Working with some of the world’s leading brands and Asia’s top employers, HackerTrail attracts sign-ups from more than 10,000 technologists each month from all over the world; it then provides gamified technical assessments, training, captures work and cultural preferences, and soon will obtain verified professional references, to help those people find their dream job. Considered a startup but already profitable, HackerTrail intends to become the go-to resource for anyone looking for a career in tech, and for any organisation making technical hires, first within IT and later across all Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines.
