Hook is building a new product that helps companies leverage data to deliver customer success more effectively. Hook is the best way to get customers using, adopting and loving subscription products.

Team Hook

Hook really stood out as an early stage team because of how much they care about building a diverse team of people from different backgrounds, and giving them a great environment to work in.

Many founders dismiss these topics in the early stages, believing they can solve them when the company is bigger, but at Welcome to the Jungle we encourage teams to think about these topics early to set themselves up for success. Hook was able to use Welcome to the Jungle to demonstrate their values in these areas.

“Welcome to the Jungle gives us the opportunity to portray our hiring brand in a much richer way with data such as employee reviews, our diversity statistics and team photos.

This means that candidates can immediately see our differentiation against other employers.”

Firaas Rashid, Founder & CEO of Hook

As a founder, Firaas Rashid was short on time, so having a product that was quick and easy to use was important.

Welcome to the Jungle focuses on building for the best, most mission-driven candidates, which means companies receive higher quality applications, and it’s easy to proactively message active candidates in the startup ecosystem.

“The candidates are much more interesting than we find through other routes, and are interesting, curious, intelligent and diverse.

They are also exclusively looking for roles in high-growth companies which in itself makes Welcome to the Jungle candidate pool unique and reduces the time both the candidate and employer need to spend filtering.”

Amelia, Head of Business Operations at Hook

Amelia was one of the first people Hook hired through Welcome to the Jungle. Originally hired as a Business Operations Manager, she quickly got promoted to Head of Business Operations. She had been using Welcome to the Jungle for around a month before being hired.

“I was looking to work for a fast moving, exciting tech company.

Almost all of the companies on Welcome to the Jungle matched this description, therefore it was really easy to find relevant job openings and submit meaningful applications.”

Amelia is now excelling at Hook, having already been promoted since she joined earlier in 2021. As expected when we started working with Hook, it’s clear they’re building a great culture and team, and have a bright future ahead.

We’re looking forward to helping them continue to grow their team.

“Our vision is to create an amazing workplace for ambitious people that want to be a part of a team, and it really shows.

'Team' is so central to everything we do and I've never worked anywhere with such a high level of willing cooperation between business areas.

It means we get stuff done quickly and it's just nice to know everyone has my back if I need help.”
