Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
1.6
GPA, above 6 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools we grade
Welcome to the Jungle is a job and company-culture site in France, the UK and the US. Employers use its Welcome Hiring Suite, which bundles employer brand pages, job matching, sourcing and an ATS, and pay by job packages rather than a fixed plan.
To get you started, here are 7 things to know about Welcome to the Jungle, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You pay for job packages with top-ups, no amount is shown, and it covers France, the UK and the US only.

The report card
Best for employer branding and hiring in France, the UK and the US
Welcome to the Jungle is a job and company-culture site whose hiring suite bundles employer pages, job matching, sourcing and an ATS. You pay for job packages with top-ups, no amount is shown, and it covers France, the UK and the US only.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | No price is published, so we can't set it against the $74 to $149 a month this category charges. That leaves it at C. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan and no trial is listed; the site routes you to a demo. A demo request isn't a trial. |
| Features | C | Employer pages, job matching, sourcing and an ATS. Branding content packages are sold separately from the job packages. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record, and the listing shows a company page and job packages to set up. That puts it at C. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Web only, with no separate app on record. One kind of device, so C. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Welcome to the Jungle is for
- Fits if you hire in France, the UK or the US and want your company page seen by candidates
- Works for employers who want a job board and an ATS from the same vendor
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you hire outside France, the UK and the US, because the homepage covers only those
- Not for you if you want a price: the page describes packages and top-ups without amounts
- Watch out: employer branding packages are separate from the job packages
- Tight if you want a free plan or trial, as none is listed
Good to know
Good for
- Tech and growing companies hiring in France, the UK or the US
- Teams that want employer branding bundled with an ATS
Worth knowing
- Pricing is by quote: the pricing page describes job packages with top-ups and does not list amounts.
- Covers France, the UK and the US only, per the homepage.
- Employer branding content packages are separate from the job packages.
Part 02 · Pricing

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Welcome to the Jungle you would be making jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 72 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools grade higher.
What you could make
- Applicant tracking: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board.
What this rests on. Welcome to the Jungle’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
