Pitch N Hire gives Christchurch, New Zealand teams a complete interview toolkit — structured interview kits, live and one-way video interviews, scorecards and skills assessments — so hiring decisions are consistent and evidence-based. It runs in the browser and plugs into the ATS, helping a Christchurch company evaluate local and offshore candidates the same rigorous way.
Interview solutions are the software and structure a team uses to evaluate candidates consistently: reusable interview kits and question banks, live and one-way (asynchronous) video interviews, structured scorecards, and skills assessments — all tied back to the role's real requirements. Pitch N Hire's interview and assessment tooling makes evaluation objective and comparable across interviewers, reducing bias and hiring mistakes. It runs in the browser and integrates with the ATS, so a company can screen and assess candidates for local roles or an offshore team through one consistent, evidence-based process — especially useful when hiring across time zones, where asynchronous video interviews remove scheduling friction.
Create reusable interview kits and question banks per role, so every interviewer for a role assesses the same competencies in the same structured way.
Use one-way (asynchronous) video for early screening so candidates answer on their own time — ideal across time zones — and live video for deeper interviews.
Send skills assessments and structured exercises that test the actual competencies the role needs, so you evaluate ability rather than just résumés.
Interviewers complete structured scorecards against the same criteria, making candidates directly comparable and reducing individual bias in the decision.
Aggregated scores and recorded responses give your hiring team an evidence-based basis for the decision, and a clear audit trail for fairness.
Pitch N Hire's interview and assessment tooling standardises how you evaluate candidates:
Christchurch is the South Island's largest city and, since its post-earthquake rebuild, a deliberately reinvented technology centre with distinctive strengths in aerospace, spatial and geospatial technology, and agritech serving New Zealand's large primary sector. Rocket and drone ventures, precision-agriculture software and an innovation-precinct startup base give the city an engineering demand oriented toward hardware-adjacent, spatial and domain-specific software rather than pure commercial tech.
Christchurch talent is strong in aerospace and embedded systems, geospatial and spatial engineering, agritech and IoT, and backend software, with skills in C/C++, Python, Java and cloud, backed by the University of Canterbury's respected engineering programmes. The pool is high-quality but small and specialised, so senior and niche roles can be slow to fill locally — a frequent driver of offshore augmentation for general software capacity.
Christchurch developer pay generally sits below Auckland and Wellington, reflecting lower living costs — senior engineers often in the region of NZ$100k–NZ$140k, with premiums for aerospace, spatial and embedded skills. Employers scaling delivery or adding niche capacity frequently blend local Christchurch hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced and employed through PNH.
For Christchurch's aerospace, agritech and spatial teams, PNH provides an offshore extension: vetted India-based engineers employed through an Employer of Record, taking on general and application-software delivery so scarce local specialists stay focused on domain work. With India several hours behind NZ, PNH runs a morning overlap plus asynchronous handoffs, so capacity grows without a new entity.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Christchurch team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
