Hireboard FAQs
What is Hireboard and how does it work?

Hireboard is a platform that connects tech companies with pre-vetted, top-tier engineers from around the world. For engineers, it provides an opportunity to showcase their skills through rigorous assessments and get hired by leading tech companies while earning competitive USD compensation. For recruiters, Hireboard simplifies the hiring process by offering access to a curated pool of highly qualified candidates. Provide your job description and our AI identifies the best matches, also our talent team manually reviews every candidate's assessments, profiles, and quality before they are presented to you. You can review detailed profiles including test scores, coding assignments, and video interviews, then make offers directly through the platform with secure, legally binding contracts.
How do engineers get pre-vetted on Hireboard?

Engineers undergo a comprehensive three-step vetting process. First, they complete a custom technical test (MCQ format) in their chosen technology to demonstrate their expertise. Second, they complete a real-world coding assignment where they solve problems and provide well-documented code within a given timeframe, submitting their work via GitHub. Finally, they complete a technical and personality video interview to showcase their communication skills and cultural fit. This rigorous process ensures that only the top 3% of applicants are accepted, and all assessment results are publicly viewable on candidate profiles for recruiters to review.
What kind of support does Hireboard offer to recruiters?

Hireboard provides comprehensive support throughout the entire hiring process. Our platform handles legal complexities like work permits, payroll, and employment regulations, ensuring compliance with global standards. We offer customizable offer templates for compensation and employment details, secure e-signature processes for contracts, and expertise in global talent and IP law. The platform integrates with your project management tools for seamless onboarding. AI shortlists candidates from your job description, and our talent team manually reviews assessments, profiles, and quality before recommendations reach you. We eliminate the need for traditional job postings and resume filtering, saving you significant time and money.
How secure is the contract and payment process on Hireboard?

Hireboard uses industry-leading security measures to protect all contract and payment information. After a candidate accepts an offer, we provide a secure, legally binding contract process with a straightforward e-signature system integrated directly into the platform. Our team has expertise in global talent and IP law, ensuring contracts are compliant with international standards regardless of where your hire is located. We handle automated payroll ensuring timely payments, and manage all legal complexities including work permits and employment regulations. The entire process is tracked, managed, and stored securely within the platform, providing full transparency and protection for both parties.
Can engineers retake assessments if they are not satisfied with scores?

Yes, engineers have the opportunity to retake assessments if they wish to improve their scores. After completing an initial assessment, engineers can retake the test after a designated waiting period. This allows them time to study, practice, and better prepare for their next attempt. We encourage engineers to review study materials related to their chosen technology and ensure they allocate uninterrupted time with a stable internet connection before retaking any assessment. This approach ensures that candidates can showcase their best abilities and continuously improve their profiles.
Why use Hireboard over traditional hiring?

Hireboard offers significant advantages over traditional hiring methods. You can hire elite, pre-vetted engineers without the hassle of resume filtering and job postings, saving weeks or even months in the hiring process. Cost-wise, you'll access global talent at approximately half the cost of local hires, with platform fees far below the standard 20% recruiter rates. Our streamlined process means you skip multiple rounds of technical screening—all candidates have already passed rigorous assessments. AI identifies your best matches, and our talent team reviews every profile before presentation—so you get human-verified recommendations, not unchecked algorithm picks. Detailed profiles include test scores and video interviews, with effortless offer management through customizable templates. Plus, we handle all legal compliance, payroll, and onboarding, so you can focus on building your team rather than managing administrative complexities.
Does Hireboard use AI to select candidates?

AI only helps shortlist developers based on your job description. It does not replace human judgment. Our talent team manually reviews assessments, profiles, and quality standards before any candidate is presented to recruiters. You get the speed of AI-assisted matching with the accountability of human oversight.
What is Hireboard's delivery guarantee?

Every hire is backed by the same global delivery standards. Our operations team handles disputes and quality issues with defined response timelines — not a generic support queue. If a developer is not the right fit, you can request a free replacement. Contracts, payroll, and compliance apply wherever you hire, so protections and replacements hold weight in any time zone — without relying on a single country or local presence.
