Hey everyone 👋🏻, this is Jaclyn, I am the co-founder and CEO of Hatchways.
I'm incredibly proud of the work my team has done over the last few years (especially through hyper-turbulent tech hiring times!) Today, I’m excited to share a brand new version of Hatchways: Hatchways 2.0.
We started our journey years back when were part of Y Combinator. Our concept then was internships as a replacement for interviews. We’ve always been passionate about helping people from all walks of life land a job based on their skills, regardless of school, connections, or interviewing abilities.
Over time, we realized the challenge in solving this problem lies in the fact that companies lack incentives to improve their processes unless it saves them money or time. Hatchways 2.0 addresses this by streamlining the interview process for companies, thus saving them time while helping them identify and hire top talent. Today’s launch brings together all of our years of learnings into one beautifully designed self-serve platform.
With Hatchways 2.0, companies can:
✨ Access our platform for free for up to 10 invites per month!
🧰 Select and modify from existing, real-world GitHub tasks or customize your own to fit specific requirements
🦄 Seamlessly add automation using our unique .hatchways.gitignore files and GitHub Actions software
🤖 Try our ChatGPT-enhanced assessment, simulating a pair programming interview through interactive coding tasks
📈 Send, track, and receive assessments. Monitor candidates' progress on a Kanban board
🔗 Connect with your Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby ATS system
💰💰 Get a bespoke assessment made for your specific use case. Up until September 1st, Product Hunt members can receive 50% off a bespoke assessment by mentioning PH launch to Hatchways.

@david_sipos Thanks David! It's definitely important to us that we keep both the candidate experience and the employer experience in mind when continuing to improve the platform! If you have any real-life tasks that you'd like to see in our pre-built catalogue, let me know!
Aight, imma give this one my upvote. the product is ambitious per se and we have to make some changes especially in making it AI proof, but the soon to be engineers of the era have been through online classes. This is not to say that online classes do suck or smth like that, this is mere verification that they really do have what it takes to be an engineer since engineers build shelters, one of human's necessities
@theiblb This is absolutely one of our drivers in making this product! We've always been excited about the world where self-studiers and self-taught programmers could land opportunities just as effectively as traditionally educated folks. Thanks for your support!
Congrats on the launch team! We've used Hatchways successfully for hires on our team - the mix of real exercises with actionable feedback resonated deeply with our candidates, and ultimately fit exactly into our hiring process. Keep up the amazing work!
