About JobsHype
JobsHype is a Recruitment Intelligence Platform engineered to help employers, recruitment agencies, and multi-site organisations attract, engage, and build relationships with the next generation of talent.
Operating legally under Talent Acquisition Group Limited, the platform bridges the gap between employer branding and automated candidate acquisition by leveraging social media advertising, proprietary labour market intelligence, and mobile-first communication channels.
The JobsHype architecture
Built for the future of recruitment
JobsHype is an AI-powered recruitment platform that connects employers with candidates through social recruitment, intelligent automation and direct conversation.
Instead of relying on job adverts and applications alone, JobsHype helps businesses find, engage and connect with the people they need — from a small business making its next hire to recruitment teams running sophisticated campaigns at scale.
The JobsHype ecosystem includes:
- Hype Go
Recruitment made simple. Businesses tell us who they need and JobsHype finds and matches relevant people. When candidates are ready, employers can connect and start conversations directly through the Hype Go app.
- Hype Studio
Our recruitment marketing platform for employers and recruitment teams that want greater control over how they attract and engage candidates. Plan, launch and manage targeted recruitment campaigns from one place.
- Recruitment Marketing
Targeted social recruitment campaigns designed to reach relevant candidate audiences across Facebook, Instagram and the wider JobsHype network — including campaign launches, audience building and candidate activation.
- Instant Reach
Connect vacancies directly with relevant people in the JobsHype Recruitment Network, creating candidate interest and conversations without relying solely on people actively searching job boards.
- The JobsHype Recruitment Network
A growing network of opted-in candidates and local recruitment audiences, enabling JobsHype to connect employers with people by location, occupation and interests — including candidates who may not be actively searching for work.
- Recruitment Intelligence
Our intelligence layer analyses local labour markets, candidate audiences, recruitment difficulty and campaign performance to help employers understand where candidates are and how best to reach them.
- AI Recruitment Automation
AI works throughout the JobsHype ecosystem to understand hiring requirements, engage candidates, gather information and documents, support screening, score responses and help turn candidate interest into qualified conversations.
- One connected platform
Hype Go and Hype Studio are powered by the same JobsHype ecosystem, connecting recruitment marketing, candidate audiences, automation, conversations and intelligence into one platform.
Our story
JobsHype was founded in 2019 by Olly Adderley, following more than two decades working at the intersection of recruitment, technology and candidate attraction.
The story began in 2019, when Olly recognised a fundamental shift in candidate behaviour: people were moving away from traditional desktop job boards and increasingly discovering opportunities through mobile-first social platforms.
Rather than follow the traditional recruitment model, he began building localised social media job communities designed to connect employers with candidates where they were already spending their time. This growing network of local recruitment audiences became the foundation for what would become JobsHype.
Originally launched under the brand Jobster, the business grew rapidly before the Jobster brand was strategically acquired by European recruitment group YoungCapital.
Following the sale, JobsHype was established as a new chapter, focused entirely on building proprietary recruitment marketing technology, live candidate audiences and faster ways for employers to connect with the people they need.
Founder
Olly Adderley has more than 20 years of experience in recruitment, combining recruitment expertise with software engineering and recruitment marketing.
Before JobsHype, Olly founded and scaled one of the UK’s largest digital recruitment agencies, specialising in volume workforce attraction. He has worked across the recruitment process from candidate acquisition and marketing through to applicant tracking, technology and hiring.
As a software engineer, Olly has also built recruitment technology from the ground up, including one of the UK’s early applicant tracking systems specifically designed for small businesses, bringing sophisticated recruitment technology to employers that traditionally lacked access to it.
His experience sits at the intersection of three disciplines: recruitment, technology and marketing.
That combination is at the heart of JobsHype, using software, live audiences and conversational recruitment to help employers reach and hire candidates faster.
Brand purpose
The name Jobs Hype is inspired by two principles that define our approach to recruitment: Hyper Local and Hyper Fast.
We believe the best recruitment happens when employers connect with the right people in the right location, as quickly as possible. Rather than waiting for candidates to discover vacancies on job boards, JobsHype uses social media, AI and mobile messaging to proactively identify, engage and screen local candidates.
Our mission is to transform recruitment from a slow, reactive process into an intelligent, always-on recruitment network that delivers better hiring outcomes for employers and better opportunities for candidates.
At JobsHype, "Hype" isn't about making noise, it's about creating momentum. By combining recruitment intelligence, automation and hyper-local communities, we're building a faster, smarter and more connected way for people and employers to find each other.
Our mission
Our mission is to help employers reach the next generation of talent by modernising the talent acquisition pipeline for the modern, mobile-centric workforce.
