Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

With the help of ITExpert, we hired over 47 IT specialists across a range of roles, including .NET and Apex developers, Data and QA engineers, Business and Data Analysts, and others. The agency’s team took time to understand our tech environment and the kind of expertise we were looking for. The recruiters and the leadership team were flexible when our priorities shifted and always stayed aligned with our evolving needs. They communicated clearly and consistently, which helped us move forward faster. 
We also appreciated their thoughtful approach to pre-screening candidates — it saved our internal team a lot of time. From first contact to final hire, the process was efficient, clear, and easy to manage on our side.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The successful hiring of over 47 qualified tech professionals was a clear indicator of the project’s effectiveness. Many of the positions we filled were time-sensitive and required niche technical expertise, which ITExpert managed to deliver. The hiring process was well-coordinated, allowing us to strengthen our technical team and maintain momentum on the internal projects.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

 From the very beginning, ITExpert showed a clear understanding of how to run the recruitment process efficiently. They didn’t just follow a standard routine — they adjusted their approach based on our feedback and the specifics of each role. We always felt that the team was fully engaged and responsive, and any questions or requests on our side were handled quickly.

The communication was smooth thanks to the agency’s account managers, who stayed close to the process and kept everything transparent and easy to follow. The recruiters were focused, detail-oriented, and consistently provided strong candidates without overwhelming us with irrelevant profiles. It was also valuable to have Stas and Nick involved — their oversight added clarity and helped maintain steady progress throughout the entire collaboration.

What was your primary form of communication with ITExpert?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

 What we found unique about ITExpert was their ability to treat each vacancy as a separate challenge rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. They invested time in understanding the context behind each role, which helped them deliver highly relevant candidates. This level of personalization is something you don’t often see in recruitment partners.  

Are there any areas for improvement or something ITExpert could have done differently?

In a few cases, we would have appreciated faster feedback on why certain candidates didn’t pass their internal screening. A bit more transparency at that stage could help align expectations more quickly and fine-tune the search.
