Products & services
Kanzhun’s core product is BOSS Zhipin, a mobile recruiting platform connecting job seekers and employers. Job seekers can receive job recommendations, communicate directly with employers, and submit resumes when both parties consent. Employers can post vacancies, receive candidate recommendations, chat with candidates, and receive resumes with mutual consent.[2][8]
The platform uses two-sided personalized matching that considers factors such as candidate and employer fit, career stage, preferences, and potential career opportunities. Its messaging supports text, voice, emojis, and images. Employers initially view limited candidate profiles; access to full resumes and contact details, and resume delivery, are subject to candidate consent. Job-seeker tools include free search and application functions, plus paid features such as a resume exposure booster, competitive candidate analysis, and AI interview training. The company also describes AI-assisted resume polishing, a free AI job-seeking assistant, and AI interview coaching.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15]
Kanzhun describes a recommendation and AI system that uses platform data, machine learning, and real-time feedback. Its hiring-focused Nanbeige large language model supports search and recommendations, AI-assisted communication, and interviews; the company also uses third-party models.[16][17][18][19][20]
In FY2025, online recruitment services to enterprise customers generated RMB8.2 billion of RMB8.3 billion in revenue; other services, mainly paid job-seeker value-added services, generated RMB74.8 million. The company reported that about 99% of revenue came from enterprise customers and does not provide revenue by individual product or tool.[21][22] [2][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]
Geographic presence
Kanzhun’s operations are primarily conducted in mainland China. Its headquarters are in Beijing, and it reports offices in 32 mainland cities; most directors and management, as well as the majority of employees, reside in Beijing. The company reported approximately 86,293 square meters of leased property in mainland China.[23][24][25]
Substantially all of Kanzhun’s revenue is derived from entities in the PRC, and its long-lived assets are substantially located there; the company does not provide a specific revenue-by-country or regional percentage in this disclosure.[26] Kanzhun is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and conducts its mainland operations through subsidiaries and a variable interest entity.[27] [23][24][25][26][27][28]
Business segments
Kanzhun Ltd reports one operating and reportable segment, focused on online recruitment services; it does not disclose separate reportable business segments. The segment serves job seekers with job recommendations, direct communication with employers and paid job-search tools, and provides enterprises with job postings, candidate recommendations, communication and recruitment-efficiency tools.[26][2]
The company also discloses revenue sources within this single segment, rather than as separate segments. For FY2025, enterprise online recruitment services generated RMB 8.2 billion and other services—mainly paid value-added services for job seekers—generated RMB 74.8 million, approximately 99% and 1% of total revenue, respectively, based on the reported rounded amounts.[21] [26][2][21]

Peng Zhao is identified as the founder and has served as chairman and CEO since the company’s inception.[29][30][31] The company launched its BOSS Zhipin app in July 2014.[32]
Kanzhun priced its U.S. initial public offering on June 11, 2021, offering 48 million ADSs at $19 each, and listed its Class A ordinary shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange Main Board on December 22, 2022, while its ADSs continued trading on Nasdaq.[33][34]
In July 2021, a cybersecurity review in China led to a suspension of new-user registration for BOSS Zhipin; registration resumed effective June 29, 2022.[35][36] [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][33][34]
