Welcome to the HireSkys Applicant Tracking System (ATS). We built this platform to make remote hiring incredibly fast, safe, and spam-free for everyone.

Before we dive into the rules, we want you to experience the full power of our ATS without any risk. That is why we give every new employer 2 Free Job Credits as soon as they sign up. You can post real jobs, manage candidates in the Kanban board, and test our features completely free.

And when you are ready to scale, remember: upgrading to our Urgent Plan doesn't just give you premium ATS features. We actively promote your job across our main job board and social channels to bring you the top 1% of global remote talent.


100% Remote Jobs Only

HireSkys is built exclusively for the modern workforce. Our platform is strictly a remote-only job board. When you use our ATS to publish an open position, it must be a fully remote role.

Whether the position is restricted to a specific time zone, a certain country, or open to candidates anywhere in the world (Global), it must not require the employee to commute to a physical office. Hybrid or on-site job postings are not permitted and will be automatically rejected during our manual review process.

This strict remote-only policy ensures that top global talent can trust the listings on HireSkys, saving valuable time for both employers and candidates.


Why are Job Titles and Categories Locked?

If you try to edit your job after posting it, you will notice that the Job Title and Category are greyed out and locked. We do this for a very specific reason: to prevent system abuse.

On older job boards, a scammer could post a job for a "Frontend Developer", collect a bunch of resumes, and then edit the exact same job post to say "Sales Manager" to trick more people without paying for a new job credit.

By locking the core details, we ensure that every job on HireSkys remains authentic and true to its original purpose. You can still edit your job description, salary, and location at any time!


The Job Approval Process (Pending Status)

When you submit a new job, it doesn't go live instantly. Instead, its status changes to "Pending Review". This is because HireSkys is a premium, curated platform.

During this pending stage, our quality assurance team manually checks your job post. We do this to:

  • Fix Formatting: We clean up the text, fix any broken bullet points, and make sure your job description looks highly professional and attractive to top candidates.
  • Verify Legitimacy: We ensure the job is a real remote opportunity and meets our quality standards.

Our Refund Guarantee

If your job is rejected for any reason, you do not lose your money. Your 1 Job Credit is automatically refunded back to your account so you can try again with a compliant job post.


Team Access: Because Hiring is a Team Sport

Team Collaboration on HireSkys

If your company is growing, you shouldn't have to review hundreds of resumes all by yourself. That is exactly why we built Team Collaboration directly into our ATS. It lets you bring your co-founders, HR managers, and technical leads into your private workspace so you can make decisions together.

Setting it up is incredibly simple. Just enter your colleague's email address and select their role. You can make them an Admin (who has full control over job posts and billing) or an Interviewer (who can only view candidates and move them across the Kanban board).

Once you send the invite, they receive a secure, branded email to join your workspace instantly. It keeps everyone on the same page and helps you hire the best person, faster.


Integrations & Automated Interview Scheduling

Automated Scheduling Integrations

Think about how much time you waste emailing a candidate back and forth just to find a good time for a quick 15-minute interview. It is frustrating, right? Our Integrations feature completely eliminates this headache.

Inside your ATS settings, you can securely connect your Calendly , Cal or other booking links like hubspot , zoho by using our custom booking links setup.

✉️ The Real Magic: Auto-Email Triggers

Here is where the real magic happens. You can write a customized "Interview Template" in your settings. Now, whenever you review a candidate on your Kanban board and simply drag their card into the "Interviewing" column, our system wakes up. It automatically takes your custom email, attaches your calendar booking link at the very bottom, and sends it directly to the candidate. Zero manual work required!
