Skeeled: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Skeeled is a talent acquisition platform for employers. It combines an applicant tracking system with candidate assessments, one-way video interviews, branded career pages and distribution to job boards. Recruiters manage applications in a web application, and the company also offers recruitment services to clients that outsource hiring. The software is delivered as a cloud platform and is an alternative to video interview tools such as HireVue for organisations that want to process applicant data within the EU.

Skeeled HR S.à.r.l. is incorporated under Luxembourg law with its registered office in Dudelange, so the operator is a company in the EU. The data protection notice states that, as a general rule, no data is transferred outside the EU or the EEA, and the company undertakes to comply with the GDPR. The public pages name no cloud provider, no data centre and no parent company. The product is not offered for self-hosting, so a European organisation should fix the hosting arrangements and the data processing terms in its contract before deploying the platform.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Skeeled

Skeeled is headquartered in LU and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Skeeled scores best on data residency.

Skeeled is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Skeeled together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
