hackajob Reviews & Product Details

Hackajob is one of the best tools we use for Tech recruitment. It makes sourcing candidates much slicker & easier. The candidates that it suggests us are typically bang on to what we are looking for, instead of having to scroll through 100's of candidates (like on other platforms) Hackajob gives us suitable candidates from the get go! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall the platform is great and I do not have any major issues with it. One of the only things is candidates salaries. I find they are much higher than what the candidate is looing for. This may be down to the candidates "trying their luck" however, the gap is to large at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Friendly UX making it intuitive for the user. Curated and engaged talent pools means the relevance and quality of applicants is strong, reducing the timeline for sourcing across a highly competitive market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No dislikes but look forward to the continued extension of their geographical reach - Poland next please. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Before I started using hackajob, we were heavily agency dependent for our tech hiring. Advertising didn't work and headhunting was tough as our target audience get approached so often, they often weren't interested in talking to us. Using hackajob has helped transform our tech hiring to the extent we barely use agencies at all anymore. I love being able to add a job and have profiles of relevant, vetted and qualified active job seekers immediately available to review. I can go from taking a vacancy brief from a hiring manager to having profiles ready for them to review on the same day. We always find relevant matches and always have people to interview quickly. The overall quality of candidate is good and we've been able to make plenty of offers. The hires we've made have already saved us way more in agency fees than we pay for the hackajob solution. The attentiveness of the customer success team is another plus point, they genuinely care about making sure we get the most out of the platform and are always great to deal with. Overall I would definitely recommend - I'd find it very hard to live without it now, and so would my tech hiring managers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No major complaints. It can sometimes be frustrating when you match with a great candidate then they aren't interested, but that's hardly hackajob's fault. There is a lot of competition for candidates, we rarely engage with people who aren't in several other processes, but that's up to us to make sure we present a compelling offer. Finally some of the UX around interview organisation can be a bit clunky and it's not integrated with my ATS, but the Product team are really interested in listening to these concerns and acting on them to drive future system improvements. There are no negatives that would make me even consider stopping using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact you get to speak with engaged candidates everytime is amazing. Also the team behind the scenes cant do enough to help get the most out of the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes you do get candidates that sometimes are looking for a higher salary than what you have to offer but this is a very rare occurrence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about Hackajob is the quality of candidates and the UX in place to actually assess that candidate. It's clear and concise, and really easy to progress people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only slight issue I have is the location of some of the candidates. Some of our roles aren't remote, and the platform tends to be quite heavily weighted to London. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only engaged, available candidates who're actively looking for work - no more trawling other platforms endlessly reaching out with minimal response rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I'd change is the interviewing options as we cant select Teams from the dropdown option - only telephone / face2face, however Hackajob have provided a workaround for this :-) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find hackajob so useful in reaching out to relevant candidates for my roles. Easy to navigate through profiles and decide if you would like to continue to discuss roles with candidates. It's nice and easy to schedule times for interviews and I love the fact I get regular reminders in the morning of interviews I have scheduled and that they automatically go into my calendar along with a link to their CV. This saves me time having to go back into the portal separately. I find the quality of candidates very good and have had success off the back of hackajob. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't come across any downsides of using hackajob. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, hackajob is an excellent tool for us. It provides access to pre-screened tech talent, helping save time and money and creating a more efficient hiring process. By using hackajob, it allows us to cut through the noise and focus on finding incredible talent. Hackajob has candidates for most of our disciplines and they often identify candidates that we do not see on other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We often look for a niche skillset, and we have had to calibrate our requirements carefully. Thankfully, the account team have been fantastic at providing us with the support we've needed to ensure we use the platform in the best way possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
