View websiteView cord profileOur Goal
We joined cord looking to hire for our Full Stack Engineering positions.
Our Situation
Back and forth
Previously we’d tried hiring using recruitment agencies, but the process wasn’t efficient and a hire wasn’t guaranteed, even though there was still a fee. We needed a tool that would help us take control of our hiring process.
Using cord
All the info, up-front
On cord, we’re able to set-up streams for each of roles - this means we get a clear picture of Engineers that are looking to switch roles and that fit our open positions. We know people are looking for a new opportunity and we can see the details that will help us decide whether they’re right for us such as their location, primary and secondary technical skills, salary expectations and previous experience. Having the info we need up-front means we can identify and message the Engineers we want quickly and efficiently.
More responses, less time
Because we know there is already a match on skills and salary, when we come to message Engineers, the rate of response we get back is great. Typically 90-95% of the messages we send get a positive response back, this in turn shortens our hiring process to just a couple of weeks.
