Candidly is a high-growth, Series B startup, funded by leading investors including Altos Ventures, Aflac, Salesforce Ventures, UBS, Equal Opportunity Ventures, Impact Engine, Rethink Impact, Unum, and Cercano Management. Our fully remote, international team of 70 (and counting) includes alumni from Google, UBS, Twitter, Plaid, Prudential, LendingTree, Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, and more.

We offer comprehensive medical, dental and vision plans, 401(k), financial wellness, behavioral health and employee lifestyle support programs, life and disability insurance, parental benefits, student loan repayment program and paid time off including 16 hours volunteer time off.


Location: Candidly works remotely by design. There is no physical office building.
