Where jobs come from
Backspin reads job postings from employers’ own applicant tracking systems (ATS), the software employers post jobs in. It never takes jobs from LinkedIn, Indeed or other job boards.
Hiring systems we read
Section titled “Hiring systems we read”Greenhouse, Workday, Lever, iCIMS, Oracle Recruiting Cloud, ADP Workforce Now, Ashby, UKG (UltiPro), SmartRecruiters, Workable, Rippling, BambooHR, Paylocity, JazzHR, Recruitee, Pinpoint, Breezy HR and Teamtailor.
How we read them
Section titled “How we read them”- Only public job pages and feeds, with no sign-in. Backspin never gets past bot protection, solves CAPTCHAs or ignores a site’s access rules.
- Every request names Backspin in its User-Agent, sends at most 2 requests a second to a host, and backs off when a site asks it to.
- Each employer’s board is rechecked about every six hours.
- A crawl that misses any page fails as a whole, so a partial list never looks complete.
- Backspin fills in only what the employer states, or what the job’s own text says, and records which.
