How much does a private hiring event in Dublin cost?
Private events are priced as a flat event fee, scoped to your roles, headcount and venue, and there is no placement fee on the engineers you hire. HackerX clients typically see a cost per hire under $500, compared with $4,000 to $5,000 through agencies. Send your roles through the form on this page for a Dublin quote.
How many engineers attend a private event in Dublin?
We size the room to your hiring plan. Public HackerX events target 80 to 100 developer registrations. At a private event every invitee has been screened for your roles, so a smaller room still produces hires.

Most clients host at their Dublin office, which lets candidates meet the team where they would work. If you do not have space, we arrange a venue in Dublin. Virtual private events are also available for distributed teams.
Which roles can you recruit for in Dublin?
Our Dublin talent pool is strongest in Full Stack Engineer, Backend Engineer and Engineering Manager roles, and the most common skills are Agile, SQL, JavaScript, HTML and Java. We also source engineering managers, data, security and QA candidates.
