Hirex: The best Bullhorn alternative for companies just like yours
Hirex is a flexible and affordable all-in-one talent-hiring platform.
Bullhorn is a capable ATS and CRM, but it's purpose-built for staffing and recruiting agencies placing contractors with external clients, not for an in-house team hiring for its own company. Hirex is designed specifically for corporate hiring teams, with a fully customizable, SEO-ready job board out of the box.
Hirex also ships with a dedicated Chrome sourcing extension that works with LinkedIn out of the box, where Bullhorn's native extension doesn't support LinkedIn sourcing at all.
In our class, we're the best.
Where Hirex pulls further ahead
Hirex's AI reads every incoming CV against your job criteria and returns a fit score with a clear breakdown. Bullhorn's Amplify gives a 0 to 100 score combining resume and screening data, which is a real strength, but its AI screener analyzes voice or text rather than scoring recorded video interviews. Hirex scores recorded video interview answers automatically, and its AI can search LinkedIn from a plain-language description of your ideal candidate or scan your existing candidate pool for people who already fit a role you just opened.
Integrations that keep your existing tools
Hirex connects to the tools your hiring team already uses, including assessment platforms like HackerRank and Codility, video interviews with Hireflix, and everyday tools like Google Calendar, Outlook, Zoom and Slack, all included in the core platform.
When Bullhorn might still make sense
If you're running a staffing or recruiting agency placing contractors and temps with external clients, Bullhorn's agency-specific CRM, back-office and VMS features are genuinely purpose-built for that business model in a way Hirex isn't. Hirex is built for in-house corporate hiring teams recruiting for their own company, so if agency placement is your business, Bullhorn remains the more purpose-built tool.
