Company mission

HiPeople's mission is to fix mis-hiring for good on a global scale.

Our take

According to HiPeople, companies need a data-driven approach to hiring in order to minimise the risk of missing out on the right candidates. It offers a solution to this problem by providing companies with the insights they would normally only get after 6+ months of working together.

At the core of HiPeople's offering is in-depth, automated reference checks that support companies to eliminate recruitment biases and reduce the chance of mis-hiring. Moreover, their software reduces the time associated with evaluating a candidate's application by 240 minutes.

HiPeople already count Sumup, Celonis, Staffbase, Prisma and Graphcms among their clients. The company has raised considerable funding, the latest of which will be invested in accelerating its growth strategy.
