Your own recruiting event, built around your roles
Private events are our most effective offering for employers — an invite-only event built around your open roles, filling the room with engineers curated just for you. Some companies have made as many as 13 hires from a single event.
How a private event works
You tell us who you want to hire. We handle everything else — from sourcing to logistics.
We scope your hiring goals
Roles, stack, seniority, location, headcount. We build the event's candidate profile around exactly who you need.
We source & screen the room
Our team hand-picks and vets attendees from the HackerX community of 140,000+ engineers — every one relevant to your roles.
We run the whole event
Venue, catering, promotion, format, and on-the-night logistics. Your team just shows up and meets great engineers.
You make offers, fast
Rapid-interview format gets your team in front of dozens of qualified candidates in one evening — then hire, with no placement fee.
Why companies choose private
All the reach of a HackerX event — entirely focused on you.
100% of the attention
No other companies competing for candidates. Every engineer in the room is there to meet your team.
Custom-curated talent
Attendees sourced and screened specifically for your roles, not a general open call.
No placement fees
A flat event fee — we never take a commission on the engineers you hire.
Anywhere you hire
Run a private event in any of our 175+ cities, or virtually for distributed teams.

Case study
Real results from a single HackerX private event.
13 hires. One evening.
Veritas held a single HackerX private event and walked away with 13 new engineers. Targeted sourcing, precision invitations, and a casual in-office format converted attendees faster than any previous recruiting effort — at a fraction of agency cost.
