Private hiring events in Singapore: FAQ
How much does a private hiring event in Singapore 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 Singapore quote.
How many engineers attend a private event in Singapore?
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.
Where are private events held in Singapore?
Most clients host at their Singapore office, which lets candidates meet the team where they would work. If you do not have space, we arrange a venue in Singapore. Virtual private events are also available for distributed teams.
Which roles can you recruit for in Singapore?
Our Singapore 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.
Is HackerX a recruiting agency?
No. HackerX runs hiring events and a developer community of 180,000+ engineers. You pay a flat event fee, hire candidates directly, and never pay a placement fee.
