About this app

The traditional staffing agency model is ineffective, time-consuming, and expensive. That's why we built Knack. Now, you can request engineering and other technical talent within minutes right from your phone.

Request talent within minutes.
Knack's mobile hiring wizard makes it easy to create requests for designers, engineers, and other tech workers.

Get talent flow within 48 hours.
Once your request is submitted, you will receive push notifications when Knack identifies qualified candidates. Our focus is quality over quantity.

Screen and hire directly from Knack!
When you receive notifications, simply launch the app to review candidate profiles, schedule interviews, and hire engineers!

Stop wasting time and money on recruiters.
Companies spend approximately $4,000 per candidate on interviewing, scheduling, and assessment to decide if someone is right for a job. Once the decision to hire is made, recruiting fees can run between 25% of the candidate’s total first year annual earnings.

How Knack Works
We are on a mission to change the way companies attract top engineering talent.

1. Install App
Knack is available for iOS. To get started, simply install the app and log in with LinkedIn.

2. Agree to Terms
Before you start interviewing candidates, you or your HR department will need to agree to our contingency fee recruiting agreement.

We will start sending candidates almost immediately after you submit a request. We guaranteed talent flow within 48 hours.
