Case Study: CROWDYHOUSE achieves year-round hiring and rapid scaling with Recruitee

How to Master Year Round Hiring Online

CROWDYHOUSE is an Amsterdam startup running a fast-growing online marketplace that connects designers with customers to pre-sell and fund unique creations. As the team passed 20 people they faced a continuous, year‑round hiring challenge: how to source the right niche talent online, scale recruiting across departments, and keep hiring efficient as the company grew.

They solved this by systematizing hiring with Recruitee, leaning on niche job boards (DezeenJobs supplies roughly half their applicants) and their own site (about a quarter), and empowering every team member to scout candidates. The result is a scalable, decentralized process that sped up hiring, reduced dependence on costly promotions, and supported rapid growth while preserving team culture.
