Where We Work Remotely is strong

WWR does one thing well: it reaches candidates who specifically want remote work. As a distribution channel for a remote role it's a strong, targeted choice, and the candidate audience is exactly who remote-first teams want to reach.

Where Digital Arrow wins

A board reaches candidates; it doesn't run your hiring. With Digital Arrow, applicants become structured records in a real ATS, screened with async video interviews and AI scoring — ideal for remote hiring across time zones without scheduling calls. When you hire remotely, e-signature contracts, onboarding, PTO, timesheets and client invoicing are all built in, and the platform is EU-hosted (Frankfurt). WWR brings the remote audience; Digital Arrow is the system that hires and manages them.

They are not mutually exclusive

Use both: advertise remote roles on We Work Remotely for reach, then route applications into Digital Arrow so async video interviews and a real pipeline do the screening — especially valuable when candidates are spread across time zones.
