Recruitee is a business producing or selling computer "software as a service". The software functions as an applicant tracking system for handling applications for jobs. It includes a careers site editing system for employer branding, a plugin for sourcing (personnel) (otherwise called recruitment), employment website integration, email and calendar synchronization. Within 4 months of its public launch in August 2015, Recruitee attracted over 1000 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and recruiting agencies worldwide.

History

[edit]

In 2011, Perry Oostdam met Pawel Smoczyk on Founder2be, a social network that helps aspiring entrepreneurs find their co-founder. Working remotely from the Netherlands and Poland, they put together their first product - a mobile activation game called GeoRun.[1]

In 2014, Oostdam and Smoczyk changed the business and built Recruitee out of their own frustration with the hassles of hiring.[2] They believe hiring should be a team effort, not only for founders and HR alone.[3][4]

After its launch, Recruitee quickly became popular and got an undisclosed amount of seed funding on September 1, 2015. Its board members include Dutch entrepreneurs Robert Pijselman and Luc Brandts.[5]

In November 2015, Recruitee announced a partnership with Rockstart, a company in Amsterdam.[6] Recruitee set up a Talent Pool that let applicants apply to job openings from all startup businesses that are and were affiliated with Rockstart.

Recruitee's current clients include Usabilla, and Vlisco.[7]

Features

[edit]

Users can customize the hiring pipeline for each job opening. Users can drag and drop candidates' profiles to different stages as they move along the hiring process.[8]
