Done with Excel. Recruit like a pro.
One system instead of spreadsheets, email threads, and chat messages. Start with a guided product evaluation using your own recruiting workflow.
You recruit in-house. Not for an agency..
Agency tools are too expensive and too complex. And Excel plus email stops working once you fill 15 roles a year with no IT department behind you.
Spreadsheets multiply with every new role. Who edited it last? Which version did you send the hiring manager? Nobody knows.
The hiring manager messages you on Slack, HR replies by email, interview notes live in a notebook. No history, no context.
Candidate consents in a separate sheet, CVs deleted by hand, no audit trail. When the regulator comes knocking, you have a problem.
- Every CV and the full history in one place
- Hiring managers leave feedback inside the system
- GDPR is managed automatically
- Career page ready instantly, with no IT
From $49 a month. No annual contract. No IT project.

Who is Yena in-house built for?.
Tech startup
Challenge
40 people, 1 recruiter, 12 new roles a year. CVs buried in email, feedback from the CTO over Slack, no candidate history.
Outcome
Every search in one place. The CTO scores candidates in the system. Time-to-hire cut by 38%.
Mid-market manufacturer
Challenge
120 employees, HR is one person. High turnover on shop-floor roles, repeat searches, no talent pool.
Outcome
A pool of past candidates halves sourcing time. GDPR under control with no extra workload.
Software house
Challenge
60 people, the CTO hires developers personally. No time to screen CVs, hard to find senior profiles on the job boards.
Outcome
AI sourcing surfaces only the strongest matches. The CTO spends 30 minutes a week on hiring instead of 5 hours.
In-house recruiters who left Excel behind.
"For three years I recruited in Excel. Moving to Yena took half a day. Now I have every candidate's history, GDPR is off my plate, and hiring managers have stopped pinging me on chat."
"Enterprise platforms felt too big and too expensive for our 70-person company. Yena is exactly what I was looking for. Simple, fast, and the multiposting to LinkedIn and Indeed just works."
"We hire 20 to 25 people a year. Yena's talent pool feature is a genuine game-changer. On the next role I instantly have 30 to 40 people to reach out to."
