Our client is a renowned German unicorn known for its innovation in the online fashion retail sector. Evolving from a traditional catalog business into a thriving e-commerce and marketplace powerhouse, the company boasts a significant presence in the fashion and footwear market. With a strong focus on technology and online marketing, they have set the standard for digital sales efficiency and customer engagement. Continual growth and expansion have positioned them as leaders in their industry, keen on integrating cutting-edge solutions to enhance their operations.

The Challenge

Facing rapid expansion, the client needed to quickly scale their development capabilities. They sought a diverse range of skilled IT specialists, including front-end, back-end, and full-stack developers, as well as experts in DevOps and cybersecurity, to support multiple internal development teams. Their rigorous recruitment process demanded top-tier candidates, leading them to seek out a partner capable of delivering exceptional recruitment results within a tight timeframe.

The Solution

We collaborated closely with the client's HR and technical teams, aligning precisely with their recruitment criteria. By engaging in on-site training sessions and consultations with key stakeholders, including the CTO, we gained a comprehensive understanding of the desired technical skills and cultural fit for prospective candidates. Over a 12-month period, our strategic recruitment efforts successfully secured 20 highly skilled IT professionals, meeting the client's diverse development needs. Our ability to deliver quality candidates efficiently demonstrated our expertise in building robust, world-class software development teams.

The Results

The partnership resulted in the successful recruitment of a complete, high-performing software development team that greatly enhanced the client's operational capabilities. Many of the specialists we placed continue to contribute significantly to the company several years later, highlighting the sustained value of our recruitment solutions.
