JobRack's story began in 2015, born from a vision to connect businesses with the exceptional remote talent nestled in Eastern Europe. Initially founded by two enthusiasts of Eastern European developers, the platform aimed to bridge the gap between business owners seeking skilled professionals and the rich talent pool in the region. The early years focused on establishing JobRack as a go-to resource for companies looking to hire great people from this specific geographical area, emphasizing the strong educational background and technical skills prevalent there.

A significant turning point arrived in 2018 when Noel Andrews acquired JobRack. With a background in leading large teams in the corporate world and a burgeoning entrepreneurial spirit, Noel saw the immense potential to expand JobRack's mission. He refocused the company on bringing the power of Eastern European team members to an even broader range of businesses. This new chapter was marked by a commitment to a 'helpful and friendly hiring' philosophy, aiming to build lasting relationships and provide robust support throughout the often-complex remote hiring process. Recognizing the evolving landscape of remote work, JobRack further expanded its talent sourcing to include South Africa in 2023, identifying the incredible talent and similar value propositions this region offered. Today, JobRack prides itself on being more than just a job board; it offers 'Done With You' hiring services, actively sourcing, screening, and shortlisting candidates to ensure businesses find not just employees, but dedicated team members committed to their long-term growth. This hands-on approach, coupled with a deep understanding of the remote work ecosystem, has enabled JobRack to facilitate thousands of successful hires, helping businesses worldwide build high-performing remote teams.
