The ability to have a cost-effective platform that’s so fast and efficient is really refreshing
Our Situation
Inundated with Applications
We were overwhelmed with hundreds of applications for each role, which made it difficult to quickly identify the right candidates. This caused our time-to-hire to stretch to three months, hindering our ability to scale our team and keep up with the fast-paced demands of our business.
Using cord
Faster Time to Hire
Cost Savings
Enhanced Recruitment Efficiency
Access to High-Quality Candidates
Effective Candidate Filtering
cord allowed us to access pre-loaded, pre-verified candidates, which cut our hiring process in half. Before using cord, it took us up to three months to fill a role, but with cord, we managed to hire in under four weeks. This rapid turnaround was crucial for maintaining our growth momentum and meeting client demands.
Cost Savings
Previously, recruitment agencies charged us 10-20% of a candidate's first-year salary, equating to £6,000-£12,000 per hire. In comparison, cord was 20 times more cost-effective than using agencies, making it a much more affordable solution for our startup and allowing us to allocate resources more efficiently.
Enhanced Recruitment Efficiency
The ability to filter candidates by specific skills, experience, and salary expectations allowed us to quickly find the right talent. Instead of sifting through hundreds of applications, we could efficiently identify, shortlist, and directly approach potential hires, reducing our time-to-hire by 50%.
Access to High-Quality Candidates
Through cord, we made two direct hires, filling every vacancy we had since joining the platform. The candidates we found were not only technically skilled but also a great fit for our team culture. This has had a direct impact on our ability to deliver new software updates more regularly, strengthening our product and client satisfaction.
