Case Study: Lookout scales technical recruiting and shortens hiring cycles with Hired

Lookout scales technical recruiting and builds brand awareness with Hired

Lookout is a mobile cybersecurity company that uses a cloud-based platform and a global sensor network of over 60 million users to predict and stop mobile attacks for consumers and enterprise partners, including major mobile operators. As a fast-growing startup, Lookout needed to scale quickly—from 85 to 250 employees—so it required technically skilled engineers who were passionate about mobile security and wanted a way to build awareness of its work while rapidly expanding its talent pipeline.

Lookout turned to Hired and embedded the platform into its weekly recruiting routine, reviewing candidate profiles each Monday and sharing top matches with hiring managers. Using Hired, Lookout has hired more than 24 engineers, built a consistent, qualified pipeline, shortened hiring cycles by engaging active candidates early, and boosted employer branding by showcasing its security projects on the platform.
