Modern tech hiring is a completely broken process. We aim to change that.
“At Metheion, we built a Tech Recruiting agency without recruiters. Our technical experts provide candidates based on the real technical assessments against your product and technology stack, not based on CVs.”
Founder & CEOMetheion
Our clients notice that we strive to provide excellent tech hiring experience.
Searches follow the talent, not a single geography. We place engineers across 40+ countries in Europe, North America, the Gulf and Asia-Pacific.
We are a recruiting agency without recruiters. Our technical expert will own the brief, the search, and the interview.
All our experts are engineers who can fully understand your product and technology stack before starting the search.
Top candidates are not actively looking for jobs and can't be found on job boards. We base our recruitment campaigns on direct outreach, social selling, engineering networking channels, and rely on specialized recruitment software tools.
Don't rely on CVs for hiring. We design structured technical interviews to assess real technical skills. We provide you a full summary of the technical discussion and our feedback, so you can save time and make more informed hiring decisions.
Our recruiting process is completely FREE to try. You don't owe us anything if we fail to provide suitable candidates. We will find a replacement candidate free of charge if the placed candidate fails to complete 2-month probation period.
Discuss your product, technology, and hiring needs directly with a real technical expert.
