We make engineering interviewing look more like real work.
Easily customize GitHub-based technical assessments, where candidates can complete tasks like reviewing code, submitting a pull request, or improving a system’s design. Hatchways helps you build a state-of-the-art practical interview process that is customized to your role while saving you engineering interview load along the way.
Hatchways provides a platform to run real-world, customizable technical interviews using real tasks and git-based workflows. It aims to improve candidate experience and hiring signals by mirroring real work scenarios and integrating with ATS systems.
The product enables assembling, sending, and tracking assessments via git repositories, with templates or custom uploads. It supports code challenges in any language, tasks like bug fixes and code reviews, written or video responses, automated grading and cloud deployments of submissions, and optional human code reviews. It integrates with ATS (Lever, Greenhouse, Ashby) for automated updates, and offers a range of pricing tiers including free and paid plans with features like onboarding, customization, and analytics. Users can scale invitations and assessments across teams without per-seat pricing, and can add add-ons such as custom assessments, automation, and language support.
