What GitHired is
GitHired is a web recruiting service for employers hiring developers and developers seeking startup opportunities. Employers can turn a job description into a workflow that finds developers, ranks them, and books meetings. Candidate evaluation considers code complexity, project depth, and shipping capabilities. The service says its GitHub and LinkedIn scraper surfaces developers across open source, while the Analyze page compares up to 10 GitHub profiles and can optionally use a LinkedIn URL. Developers connect GitHub and LinkedIn so GitHired can evaluate public and private work. Its GitScore reflects code complexity, project depth, experience, and shipping velocity. The homepage says more than 10,000 applicants have provided secure access to private projects. Pricing is on request. The privacy policy describes security safeguards and SSL transmission for sensitive payment information, while noting that absolute security cannot be guaranteed. It says conversation and personal data may be stored for up to six years, or up to 60 days after account deletion. Users can request access, correction, or deletion of personal information, and GitHired says it does not sell personal information.
