Engineering & IT hiring

From open req
to engineers worth meeting.

Your AI recruiting team ranks engineers on public work, pitches the stack, books the slot, runs a code-editor and design round, and gives your seniors a shortlist with reports.

Engineering hiring needs the right people found, a pitch they answer, a technical round your seniors trust and a shortlist they can read. EmployLabs runs all four.

What engineering leads tell us

Hiring engineers is slow for your best people.

Seniors lose days to screens

Your strongest engineers spend the week on first calls instead of shipping.

Résumés list every stack

Everyone knows Kubernetes on paper. Few can explain what broke last time.

Take-homes pile up unread

Candidates submit the work, then it waits weeks for someone with time to review.

Who you hire

Every kind of engineer, one process.

Backend & platform

Services, APIs and the systems underneath them.

The flow for engineers

From open req to a scored coder.

Three agents, each doing the part your engineers should not be doing.

Hi Aarav, a backend role in Go on a team of eight. Hybrid, two days in the office.

Aarav

What is the salary band, and how many interview rounds?

Zia

The band is in the brief. One voice interview with a code round, then the hiring manager.

Code, design and a take-home

Candidates read and fix real code in an editor Naira sees, talk through system design by voice, and hand in a GitHub take-home. Code is never run. Tab switches and copy-paste are flagged.

FAQ

We have the answers

How it works, what it costs, and what your candidates see.

How does EmployLabs help hire engineers?

EmployLabs gives you an AI recruiting team: Meera ranks engineers using their profiles and public work and shows the reason for each score. Zia reaches them on six channels and answers their questions with real job facts. Naira interviews by voice with a code viewer and editor and a public GitHub repo viewer. Code is read and edited, never run.

How do you find and reach engineers?

Meera ranks engineers on public work: repos, talks and shipped projects. Zia pitches the stack, team and hybrid policy on six channels, answers salary questions and books the interview.

Can Naira judge system design?

Naira asks design questions by voice, follows up on the trade-offs the candidate raises and records the moments that earned each rating. Questions are built from your role, so a senior role gets senior depth.

How does the GitHub take-home work?

The candidate hands in a public GitHub repo (a ZIP works too). The work is graded Done, Partial or Not done, then Naira asks about it in a short voice follow-up. A take-home costs 100 credits.

Does the candidate’s code run?

No. Candidates read and edit code in an editor Naira sees and explain their changes by voice. Interviews are proctored: tab switches, copy-paste and leaving full screen are flagged, and the report carries an integrity score.

Do candidates see how they did?

Yes. Candidates get their own Naira report a few minutes after the interview, so they know right away whether they are a fit and do not wait for a call. You still get the full report with evidence quotes.

What if the candidate’s connection drops mid-problem?

The same session resumes where it stopped, within 24 hours.
