Success Story
A Silicon Valley based enterprise software company, with a presence in 40 countries, was expanding significantly and targeting growth in mid-size cities in North America.
In order to do so, it needed a team of highly-skilled and seasoned salespeople with soft skills as well developed as their technical knowledge.
Local talent with very specific qualifications in smaller markets would pose a considerable challenge.
Infosoft’s detailed market analysis, including talent pool, compensation trends, competency metrics, and location dynamics, combined with a deep understanding of the clients’ geographical markets and technology domains, allowed for the quick creation of a comprehensive sourcing & recruiting plan.
Success Story
A multinational conglomerate needed a large number of Electromechanical Engineers for one of its U.S. divisions.
After 6 months, none of its Tier 1 suppliers had identified any suitable candidates.
Infosoft secured a meeting with the client and accepted the arduous challenge of recruiting a niche skillset in an already depleted market.
Through its intake session and internal discussions, Infosoft uncluttered the job description and identified the true key components of the role.
Understanding that not all electromechanical/mechanical engineers indicate all of their proficiencies on their resume, Infosoft engaged both passive & active candidates and conducted detailed conversations to uncover total technical skillset and cultural fit.
Success Story
One of the world’s most recognized & respected software companies had an urgent need to add C++ Programmers & Developers to its team.
Neither its internal Talent Acquisition department nor its preferred staffing suppliers were successful in identifying candidates that met the requirements of the Project Managers.
Infosoft secured a meeting with the Director of Engineering to discuss the challenges, review the job description, and understand the objectives.
By digging in and understanding the why behind the need for the C++ talent, Infosoft was able to identify a disconnect between the true need and the job descriptions being utilized that had been overlooked by every stakeholder involved.
The need was Client-Server Developers not Web Application Developers.
