Issue

The company had a tough time finding new people to join their team. Despite persistent efforts spanning several months, SBTech had no luck in filling 20 positions.

The outsourced HR agencies that SBTech initially worked with didn't show the desired results either.

The company urgently needed new developers as some strategic business processes inside the company were on hold.

Solution

The SBTech team hired four recruiting providers, including Alcor. We engaged our professional headhunters and a dedicated account manager to provide 24/7 client support. This team put into action their best research techniques to meet the tight deadline of 1 month.

Once all the details were ironed out, we started full-scale tech recruitment activities using Executive Search among existing competitors. While we found many promising candidates, the recruitment process could not cross the finish line. 10 out of 20 vacancies were still unfilled.

So, we decided to change our strategy by focusing on the two toughest-to-fill positions. After we shared our findings with the client, they reconsidered the requirements for these vacancies and we finally managed to close them. And the work went on.

Results

16 Valley-caliber hires, 1 month
The Alcor team filled 16 out of 20 vacancies in just 1 month — more than three other hired HR agencies together. This allowed the client to finally resume all key business processes.
Top 10% tech talent
Alcor's tech recruitment team successfully hired skilled senior and higher-level .NET developers. Our client continues to collaborate with these developers, as Alcor's clients enjoy a 98% talent retention rate on average.
Effective tech hiring
Alcor's recruiters needed fewer than 8 CVs to secure an offer, with an impressive 98.6% probation period pass rate. Thanks to our headhunters' precise matching, developers typically stay with our clients for 2.5 years.
Vacancies closed from 1st CV
Our headhunters filled over 15% of all SBTech vacancies from the first CV — a WOW result from our client's point of view!
Optimized expenses
SBTech now enjoys low expenses on payroll and accounting services. Why? The PIT tax in Ukraine is only 5% while Alcor's Employer of Record service is cheaper than in other EoR providers.
Full team integration
The developers we hired for SBTech absorbed clients' corporate culture and worked hand-in-hand without management issues with the in-house team. Thus, just like other clients, SBTech enjoyed a 98% talent retention rate.
