Hackajob is an online platform that allows employers to fast-track their recruitment process by hiring engineers who have proven their ability in a specific domain. Candidates go through Hackajob's in-depth technical assessment process, which highlights their true ability, allowing you to fill open roles fast.

You can receive new and verified candidates daily, generated by our machine-learning-based matching engine, and simply invite your favorites to interview. You also have access to our on-demand, validated talent pool of people that are actively or passively looking for a new role. Finally, you can use Hackajob's advanced assessment tool as a testing platform to screen candidates that you find from other sources.
