★★★★★

this was an excellent recruitment tool!

The VanHack platform showed brought us so many great and pre filtered candidates. It gave me the sense that I could finally interview talented and pre-vetted candidates that fit my stack and gave us the power to connect directly with the candidates by all means of communication. What a breath of fresh air this experience was, and that isn't even mentioning Ilya and his helpfulness - would 100% recommend this to any founder or someone hiring software engineers!

It's hard to describe the level at which they operate...

It's hard to describe the levels apart from VanHack and other providers, it's not just their people providing the service, but also their tech stack that contributed to truly an amazing experience. You feel they think about your business better than yourself and just remove all friction possible for the benefit of the relationship between the candidate and us.

the best, helped me getting to Canada. Great migration consultants and support from all the staff. Thank you!!!

Great service! it could be greater though :)

I was employed through VanHack and am now on Canada. Overall, it was a great experience with them, from the help on getting the papers to get the work permit, to tips and contacts to get a house to rent. I have two suggestions to make this service even greater: - have someone in landing city to guide the newcomer on the peculiarities of life in Canada. We had a hard time learning some of them, and still struggling with others. Even something so basic as having someone's contact to ask when you are lost, and better yet, in your native language, would be a huge help - add a consultancy service to help select a path and create the profiles for applying to Permanent Residency. It is a pain to get clear information without giving half yous savings in the process!
