Shine.com unveils Hackathon Platform: An easy and effective path to bringing suitable candidates and employers together

Hackathon is conducted online and is designed based on the job description (required by the company) where matching candidates are invited to register for Hackathons and appear in the activity on the mentioned dates.

A dedicated leader board is present on Shine.com that gathers comprehensive insights on a candidate that helps the leader board to announce the winner/winners, where the companies directly connect with the winners and make job offers.

A recent Mint + Shine Talent Insights report revealed that almost 50% of candidates are interested in getting hired through Hackathons, while 31% are open to trying.  Similarly, 28% of recruiters are absolutely in favour of choosing Hackathons as their preferred mode of recruitment, whereas 35% believe it can work sometimes. Rest, 24.12% recruiters are open to trying Hackathons as a medium to hire.

Shine.com’s Hackathons are open for all candidates and have no pre-fixed duration as it solely depends on the organisation’s needs. Shine Hackathons also cater to non-tech hiring which includes assessments on communication skills. Each month more and more candidates get opportunities to get one step closer to join their dream companies by participating in the Shine Hackathons & showcasing their skills, getting onto the leader boards and getting a chance for interviewing with the companies of their choice.
