HiredHippo is a tech company in the HR space, combining AI algorithms with human insights to connect tech companies with top talent. Its clients include TouchBistro, League, and Clearco.
Hipo is focused exclusively on revolutionizing the hiring process by providing access to a curated pool of top talent. Targeting niche and hard-to-fill positions, the company sets itself apart by streamlining the hiring experience for employers looking to source, screen, recruit, and hire high-potential candidates quickly and efficiently. Operating primarily in the U.S. and Canada, Hipo caters to a diverse range of companies, from startups to medium-sized enterprises, across various sectors.
The unique value proposition of Hipo lies in its pre-vetted candidate pool comprising only the top 10% of applicants. This ensures that companies receive candidates who have already been pre-filtered for skills and alignment with the organization's mission, vision, and values. This level of screening reduces the noise associated with traditional hiring platforms where any candidate can apply, therefore increasing the efficiency and quality of the match between candidate and job.
Hipo’s strategic advantage stems from several factors:
Exclusivity and Vetting Process: Unlike traditional job boards, Hipo's exclusivity means that only candidates who specifically match job criteria are allowed to apply. Each candidate has been pre-vetted for core skills and fit with company culture, significantly reducing mismatches.
Reduced Hiring Effort: The platform eliminates much of the manual work associated with recruiting, such as sourcing, screening, and initial vetting, allowing employers to focus on conducting interviews and making the final hiring decision.
Expert, Human-Guided Support: Offering expert support throughout the hiring process, Hipo goes beyond automated systems by providing personalized assistance, akin to recruitment agencies but with the focus and speed of a tech platform.
Membership-Based Pricing: With a single annual membership fee, employers enjoy unlimited hires, helping them manage their recruitment budgets more predictably compared to traditional agency models that charge per hire.
To deliver on this value proposition, Hipo leverages a membership model where companies gain access to a continuous pool of highly vetted and recommended talent. This model allows employers to bypass the traditional recruitment process entirely, instead focusing on matching candidates to the right roles quickly and efficiently—a process the company claims can result in hires within as little as one week.
Additionally, Hipo maintains a proactive outreach strategy, continually sourcing new talent to ensure that its database remains dynamic and filled with candidates who are actively interested in new opportunities. Employers also receive exclusive insights and data-driven recommendations to further aid in making informed hiring decisions.
For candidates, Hipo provides a streamlined application process and the opportunity to be seen by multiple potential employers with a single profile, avoiding the repetitive and time-consuming tasks traditionally associated with job hunting.
Hipo positions itself not just as a recruiting platform but as a strategic partner in building high-performing teams, aiming to align each hire with a company's broader business objectives.
