The Goal

As GOLD AVENUE experienced exponential growth during the pandemic, they faced the challenge of hiring talented people while adhering to social distancing regulations. The main priority was to quickly hire the right tech talents to join their team.

Vincent Mattart, the CTO of GOLD AVENUE, was looking for top-notch Ruby Developers. Of course, the talent pool for this specialization is very narrow, and his first attempts to recruit through job boards proved unsuccessful.

Vincent's top priority was to recruit exceptional Ruby developers who would be a good fit for the team. He also aimed to significantly shorten the recruitment process, ensuring that all parties involved saved time and effort.

TieTalent's Expertise

A Cost-Effective and Time-Saving Solution

After an intro call in November 2021 with our Client Executive, Sofia, Vincent was impressed with the conditions TieTalent offered, especially the low commission rate, which was crucial for their startup budget.

Vincent shared that TieTalent definitely stood out thanks to the professionalism and dedication of Jovana, the COO & Co-Founder of TieTalent, who was also in the role of a Talent Agent for GOLD AVENUE at the time. She understood perfectly the kind of profiles the Tech & Product teams at GOLD AVENUE were looking for and managed to always send relevant talents.

From his experience working with TieTalent, Vincent also shared that he found the platform to be informative, with a good overview and lots of information about the candidates.

Reactivity and Personalized Approach

Streamlining the hiring process was made possible with TieTalent for Vincent and GOLD AVENUE. Between November 2021 and November 2022, they hired seven new tech team members.

With the help of Sofia and Jovana, Vincent was able to find a Ruby Tech Lead, two Ruby on Rails Developers, a React.js Team Lead, two ReactJS Developers, and a UX/UI Designer. Helping them find the right talent efficiently and effectively not only saved them time but also enhanced their overall productivity across departments.

Their primary objective is to simplify the recruitment process by seeking out skilled individuals who share the company's mindset and work harmoniously with the team, so everyone can experience the benefits of “Savings made simple”.
