The competition for IT talent has increased significantly in recent years – high digitalization budgets, too few education spots, and modern IT solutions at tech companies and industrial firms that are leading on a global scale have created a perfect storm in the IT industry. The sought-after candidates are passive, know their worth, and the challenges are similar in many different places in northern Europe.

Hiring managers lack available candidates when the need to hire arises, and candidates get frustrated with generic job offers when they are not available. There is a matching problem with this timing disconnect that causes stress for both hiring managers and sought-after passive candidates. Risks are high – delayed projects, reduced revenues, and an increasing, ultimately unsustainable, workload for employees.

Our clients see value in working long-term and proactively to have the right candidates available when they need them – this leads to hiring more and better candidates over time and reducing stress for hiring managers.

Recruit faster – establish a pipeline of candidates

Passive candidates in the IT industry are not uninterested in new opportunities, but their availability is crucial for when they will change jobs. That’s why we communicate with thousands of IT candidates every month: we collect data on when they finish projects and are ready to explore new opportunities. We help IT departments, IT consulting firms, and software companies establish a pipeline of candidates by combining a platform for passive candidates, data-driven processes, automated re-engagement, and the right message tailored to each employer.

This allows you to easily maintain continuous communication with sought-after roles, like Developers, IT Architects, Project Managers, BI Specialists, and other hard-to-fill roles. Hire better candidates by spreading your unique employer brand to your priority target groups and becoming top-of-mind for the candidates you want to hire – today and in the future.
