This is pivotal talent for any organization. It’s especially mission-critical for a high-tech company where revenue and enterprise objectives depend on rapid fulfillment within these skill categories. Finally, all candidates needed to meet the highest levels of quality.
The Solution
The Seattle marketplace is intensely competitive, with a number of highly desirable employer brands all striving to engage the same candidates. Softworld deployed a competitive sourcing and recruiting strategy, using senior-level dedicated software recruiters within Seattle and other key U.S. markets. The client team invested up to four hours each day, Tuesday through Thursday, to interview and work through the candidate selection process. This structure helped to ensure that no candidates were lost to lag time. Overall, the seamless performance between the Softworld and client teams was exemplary.
The Results
Together with the client, Softworld fulfilled all 40 positions, while achieving superlative levels of performance. In summary, the final submittal-to-hire ratio was 3-to-1. The interview-to-offer ratio was 2-to-1. All but two candidates were placed from the local market, also delivering a faster and more cost-efficient solution to the client.
