Welcome to the Jungle: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Welcome to the Jungle is a French recruitment platform. Its Welcome Hiring Suite bundles four products: Welcome Employer Brand for employer profiles and content, Welcome Job Matching for prioritising job postings to suitable candidates, Welcome Sourcing for finding candidates, and Welcome ATS, an applicant tracking system. Employers manage recruitment from employer branding to hiring in this web-based suite. The product page does not state whether it is vendor-hosted or run on customer infrastructure.

The publishing company is CORUSCANT SAS, a French simplified joint-stock company with its registered office in Paris. Its legal notice says the website is hosted by Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL in Luxembourg, which concerns the website, not customer data. The website does not state where candidate data is stored or who owns the company. For a European organisation the company is EU-based, but the hosting location and sub-processors should be requested before use, because applicant data is personal data.
