Our Goal
Our goal was to hiring 3 or 4 Senior engineers, possibly with an enthusiastic Junior Engineer, as quick as possible.
We’re a fully remote company and can hire people from anywhere. Using LinkedIn was a waste of time for us and we weren’t satisfied with the talent pool we found on there. We were looking for a tech hiring solution as well as a start-up with an understanding of the space, and cord ticked both of these boxes.
The quality of the engineers on cord is really good. Most people are what they say they are - they’re experienced, they’re not time-wasters and are truly looking for a change of roles.
A steady stream
We receive a few messages everyday and actively look at new engineers joining the various streams we’ve set up for each of our positions. Once you get the initial work done and filter people out, you only need to have a quick check each morning.
Authentic conversations
The response rates are really good. The conversations you’re having on cord are quite informal.
You can get an idea of personalities quite quickly based on how they use the messaging tool. That aspect of cord is cool because you’re not trading emails or in a formal email loop. Communication feels more personal or ‘whatsappy’ quickly as you’re coordinating things with a potential candidate.
