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]
Recognition
[edit]- In February 2016, Inc. (magazine) named Recruitee as one of the five apps that boost recruiting and retention for companies of any size.[9]
- In August 2016, Entrepreneur (magazine) mentions Recruitee as a tool to strengthen employer branding.[10]
