Hire42

Structured hiring for engineering teams

Stop hiring on vibes.

Hire42 turns interviews into structured verdicts — scorecards per stage, fair rotation across interviewers, and a record of every decision. An ATS built for engineering teams of 10–500.

Built around the decision, not the paperwork

Every interview ends in a verdict

Define what to rate per stage. Interviewers score your criteria from 1–4 and commit to a verdict — no more 'seemed nice' lost in a Slack thread.

Interviews spread across the team

Tag who can run each interview type. Hire42 rotates assignments automatically and gives everyone a single inbox of pending reviews — so your two senior engineers stop carrying every loop.

Know why you hired — or passed

Every move, score, and note is logged with who and when. Reconstruct any candidate's story months later — for your team or your auditors.

How it works

  1. 1

    Define the bar

    Create a pipeline with the stages your team actually uses, and set what to evaluate at each one. Ask what matters, at the stage where it matters.

  2. 2

    Interviews assign themselves

    Invite teammates and tag what each person can evaluate. As candidates advance, Hire42 rotates assignments and queues them in each interviewer's inbox.

  3. 3

    Decide with the receipts

    Verdicts, scores, and notes stay attached to the candidate. Advance, reject, or hire knowing exactly why — every decision traceable to a person and a time.

Why not a spreadsheet — or an enterprise suite?

A spreadsheet tracks candidates, but it doesn't chase feedback, rotate interviewers, or remember why you said no. Enterprise suites do — for a price and a rollout a 50-person team doesn't have. Hire42 sits in the middle on purpose.
