About the company

Zappyrent is a medium- and long-term rental platform that runs the end-to-end renting process, from listings to contracts, deposits, and monthly payments. Zappyrent also markets protections for landlords, including “rent paid” style guarantees. The company operates across a long list of Italian cities and publishes platform scale claims like thousands of listed properties and hundreds of cities covered. Zappyrent is based in Italy, with Milan featured heavily across the company’s public materials.

Locations and presence

Zappyrent highlights Milan as a core base (including an “office in the center of Milan” in careers benefits). Zappyrent also lists many operating cities across Italy and advertises remote as an option on the careers page.

Palpable Score

48.1

/ 100

Zappyrent has some entry points for early-career people through runner-style roles and historical junior hiring signals, but there is little visible, current role-by-role early-career recruitment. The biggest constraints are limited pay transparency and mixed candidate experience signals, alongside thin public evidence about junior progression and retention.

Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

10.0

/ 20

The company actively recruits “runners” to show properties to tenants, framed as a lightweight, app-driven role with no paperwork.
Zappyrent has public interview entries that reference junior roles like “Product designer junior,” which signals that junior hiring has happened.
The company’s careers page currently shows “no open positions” beyond the runner pathway and general CV email, which limits verified 0–3 year access today.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

11.0

/ 20

The company provides a clear application route for runners (form-based) and for other roles (direct email), which is straightforward for applicants.
Zappyrent has candidate interview feedback describing a home task for technical hiring (NestJS service build), which is a concrete and role-relevant assessment type.
The company has public interview feedback pointing to weak communication and professionalism during hiring, which pulls down fairness confidence for early-career candidates.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

8.7

/ 20

The company does not publish onboarding, mentoring, 1:1 structure, or review cadence on the careers page, so early-career support is mostly unverified.
Zappyrent’s runner pitch focuses on operational simplicity (no paperwork, everything digital) rather than training, shadowing, or coaching.
The company shows university partnerships on the “Who we are” page, but there is no public explanation of internships, graduate pathways, or structured learning tied to those partnerships.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

9.7

/ 20

The company publicly lists benefits such as flexible working hours, work-from-home possibility, and stock options, which are meaningful stability signals for a small company.
Zappyrent does not publish salary ranges or compensation examples on the careers page, which caps pay fairness assessment.
The company offers a mix of perk-style benefits (snacks, Friday beers, office location), but there is no public detail on healthcare, parental leave, or pension equivalents for comparing offers.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

8.7

/ 20

The company has a mid-range Glassdoor rating with a “would recommend” rate around half, suggesting mixed employee outcomes rather than consistently positive early-career experience.
Zappyrent has a low average interview “positive experience” share on Glassdoor, which points to a risk area for candidate experience outcomes.
The company lacks published early-career outcomes like junior promotion examples, 12–24 month retention patterns, or internal mobility stories, so outcomes scoring is limited by missing data.
