About us
At OCTO Labs, we’re revolutionizing the hiring process by bridging the gap between recruiters and candidates with actionable data. Our mission is simple yet profound: to humanize recruitment by ensuring that every interaction is meaningful, efficient, and transparent. We understand the challenges faced by recruiters and decision-makers in today’s fast-paced hiring environment—finding the right talent, reducing time-to-hire, and making data-driven decisions that align with your company’s goals. That’s why we’ve developed a unique platform that empowers you to create custom pre-interviews tailored to assess both hard and soft skills, as well as shared values. By leveraging real-time data, we enable you to make informed hiring decisions, reducing the cost and time associated with traditional recruitment processes. And for candidates, we offer something truly valuable—actionable feedback, so they can grow and improve, whether or not they land the job. At OCTO Labs, we don’t just facilitate recruitment; we transform it. We’re here to help you build a workforce that’s not only skilled but also aligned with your company’s mission and values. Join us in making recruitment more human, one positive candidate experience at a time.

Recruitment Agencies: Are you ready to stop wasting hours? External recruitment is a partnership between you and the candidate, and here's why that matters: When you reach out to a candidate in outbound recruitment, you're contacting someone who's already integrated into a company’s culture, processes, and dynamics. You’re asking them to leave an ecosystem they’ve built and join another. In an ideal world, that’s a win-win, but the reality is: sometimes your client rejects them, and both you and the candidate invest hours that go to waste. 🥱 That was the old way. With Octopus, you pre-qualify candidates before the first interview, eliminating the need for a stressful, weeks-long hiring process. 💬 “Hey, I have this exciting opportunity. Let’s use Octopus to ensure you’re the right fit. I’ll support you every step of the way, all the way to your first day.” So, recruitment agencies—are you ready to stop wasting hours and start investing in what really matters? Want to use those hours to acquire new clients instead? We thought so. 💡

We're ready for you.
🟣 Recruiters, would you want to have given feedback? "Of course! But company policy, translating hiring manager feedback.." Well, what if you never needed to do any of that? What if automatically as soon as candidates apply you could pre-qualify them and while they invest 10 min of their time, they get to know too whether they might be a good fit? I've applied to 10K+ jobs, only a handful of them has given me feedback. Those were the very small companies (e.g., creative agencies) with minimal resources but maximum care for being human. Well, what do you say recruiters? Are you ready to bring the same level of care to your candidates? Are you ready to be the top player in recruitment? Are you ready to be among the world's first brands who drive hiring decisions in confidence while FINALLY each candidate gets to know how they did? Are you ready to let Octopus bridge the gap and connect you with the right candidates? We're ready for you. And we're not going anywhere until we, really, solve the problem – for both sides. We're building a bridge that will last decades long, and hiring will never be "this" chaos again. -- 👋 Hey, this is C. Guz – founder of Octopus who is obsessed with humanizing recruitment. If you are ready to build the future of hiring with us, hit follow.

Recruiters, how much time are you wasting? Outbound hiring is tough. You approach settled candidates, they invest hours, and then… rejection. It’s frustrating for everyone. ▫️Octopus helps you pre-qualify candidates before interviews. Spend less time screening and more time closing deals. Ready to take back control? Let’s talk. (after you have your slice of pumpkin pie and Turkey of course!! Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃 See you next week?)
