Overview

We search for, screen and shortlist technology candidates for roles you hire permanently. You interview and decide; the people join your payroll.

For companies that need to hire QA engineers, developers, DevOps engineers or project and product managers and want the search handled by people who do the work themselves.

Problems we address

  • Open roles that stay open for months.
  • Too many applications and too few that fit.
  • No one in-house who can judge a technical candidate.

Scope of service

  • QA and test automation engineers
  • Software developers
  • DevOps engineers
  • Project and product managers
  • Technical screening
