anonymous discussing a private transaction. The company matches tech talent with potential employers, saying on its website that its tool can "confirm mutual interest, set clear expectations, and give visibility into the hiring process.”
