Hey everyone 👋🏻, this is Jaclyn, I am the co-founder and CEO of Hatchways.
I'm incredibly proud of the work my team has done over the last few years (especially through hyper-turbulent tech hiring times!) Today, I’m excited to share a brand new version of Hatchways: Hatchways 2.0.
We started our journey years back when were part of Y Combinator. Our concept then was internships as a replacement for interviews. We’ve always been passionate about helping people from all walks of life land a job based on their skills, regardless of school, connections, or interviewing abilities.
Over time, we realized the challenge in solving this problem lies in the fact that companies lack incentives to improve their processes unless it saves them money or time. Hatchways 2.0 addresses this by streamlining the interview process for companies, thus saving them time while helping them identify and hire top talent. Today’s launch brings together all of our years of learnings into one beautifully designed self-serve platform.
With Hatchways 2.0, companies can:
✨ Access our platform for free for up to 10 invites per month!
🧰 Select and modify from existing, real-world GitHub tasks or customize your own to fit specific requirements
🦄 Seamlessly add automation using our unique .hatchways.gitignore files and GitHub Actions software
🤖 Try our ChatGPT-enhanced assessment, simulating a pair programming interview through interactive coding tasks
📈 Send, track, and receive assessments. Monitor candidates' progress on a Kanban board
🔗 Connect with your Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby ATS system
💰💰 Get a bespoke assessment made for your specific use case. Up until September 1st, Product Hunt members can receive 50% off a bespoke assessment by mentioning PH launch to Hatchways.
