In the last 18 months Perlego have grown their headcount from 35 to 95 people, and Welcome to the Jungle has played a key part in this. We've helped to hire roles across the board, from a Senior Software Engineer to Product Designers and a Regional Lead.
“We've made numerous business-critical roles using the platform since the beginning of the year. The additional services like boosted jobs and advanced insights made it a no-brainer for us.”

One of the areas that stood out to Perlego was the advanced insights Welcome to the Jungle provides. We helped provide data so Perlego could do a comprehensive internal salary review, and the data we provide now enables Perlego to post new roles with confidence that the salary they’re offering is competitive, and they will attract great candidates.
“Welcome to the Jungle is my number one tool as soon as we begin thinking about the hiring of a new position. The salary insights help shape decisions from thousands of data points, way before the job description even goes live.
This ensures we're in line with market expectations and providing the most competitive offer we're able to as a business.”

Chiara Ettl was hired as a Region Lead (DACH & Northern Europe) at Perlego after being messaged through Welcome to the Jungle sourcing tool, and found her new job in record time! Chiara loved the feeling of being in control of her job search.
“I was using Welcome to the Jungle for literally just 1 day before I found this role! The team reached out to me the day I signed up.
It was really quick, and I felt like I was in control of my job search, not leaving it to the mercy of random agency recruiters calling me when I was at work, who promised the world and rarely delivered.”
Chiara Ettl, Region Lead at Perlego
Chiara is very much enjoying her new role at Perlego, and is particularly thankful for how great her colleagues are, and the growth potential of the company.
