Team Haystack
Tech recruitment is stuck in the dark ages. Help us bring it into the 21st century.
Our Culture & Values
We work hard to hire amazing, talented people. We want you to be best version of yourself when you come to work and underpinning all of this is a culture and set of values that we live and breathe.
1
Techies are golden
Techies hold the power, not the recruiters. We want Haystack to be at the heart of every tech community and our team is the driving force behind this vision.
2
Autonomy, always
We’re enthusiastic and ambitious as hell. The only thing flat about us is our company structure. We give everyone responsibility and don’t waste time and energy on micromanagement.
3
Passionate about people
Our people have a curiosity for all things tech and are driven by making an impact every day. The Haystack team all bring their own personality and creativity into the dynamic of our company.
4
Intensely data-driven
We win arguments with data and evidence, not status. We commit to learning every day and seek out personal and professional growth. We don’t assume - instead, we ask, we listen and we research.
5
Challenge the status quo
Remarkable outcomes are rarely the product of modest risk. Use the freedom you are given - be adventurous, experiment, innovate, create new ideas. Stand out like the purple cow!
6
Be a J.E.D.I
Just effing do it. Don’t wait to be told what to do. Work smart and on things that make a step change. Focus on short feedback cycles, iterate, experiment, share early and often. Embrace change and remember that perfect is the enemy of great.
