Time-Sensitive Growth Leads to a Long-Term, Consultative Relationship
IT Recruiting, HR Recruiting, RPO
Overview
Hirewell was initially engaged by a venture capital-backed software company to assist with numerous mid-level, technical roles. The client struggled to add top-tier technical employees and needed to add staff across a variety of technology functions. After eight months and over 14 placements, we worked with the client to create a custom RPO solution that would reduce their spend and hiring time. A dedicated Hirewell account manager worked on-site to facilitate the hiring of an addition 14 employees across sales, marketing, human resources and technology in just four months.
Results
We built a recruiting process and database that allowed the client to eventually bring some of the recruiting process in house, with our HR services assisting them in staffing their HR division. Our IT services continue to assist the client with recruiting top talent.
Hirewell matched this company with over 30 talented people over the course of a two and a half year engagement that included our IT, HR and RPO service lines. Positions placed included:
Results Lead to Stronger Relationship through Transition
IT Recruiting, Executive Placement
Hirewell was engaged by a publicly traded marketing firm on a contingency basis to assist with several IT hires. In time, the firm asked Hirewell to find a senior-level staff member, a Director of Data Warehouse/Architecture, who was identified quickly and started with the firm within five weeks of engagement. Shortly after the hire was made, the marketing firm was taken private and a new CIO was introduced.
In a time of significant transition, the firm acknowledged the value and efficiency that Hirewell brought to their recruiting process. We began an exclusive relationship with the firm to help define, identify and place/replace their information technology team that was moving its operation from Florida to Chicago.
Hirewell helped the firm develop descriptions, compensation structures and hiring strategies for each position. We delivered 18 key hires ahead of schedule, within a six-month period of time, including:

Over the course of the relationship, Hirewell has matched the client with multiple roles at all levels, including:

A Big Need for Big Talent
Hirewell’s relationship with this client, a trading software firm, dates back to 2006. The firm needed to find over 20 strategic technology hires following their acquisition by a global investment bank.
The hires that the client required were for highly technical, industry-specific positions. Hirewell partnered with them to find the talent they needed, including:

Hirewell Flexibility Helps Firm Prosper Through Times of Change
IT Recruiting
An early stage consulting firm engaged Hirewell to help them recruit technical and functional resources, including subject matter experts in multiple industries and technologies. We initially found full-time employees, but as their business accelerated, the market demanded that the firm rethink this approach. Hirewell acted as their internal staffing arm, and staffed multiple, large-scale projects using a hybrid approach of permanent hires augmented with contract and/or contract-to-hire resources.
As our client’s business boomed, they landed multiple, large, technology system migration projects at Fortune 500 clients. They needed to staff the management and technology teams for the project in short order.
We were not only able to deliver the more than 25 highly qualified, technical candidates, but we were able to do it in less than thirty days. The success of this project was the foundation of a long-term partnership that is still thriving. Our client experienced tremendous growth, and was able to add top-notch staff to meet that growth thanks to Hirewell. This success led to the acquisition of our client by a global technology consulting firm. To date, Hirewell has filled over 35 positions including:
