A note on COVID-19 & Remote Work:

As of March 2020, our Austin-based team has been working fully remote. We have transitioned to a Remote First company forever and will have a reduced office space in Austin in the future (earliest Summer 2021 depending on current health & safety guidelines).

Who We Are

CareerPlug's purpose is to empower people to reach their potential. We do that in part by making it easier for our clients to hire and develop the right people. Our proven process allows us to work with over 12,000 growing companies today. Our applicant tracking and onboarding platforms are designed with user experience in mind: from candidates to hiring managers to leaders.

It Starts With Our People

We believe that people are the heart of our business and are committed to building one of the best places to work - anywhere! To us, that means putting care and purpose into our hiring process, providing meaningful development and training opportunities for our team members, and living our core values every day.

Remote First

CareerPlug made the decision to be a Remote First company, forever, in the summer of 2020 after working remotely for months due to COVID-19. We know the heart of our business is wherever our employees work -- from our space in Austin, to a home office on Lake Michigan, to an outfitted van exploring the American West (true story!).

Anti-Racism Commitment

“My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.”

—Desmond Tutu

We have a fierce commitment to living out our core values at CareerPlug. It’s what shapes our culture and community, and shows up in a resolve to be inclusive, and therefore, anti-racist.

We know that racism can be intentional or unintentional, but its existence is dehumanizing to everyone it touches. Our promise is to purposefully identify, discuss, and challenge issues of systemic racism and unconscious bias and the impacts they have on our company and our people. We’ve always fostered a culture of communicating openly, but we know we can continue to do better. We will challenge ourselves to understand and correct inequities and create a “best place to work” for every employee.

We choose to participate in this conversation and affirm our identity as an anti-racist company. We hope you will join us.
