Our Story
QuietHire was born from frustration with the tech industry's broken job market. After witnessing countless talented professionals get lost in the noise of automated applicant tracking systems, ghosted by recruiters, and laid off despite excellent performance, we decided to take action.
Founded in 2023 by a group of tech industry veterans who had personally experienced the dehumanizing aspects of modern tech hiring, QuietHire operates on a simple premise: the system is broken, but we know how to work around it.
We've built a network of insiders across top tech companies who help us place candidates directly, bypassing the traditional application process that leaves most candidates in limbo. Our approach is discreet, efficient, and most importantly, effective.
Our Philosophy
In today's tech landscape, loyalty is a one-way street. Companies expect unwavering dedication from employees while maintaining the right to cut thousands of jobs without remorse whenever it suits their bottom line.
At QuietHire, we believe talented professionals deserve better. We operate with a few core principles:
- Your value doesn't diminish because a company failed to recognize it
- The traditional hiring process is designed to benefit companies, not candidates
- Inside connections and direct advocacy are more powerful than polished resumes
- Tech professionals deserve advocates who are fully aligned with their success
We don't sugar-coat the reality: the system is rigged against individual candidates. But with our insider network and proven approach, we level the playing field.
How We're Different
We're Not Just Recruiters
Traditional recruiters represent companies, not candidates. Their incentives are aligned with filling roles quickly, not finding you the best possible position. At QuietHire, we exclusively represent candidates and our income sharing agreement means we only succeed when you do.
We Have Inside Access
Our network includes senior engineers, hiring managers, and internal recruiters at top tech companies across the industry. We don't just submit your resume to an application portal—we get your information directly to decision-makers.
We're Entirely Aligned With Your Success
Our income sharing agreement model means we have skin in the game. We only make money when you get hired and start earning. The better the compensation package we secure for you, the better we do.
We Operate Behind The Scenes
We understand discretion is important, especially if you're currently employed. Our stealth approach ensures your job search remains confidential until you're ready to make a move.
Our Results
Since our founding, QuietHire has helped hundreds of tech professionals land roles that match their skills, experience, and career goals—often at compensation levels significantly higher than they could have negotiated on their own.
Our clients typically:
- Receive interview invitations within 2 weeks of engaging our services
- Land new positions within a 4-6 months, even in challenging market conditions
- Secure compensation packages 15-25% higher than their previous roles
- Gain access to opportunities that were never publicly advertised
While we can't guarantee specific outcomes, our track record speaks for itself. We're selective about who we work with because we only want to represent candidates we're confident we can help.
Our Team
QuietHire was founded by a team of tech industry veterans with backgrounds at companies including Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and several successful startups. We've been on both sides of the hiring table and understand exactly how decisions get made.
While we maintain a low profile for strategic reasons (our inside connections are more effective when we operate discreetly), our team brings decades of combined experience in engineering, product management, technical recruiting, and career coaching.
What unites us is a shared belief that the tech hiring system is fundamentally broken, and that talented professionals deserve better than to be treated as disposable resources in corporate spreadsheets.
