"Reliable sourcing platform with ever improving features"
4.5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

HackAJob provides well-vetted candidates that are actively seeking new roles. They ensure the candidates respond, attend interviews and have genuine profiles. This increases efficiency and conversion rates and speeds up your time to hire.

The support from the team is also unparalleled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

The UI of the platform can feel a little outdated and it could look better but this is a nitpick as it does the job functionally well.

It would also be useful to have more flexibility when sourcing such as searching directly through all candidates available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Hiring Tool & Fantastic Support"
5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

Everything! Its easy and the UI/UX is well thought out. In a tough market, Hackajob has been essential.

The candidate matching system makes a pleasant change for a tech recruiter. Instead doing a lot of active work to gain candidate engagement and build a strong candidate pipeline as you do with other platforms - with Hackajobs we just select suitable candidates from the matches and they select us back if we are the right fit for them so great engagement from the get-go, all done through the platform so it really takes the conscious effort out of it. Messages and interviews can be arranged easily on or off the platform making it easy to keep track of progress.

Jazmine is always on hand to support us with any queries and we always get a really speedy reply, both Jaz and Lachlan help us scope out future recruitment plans and work with our marketing focused team to plan and advise on upcoming campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

Nothing! Platform is continuing to grow and develop, team are really friendly and easy to collaborate - not sure what else they could do! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined access to great tech talent"
5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

Hackajob removes a lot of the heavy lifting in resourcing high-quality tech talent - it provides ready made access to candidates serious about considering their next opportunity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

It is currently limited in the geographies it supports, but given it was a UK start-up just 7 years ago, the rate at which it is addressing this (e.g. recent expansion to US) is encouraging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Timesaver!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

I've been using Hackajob for a year now and couldn't be more satisfied with the service!

It's a real timesaver when you have a busy schedule and multiple roles to fill, especially for Technical roles I find it very accurate and often gives you the right matches so you don't have to spend endless hours browsing profiles on databases, plus it's very quick to arrange or re-arrange interviews and the support service behind the platform is 5 star Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

I found it difficult to get advisory/consulting-type of profiles, I think that's something that could be improved by expanding the network of available candidates Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent source for Tech Talent!"
5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

Hackajob is an intuitive platform, easy to use and provides a clear approach to finding tech talent in an ever-evolving and challenging market. Although I have only been using the platform for a month, it's proven to be a tool that has provided strong candidates.

Aside from the platform being a solid sourcing tool, the customer success team has been exceptional; Natalia, in particular, has been a constant in the support we've received with open communication, regular catch-ups and listens to any product improvements we feel that may be needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

Nothing stand-out - product improvements are made constantly if we feel something needs to be changed. Integration to our ATS wasn't available, however, a partnership agreement has just been made and has now started. Most popular ATS's are available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Hackajob makes recruitment easier!"
5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

We recruit for a number of locations across the UK, and most of our roles require candidates to be eligible for security clearance so this has always been a challenge for us. With hackajob, there is a consistent pipeline for almost every role, which has resulted in me being able to deliver lots more profiles to key stakeholders in the business. Our CSM, Rianna is also excellent and is a pleasure to deal with on a day to day basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

There arent any, the platform makes my life much easier and the support we recieved from the team is always great. If there was once thing I would want is slightly more candidates in the south west however the market for cleared candidates there is limited anyway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great product and team"
4.5/5
What do you like best about hackajob?

It is a really important addition to our sourcing toolkit. The platform is easy to use with a consistent stream of well matched, relevant candidates.

The team behind the platform is great as well, with plenty of support to get you up to speed initially and then to help maximise the potential on the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about hackajob?

The location element has caused some small issues for us. Candidates will list almost all of the UK as an option for roles, when in reality you speak to them and they are unable to commute to hybrid in your location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
