About HiredX
HiredX was created to strengthen the hiring ecosystem by creating spaces where people can connect, learn, and grow together.
From Idea to Impact
HiredX started in Vancouver in 2022 as a simple fix to a common problem: hiring events were loud, random, and time-wasting for both recruiters and candidates.
So we built something more intentional: a curated, community-led hiring experience where technical talent and hiring teams can have real conversations (not “spray and pray” networking).
Today, HiredX continues to grow through the people behind it: organizers, recruiters, and volunteers who care deeply about the tech community, and about making hiring feel human again.
Why we exist
Signal > noise. We curate for experienced tech talent: 3+ years minimum, with 7.5 years average experience in recent editions.
Built for the roles teams actually hire for. Our candidate mix skews toward core builders, Developers + Data make up the majority (e.g., 42% Developers and 24% Data/Analytics in HiredX 10).
Better conversations, faster decisions. Recruiters meet candidates who are ready for meaningful hiring chats, candidates meet teams who are actively hiring or building pipelines.
Community-first, not resume-first. We prioritize alignment, communication, and real-world impact over perfect formatting and keyword games.
We keep improving every edition. Feedback from recruiters + candidates shapes how HiredX evolves, so the next event is always sharper.
