Über uns

We started Lever in 2012 to tackle the most strategic challenge that companies face: how to grow their teams. Hypergrowth is the new norm for companies, with startups often doubling in size every year. At the same time, the war for top talent is more competitive, costly, and time-consuming than ever before.

And yet hiring process is fraught with frustrations for everyone involved – recruiters, interviewers, and candidates alike. To understand why, we went deep inside Silicon Valley’s fastest-growing companies for user research. We sat beside world-class recruiting teams, shadowed candidates throughout the entire process, and met with stakeholders across the company. We saw that hiring touches every single person in a company, but the clunky technology was often a barrier. The real work and decision making was happening in email, spreadsheets, or in-person.

The teams we met with knew that close collaboration is the key to great hiring. In designing Lever, we took inspiration from their creative workarounds to make hiring more engaging, transparent, and collaborative. We have an opportunity to solve the real, deeper problem that people were struggling with: how to scale their hiring process, while preserving their hiring culture.
