About Greenhouse

Greenhouse is a purpose-built recruiting platform trusted by thousands of organisations to manage the full hiring lifecycle—from job requisition and candidate sourcing through interviewing, offer management, and onboarding handoff. The platform's philosophy centres on structured hiring: ensuring every candidate is evaluated against the same criteria through a consistent, data-driven process. AI features in Greenhouse include Candidate Scoring, which uses machine learning to rank applicants based on skills and experience against job requirements, helping recruiters prioritise their pipeline. Job Description Grader analyses postings for inclusive language and provides suggestions to broaden appeal and reduce bias in how roles are advertised. Greenhouse's AI-powered interview kits recommend structured question sets for each role and scorecard, prompting interviewers to evaluate candidates against specific competencies. This consistency reduces the influence of gut-feel decisions and creates an auditable record of how hiring decisions were made—important for organisations that need to demonstrate equitable hiring to regulators or in legal proceedings. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in New York City, Greenhouse was acquired by Permira in 2024 and continues to operate independently. The platform serves over 7,500 organisations globally including DocuSign, HubSpot, Wayfair, and Airbnb. Greenhouse integrates with over 450 HR technology tools, making it a central hub for talent acquisition technology stacks. Greenhouse holds SOC 2 Type II certification and ISO 27001 accreditation, with data hosting options in the US and EU. The platform supports GDPR compliance with candidate consent management features, data deletion workflows, and detailed audit logs—important for organisations in Europe subject to strict rules on processing candidate personal data.
