The short answer

  • HeyJobs : German performance recruiting service with AI screening, budgets from €400/mo, a managed option for larger hiring volumes in Europe. From €400/mo

Why people look past Talent Square

Total cost is plan fee plus a percentage fee plus the ad budget plus pre-screen fees, so compare all four before choosing. Customers and testimonials are Slovak and Central European, pricing is in euros, and only Meta is named as an ad channel.

What we noted

  • Four separate cost parts: plan, percentage fee, ad budget and pre-screens
  • Euro pricing and a Central European customer base
  • Only Meta named as an ad channel

Not the right fit for

  • US teams that want USD billing and US case studies
  • High volume employers who need programmatic ads across many job sites

Worth keeping in mind: All you need is a job description and a careers page: the AI handles ad copy and targeting, and pre-screening is charged per candidate instead of per seat. Higher plans cut the percentage fee on your ad spend from 25% to 5%.

What each one does differently

HeyJobs

€400/mo

Why it comes up: German performance recruiting service with AI screening, budgets from €400/mo, a managed option for larger hiring volumes in Europe.

Stands out: HeyAssessment screening is included in the budget, reviewing applications and using live chat to check qualifications, interest and reachability. Ads run on Google, Meta, TikTok, Xing and 50+ other channels, backed by a talent pool of more than 4.5 million people.

Watch out: HeyJobs is not an applicant tracking system, so pipelines and offers stay in another tool. The €400 HIRE entry still carries a €1,200 minimum budget use, and prices are published in euros only.

Best for

  • German employers with hard-to-fill jobs
  • Teams with 10 or more open roles
  • Recruiters who already have an ATS

Joveo

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Quote based AI programmatic job ads across many job sites, for high volume employers rather than social only campaigns.

Stands out: Agentic workflows cover job distribution, career sites, conversational screening, AI interviewing, and scheduling in one stack, with multicurrency and multilingual campaigns.

Watch out: This is a high-volume programmatic buy, not a career-site CMS for employer brand. Pricing is tailored. There is no public per-applicant card.

Best for

  • Direct employers and RPOs hiring at volume across many locations
  • Staffing firms that need programmatic spend optimized toward qualified applicants
  • TA teams already on iCIMS, Greenhouse, Workday, or Bullhorn

Boostpoint

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Quote based social job ads paired with candidate texting, aimed at US hourly and trade hiring.

Stands out: Social job ads on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok with mobile apply, then SMS follow-up in the same suite.

Watch out: Software is quoted by job volume. Ad spend is separate. A $750 per month per category floor is the suggested media budget, not the SaaS fee.

Best for

  • Healthcare and light industrial employers buying social job ads
  • TA teams that need SMS after the apply
  • Companies feeding jobs from an ATS XML feed
