How much does a private hiring event in Paris 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 Paris quote.
How many engineers attend a private event in Paris?
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.

Which roles can you recruit for in Paris?
Our Paris talent pool is strongest in Full Stack Engineer, Backend Engineer and Engineering Manager roles, and the most common skills are Agile, JavaScript, HTML, SQL and Python. We also source engineering managers, data, security and QA candidates.
