hackajob Reviews & Product Details

We've been using Hackajob for Tech hiring at Flutter for the last 3 years or so.

What we love:

Great user interface, easy candidate communication and scheduling functions.

Basic pre qualification carried out on all candidates, actively growing database of engaged Talent.

Mostly relevant profile matches to role skillsets.

Saves our TA team time vs Linkedin Recruiter - talent are already engaged, we know salary expectations and visa requirements.

Ongoing responsive account management and support from the HJ team who also provide useful up to date market insight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What could improve:

Not so much as an issue recently but we have previously flagged candidate quality on a couple of occasions technical skills mismatch in pipelines, English language proficiency level was also flagged.

Important to note this feedback was acted upon and the vast majority of candidates have been great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I recruit across the Tech, Product & Data space and was introduced to Hackajob a few years ago when looking to hire across these areas within an ambitious scale-up. Hackajob was a game changer in allowing us to access top-tier talent across the the tech space. The Hackajob platform ensures that candidates on the platform are active and pre-vetted which was extremely useful when looking to hire quickly at volume as it saved a lot of time within the hiring process. The platform itself also gave us access to a real diverse talent pool where we were able to improve our DE&I statistics with exceptional talent from diverse and under-represented backgrounds.

One thing that sets Hackajob apart from similar platforms is their customer success team and how seamless the platform integrates with current systems & processes. The onboarding experience was seamless integrating with our ATS and other platforms reducing time spent on admin tasks. The customer success team were top drawer and Taylor our account manager couldn't have been better. From initial onboarding and showcasing the platform to showcasing platform updates to regular stand ups ensuring candidates are moving along the process to give us the best chance hiring successfully she was great. She was always on hand to help and it felt as though we had an additional resource at our disposal. Made us feel very valued and also ensured we were really making the most of the platform.

Hackajob has been great for helping us to scale key areas of the business within very competitive markets and candidate pools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No real dislikes to the platform, it is extremely user-friendly and the customer success team are amazing and really take it to the next level as a useful recruitment tool.

We were quite fortunate to be able to hire remotely within the UK as well as within popular tech stacks albeit the top 5% of the market. As the platform grows so will the candidate pools in smaller locations as well as in more niche skillsets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We managed to get high quality candidates for the delivery manager role compared to other channels, which saved time. Integration with Workable is great. Nicky and Tom supported us through the initial trial and they were fantastic. Extremely responsive, and supportive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Hackajob team are amazing- they really do feel like an extension of your internal Talent Team who are rooting for your success. It is very useful that you can see how long candidates have been on the market for as knowing you have caught them withint 1 or 2 days is great. The platform is so user friendly and the team are always on hand to support with tweaking role set up etc to increase your matches. We also use the technical testing function which has had some great feedback from our Dev Team.

Some more niche roles do not have the same size talent pool

Nothing else apart from that Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hackajob helps me as a Recruiter find qualified candidates, who are already pre screened for difficult tech roles. It is an added resourse that is a tremendous help. All of the communication with our Hackajob partners helps make this parternship that much better. We all have one goal and are always on the same page. Not to mention, the platform itself is so easy to use and navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dont see any downsides. It gives you all of the info for each candidate that you need to make an informed decision before reaching out to the candidate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
