Hire, not to be confused with Hired. Google is going strong into the recruiting/jobs space. They recently introduced a jobs "card" within their search results. E.g.

It seems like every big company is launching a hiring solution the last few months ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why do so many companies, now including Google have a non-world wide policy? | "Hire is currently available only to organizations based in the United States"

I hear there's a couple job openings in the Justice Department's antitrust division.

It must be amazing to work at Google and come up with names for your products. We all sit here, putting in hours of research, thesaurusing, mood boarding, and domain availability searching for a name that's passably sensical. At Google, people be like "We're making a tool to hire people, what should we call it?". "How about Hire". "GENIUS!".

The pricing page doesn't have pricing. Not a good sign! I expected this would be an add on for gsuite. It would be interesting if they bill it as a premium offering instead of another reason to use gsuite.

This isn't launched or available. I don't get why it is here on PH. I applied for a demo with a 10 person company on Gsuite and they emailed me back telling me we don't qualify to use it.

I tried to get a demo, but it said that based on my information provided, they are not able to offer it to our organization. Seems like we had all the right answers, small, Google focused email and calendar, etc. Any ideas on the criteria for a demo?

Google today announced the launch of Hire, a new service that helps businesses more effectively manage their internal recruiting process. Hire offers businesses a cohesive applicant tracking service that’s deeply integrated with G Suite to make it easier for businesses to communicate with their candidates and track their progress through the interview process.

With powerful offerings like Gmail, Calendar or Hangouts, Google is finding new (sometimes originally questionable) ways to direct people to those services. Hiring makes complete sense as it leverages a lot of existent G Suite products.

Problem is a lot of businesses still use Microsoft Outlook looks like this requires Gmail

This looks incredible and being part of the G-Suite offering is 🔥. I would think everyone at Greenhouse etc is very scared right now.

Thank you @arlogilbert, surprised @chrismessina and @rrhoover didn't call out as well. If goal of product hunt is to discover new products not sure how Amazon and Google making up up 3 of top 5 makes sense.

Will be interesting to see what Facebook does with Jobs to combat this in the future.

I think this is a no-brainer for SME/SMBs. It will be interesting to see if any major Enterprise Companies take a risk on this. I assume Google themselves will be using or have used as part of the development process. One thing that all tools have struggled with in the hiring category, which is very different from so many others, is compliance.

We were not going to open our 'Jobs as a Service' API up until Q4 but are now launching it due to small companies and job boards not being given access to their tech. Individuals need the niche offerings, as well as our Fortune 500 companies so they definitely are making things move in the job market. It's helped ThisWay in many ways.

Wow, it's pretty awesome!

Does anyone know if mail templates are or will be incorporated into Gmail? I've been dying for that feature (maybe I've missed it)

Could it be the start of a new professional social network?

This makes me wonder about what the the overarching goal is at Google, if not for Cloud dominance. First, they make job boards surface better results and now they want to manage that pipeline. Whatever the reason, Google is aware just as we are at Imagine Careers, there is something wrong with the fundamentals of the hiring experience. Looking forward to see how this plays out.
