The beta site launch occurred on March 16, 2005 and later that year it raised a Series B round of $3M from Guy Kawasaki, Dave McClure, Ron Conway, Garage Technology Ventures, and others. In April 2006, the company received US$13.5 million in series C funding from News Corp.'s Fox Interactive Media division and Foundation Capital. The company partnered with MySpace Careers in June 2006 to power the website. Simply Hired partnered with The Washington Post in March 2009 to provide job listings on the newspaper's website.
