Frequently asked questions about tech recruitment

 

For hirers

How long does it typically take to fill a tech role?

We present a shortlist of qualified candidates as quickly as 2 working days. Hiring a contractor is often faster than hiring a permanent employee, so the complete hiring process, from initial brief to offer acceptance, can take anywhere from 2 days to 4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the requirement.

What makes tech recruitment different?

This requires deep understanding of specific technologies, frameworks and development methodologies. Our specialist consultants maintain active involvement in tech communities across Manchester, Leeds, London and beyond. This ensures we correctly understand both technical requirements and cultural fit.

How do you verify technical skills?

We use a multi-layered approach combining technical screening, portfolio review and practical assessments. All recruiters conduct initial evaluations, after which we can arrange technical tests or pair programming sessions based on your requirements.

What's your success rate with hard-to-fill positions?

Compared to other recruiters, we maintain a high success rate. Extensive networks in the Insurtech, Greentech, Healthtech, and Fintech sectors allow us to access passive and exclusive candidates who aren't actively job hunting.
