Companies in Wellington, New Zealand can run their whole hiring process on Pitch N Hire's applicant tracking system — job posting, a branded careers page, resume parsing, interview scheduling, scorecards and team collaboration — with a free-forever plan for one user. It works anywhere on the web, so a Wellington team can manage local and offshore hiring from one place.
An applicant tracking system (ATS) is the software a team uses to manage hiring end-to-end: posting jobs to boards and a branded careers page, collecting and parsing applications, moving candidates through pipeline stages, scheduling interviews, capturing structured scorecards, and collaborating on decisions. Pitch N Hire's ATS (its 'Operate' product) does all of this in the browser, with a free-forever tier for a single user and paid plans as a team grows. Because it is web-based it serves companies anywhere — a team can run its local recruitment and any offshore hiring from the same system, with reporting on time-to-fill and source performance so the process stays measurable rather than run over email and spreadsheets.
Create roles once and publish to your branded careers page and multiple job boards, so applications flow into one organised pipeline instead of scattered inboxes.
Resumes are parsed and candidates captured automatically, with duplicates merged, so your team starts from a clean, searchable candidate database.
Drag candidates through customisable stages, leave notes, and keep everyone aligned on where each person is — no more spreadsheet status-chasing.
Schedule interviews, share structured scorecards, and gather feedback in one place so hiring decisions are consistent and comparable across interviewers.
Dashboards show time-to-fill, source performance and pipeline conversion, so a team can see what's working and hire more predictably over time.
Pitch N Hire's applicant tracking system covers the full hiring workflow in one place:
Wellington is New Zealand's capital and the seat of central government, which makes public-sector and govtech engineering a defining feature of its market — departments, agencies and the digital-government programme drive steady, security-conscious demand. Alongside this sits a globally recognised film and visual-effects industry built around Weta, plus a compact startup and creative-tech scene, giving the city an unusually specialised engineering mix for its size.
Wellington talent is strong in government and enterprise software, digital-service delivery, and a distinctive film-technology and VFX pipeline pool around Weta, with skills in C#/.NET, Java, Python and real-time graphics. Victoria University of Wellington feeds the pipeline, and the workforce is stable, but the specialised, often clearance-adjacent or studio-tied nature of local talent leaves general software roles competitive, prompting offshore support.
Wellington developer pay sits a little below Auckland but remains strong for New Zealand — senior engineers often in the region of NZ$105k–NZ$145k, with premiums for specialised graphics and secure-systems skills. To scale general software delivery affordably, Wellington firms frequently combine local hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced and employed through PNH.
PNH supports Wellington's govtech and creative-tech employers with offshore engineering pods: vetted India-based developers employed through an Employer of Record, freeing scarce local specialists to focus on secure-systems or studio work. Given India runs several hours behind NZ, PNH agrees a fixed morning overlap and asynchronous handoffs so delivery scales without adding local headcount.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Wellington 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.
