Pain points

The Challenge

In the summer of 2021, Contentsquare post Series E funding of $500m to scale and accelerate onto new markets; decided to launch a new hub in Barcelona. Scaling Data Engineering and Full Stack Engineering in Paris became problematic, the Barcelona hub was going to be the answer to launching new products!

Contentsquare whilst being a renowned tech environment and employer of choice in Paris for Computer Scientists. Was relatively unknown in the Spanish tech market. To attract the best Engineers in Spain, a compelling and engaging outreach program was first required to be designed.

What we did

The Result

Finding and identifying the best talent is arguably the hardest challenge in any recruiting cycle! After understanding the technical requirements of speed or processing events and the amount of data being processed in real-time and batch processing. We were able to very quickly identify Industries, Companies and Environments that will provide the right experience for Engineers to quickly onboard in Contentsquare and add value!

The introduced pool included specialists in machine learning, software engineering, robotics, and other related disciplines, effectively addressing Wayve's hiring needs.Moreover, Techruiter ensured a robust diversity ratio of 40% among the sourced candidates.

This initiative promoted inclusion and broader perspectives in the hiring process, aligning with Wayve's commitment to diversity and innovation.Their bi-weekly sprints proved to be an efficient approach to manage this complex recruitment process. By tracking key performance indicators such as candidate acceptance rate, interview success rate, and time to fill, Techruiter was able to maintain a high degree of efficiency and effectiveness throughout the hiring campaign.

Utilising Academia and personal projects via GitHub allowed us to identify further talent; that may not necessarily be available on LinkedIn or be employed at established companies.

This data was mapped in Spain and across key technical hubs in Europe to offer the chance to relocate to Spain.
