Jobvite

What Jobvite does

Jobvite, Inc. is a U.S.-based, Indianapolis-headquartered provider of cloud-based talent acquisition software serving mid-sized and enterprise organizations. Founded in 2008 (operating since 2006 per some materials) and now a subsidiary of Employ, Inc. — formed in 2020 when Entegers combined Jobvite with JazzHR and Lever, with backing from Silver Lake — the company sells a modular Talent Acquisition Suite built around a core Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and add-on modules including Recruitment Marketing, Onboarding, Career Sites, Employee Referrals, Source & CRM, Job Broadcast, Candidate Messaging, Analytics, AI Interview Companion, and Internal Mobility. The platform is hosted on AWS with multi-tenant architecture, SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications, GDPR and CCPA compliance, and integrations across HRIS, payroll, background check, and assessment ecosystems.

The company's revenue model is subscription-based, modular SaaS priced per recruiter at $199–$599+ per month for enterprise tiers, with annual billing and an additional Inside Sales motion for mid-market accounts. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales ("Request a Demo") supported by direct sales, an inside-sales team, an ADP Marketplace channel partnership, and job-board broadcast partnerships with Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, and Glassdoor. Customer base spans 6,640 organizations across the broader Employ Inc. portfolio (Jobvite, Lever, JazzHR), with named enterprise customers across nonprofit, education, financial services, retail, manufacturing, services, and media verticals.

Jobvite's strategic posture reflects a 2019–2020 build-and-buy phase (a $200M K1 Investment Management Series 4 followed by the acquisitions of RolePoint, Canvas, Talemetry, Talentegy, and Predictive Partner) transitioning into a productization phase focused on AI-powered features (AI Interview Companion, 2023), standalone Employee Referral software (2024), and ongoing analyst recognition (G2, Hackett Group, Gartner). The company competes in a $2.73B (2026) global ATS market growing at 13.1% CAGR, positioned as a compliance-heavy, AI-featured mid-market and enterprise alternative to larger HCM suites.
