Dates

  • Sprint runs Saturday, September 12, 2026, 10:00 AM–6:00 PM ET (in person).
  • Building begins ~11:00 AM; Devpost submission deadline is 4:30 PM ET, just before live demos.

Eligibility

  • Open to all — engineers, founders, students, and HR/TA practitioners. No recruiting-software experience required.
  • In-person only; you must be present at the venue to compete.
  • Teams of 1–5. Solo entries allowed, but teaming up is encouraged — practitioners can join as product advisors.

Project and Submission Requirements

 

  • All work must be built during the sprint — no pre-built projects or code written before the event (existing open-source libraries/frameworks are fine).
  • AI tools and assistants are allowed and encouraged; your creative direction and core build must be your team's own.
  • Submit on Devpost by the 4:30 PM deadline.
