THE JOB WIRE — GUIDES & FAQ DEUTSCH ← BACK TO THE APP
For sponsors

Sponsor HireWire

One clearly labelled card in front of people in an active job search, who chose a tool because it doesn’t need an account or their data. No pixels, no click logs, no targeting: we can’t see who clicks, and you can’t see who our users are. You measure with a code or URL only HireWire users get.

Who sees it

People actively job hunting who picked a free, local-first tool. The 55 job feeds lean towards tech, product and remote roles, including German and EU employers.

The slot

A text card in the app sidebar plus one row in the job list, both marked “Sponsored”. No images, pop-ups or auto-play.

Tracking

None on the slot. A plain link, no redirect, no click logging, no referrer.

Price

Flat fee per run. Launch pricing on request: hey@hirewire.fyi

What you get

HireWire is a free job feed and application tracker at hirewire.fyi. It pulls 55 public job feeds into one list, scores postings against the user’s own profile and tracks applications, with everything kept in the user’s browser. Sponsors help keep the core free.

Sponsored

Your product

One line about why it matters to someone in a job search.

Your button text
  • Sidebar card: your product name, one line of copy and one button with your link.
  • In the job list: the same card as one row after the tenth posting, whenever the list shows at least eight postings.
  • Clearly labelled: both say “Sponsored”, and the link carries rel="sponsored".
  • One sponsor per category at a time, so you’re not shown next to a direct competitor. If more than one sponsor runs, the cards take turns with each hourly feed refresh.
  • No targeting: everyone sees the same card. HireWire doesn’t profile its users, so there’s nothing to target with.

“No tracking” is the point

Your link opens in a new tab as a plain link with rel="sponsored noopener noreferrer". There’s no redirect through HireWire and no click event, so we can’t see who clicks. Because of noreferrer, the browser doesn’t tell your site the visitor came from hirewire.fyi either, so you can’t see who our users are. For a privacy brand that is the pitch: you reach people who care about tracking, in a place that keeps its promise, and nobody gets profiled along the way.

How to measure without tracking

The same way you’d measure a podcast read or a print ad:

  • A URL only HireWire users see, such as yourbrand.com/hirewire, counted in your own analytics.
  • A unique promo code, such as HIREWIRE, counted at your checkout.
  • A dedicated landing page you host, so measurement stays on your side end to end.
  • From us: the exact dates your card ran, a screenshot of it live, and the total number of app page loads during your run from our anonymous, cookieless counts. Never per person, and never clicks.

Who we accept

Every slot is hand-sold and hand-picked. Good fits are products that respect their users’ privacy and help with a job search or a working life: private email, VPNs, password managers, private search and browsers, and career tools that don’t sell data. We say no to data brokers, behavioural ad networks, “guaranteed job” offers and recruiting spam.

What HireWire tracks itself

We’d rather you hear it from us. The app page counts anonymous feature use with PostHog: named events only, no autocapture, no session recording, no cookies, nothing at all unless the visitor opts in (and never under Do Not Track), and never sponsor clicks. The guide, tool and German pages, including this one, load no analytics. Details: Privacy, in plain language.

FAQ

You don’t publish audience numbers. Why should I pay?

Because we won’t publish numbers we haven’t measured. HireWire is new, and we don’t track users or sell data, so there is no demographic profile to show you. Before you commit we’ll share the total app page loads for the last 30 days from our anonymous counts. Early sponsors get launch pricing, and we’re happy to discuss a free trial run so you can test it with your own code first.

No click tracking: how do I know it worked?

With a code or URL that only HireWire users get: you count redemptions or visits on your side. We add the dates your card ran and the total app page loads in that period.

Can I target by country, role or seniority?

No. Everyone sees the same card, by design. HireWire doesn’t profile users, so there is nothing to target with, and that is part of what you’re buying.

Can I add a pixel, a script or a tracking redirect?

No pixels, scripts, third-party redirects or click-logging link shorteners. You choose the destination URL, so a dedicated path or campaign parameters on your own site are fine: that’s measured on your side only.

Can the card show a logo or an image?

Not at the moment. The card is text only: your product name, one line and a button label. It fits the look of the app and loads nothing from third parties.

Will I be shown next to a competitor?

No. We run one sponsor per category at a time.

What does it cost, and how do I book?

A flat fee for a fixed run, with launch pricing for early sponsors. Email hey@hirewire.fyi with your product, link and preferred dates, or use the Contact button in the app and pick “Sponsor the Wire”.
