About Thought Machine
Our Goal
We needed to expand our Engineering Team in line with our company growth plans. This meant hiring Engineers across multiple disciples and experience levels, at scale.
Scaling Our Team
Having received significant investment from Lloyds Bank, we needed to scale our team quickly. We had multiple requirements at Junior to Senior level across all our technical positions, including Front-End, Back End and Site Reliability Engineers.
Quality and Quantity
The technical bar at ThoughtMachine is incredibly high, and we needed to hire at scale. So it was really important to us to use a product that provided quality technical people in a high volume.
Highly Responsive Candidates
The immediate value we found in cord was that the response rates were much higher than any other platform we have used, and there is a volume of hard-to-find technical skill sets available. Specifically for us, this includes JavaScript. Java, Python and Go Engineers.
We’ve found hundreds of qualified candidates and our response rate from candidates on cord is 52% positive.
Saving Time
Being able to save personalised templates, being immediately notified of relevant candidates and managing everything in one place makes cord incredibly time effective to use.
The time we save sourcing, allows us to spend more time actually speaking to qualified technical candidates.
