About TradingHub
TradingHub is an award winning FinTech company building cutting edge, AI assisted, trade data analysis software for the financial services industry. Due to the ongoing success of their market abuse and rogue trading detection products they have doubled the size of their team since 2015. They hire object oriented programmers across all seniority.
Our Goal
We wanted to grow our Engineering rapidly. It meant hiring a diverse set of technical skills into different functions. We needed to hire at volume, without dropping our high quality standards.
Growing our Team
TradingHub is undergoing a period of significant growth due to the demand from customers for our trade data analysis software, specifically our market abuse surveillance tool (MAST).
This meant growing our Engineering team by 50% this year. We needed to hire into all our Engineering teams.
57% Positive Response Rates
We found cord incredibly easy to use, with a simple and intuitive UI. There is a real volume of high quality and highly responsive technical candidates.
cord makes it easy to find people with specific technology skills, as soon as they start looking for work. This meant 57% of the candidates we have reached out to have responded positively to our messages.
Cost & Time Savings
The high response rates has meant we have been able to all but stop using LinkedIn for sourcing, which has been a huge time saver for our hiring team.
Not paying hiring fees when we hire someone on cord is a huge cost saving, especially when we compare it to our usual cost of hiring an Engineer through an agency.
