The capital we raise will be used to grow and further develop our sales & marketing functions, as the business scales both in Europe and Internationally. As an established brand, we are looking to expand on our talented team. We are not looking for key hires, but to build departments internally to further improve our rapidly growing business.

Team

In 2013, Andy & Rich launched a recruitment business, and made two bets: 1) video would soon change the way we communicate with each other forever, and 2) remote working would gather pace and become the rule rather than the exception within ten years.

Both bets look likely to come in.

The CV is a blunt tool - out of date & unchanged in 100 years. The foundation of Hinterview is to provide a best-in-class video platform, optimised for recruitment & interviewing.

A category existed under the ‘video interviewing’ title, but in our opinion, an obsession with automation and disintermediation lead these companies to lose sight of a key truth – that good recruiting is about good story-telling, and that robots don't tell very good stories.

To flourish in the new normal, we knew that recruiters must focus on the part of the process that the robot can never do -- the human : human bit.

After unsuccessfully trying every product out there, out of sheer frustration they built their own prototype, and Hinterview was born.

2 years of intense R&D followed, and 3 years & 12 consecutive quarters of revenue growth later, we believe we are one of most exciting growth stories in European tech.

We believe our velocity will be supercharged by the changes to daily life enforced by COVID19, and as the worlds slowly returns to normal, its clear that some things will never be the same again.
