SOLUTION

How did you select Prometeo?

We met the Prometeo Team at a networking event and since then we stayed in touch, then when we started growing the team, we had a meeting and they showed us more about how they work and it matched with what we were looking for.

They perfectly understand what we need and work with agile methodologies that helped us to find the best talent in less time. What we like most about Prometeo is that we never felt they wanted to rush on the recruiting process and they always let us feel that we were all from the same team.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

SOUTHWORKS is the remote dev firm people turn to for their most complex, high-profile projects. You get great results without the endless hand-holding and do- overs outsourcing is known for. Too often when you bring in outsourced developers for help, you end up having to help them instead – so you spend all your time babysitting the project.

To make everything right, we bring a unique “own it, bring it, prove it” approach to software development. It’s about thinking beyond the reqs, finding the fastest way to the best outcomes, and always keeping you in the know. And it’s why companies such as Microsoft, 7-Eleven, Merrill Lynch, and even the Olympic Games count on us.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Prometeo?

International IT Recruitment

What were your goals for this project?

SOUTHWORKS is expanding and growing rapidly, and with more projects, we were looking for a lot of talent in various countries to double the number of developers in our team.

SOLUTION

How did you select Prometeo?

One of our hiring targets was Uruguay, and we did a research about HR Consultancy companies there and the former CEO of a Software Factory in this country referred Prometeo to us as the best option to hire quality candidates in less time.

Describe the project in detail.

They are very flexible and adapted the process to our current hiring process, uploading the information on our own Application Tracking System.

One of the challenges was to engage the candidates with the company they don´t know, because we didn´t have employeess in those countries, and people didn´t know too much about SOUTHWORKS but during the first week, Lorena had an interview with one of our founders, and they posted on youtube and spotify as a podcast, to increase our employer branding and help the candidates to know more about us.

We have been working with them since then, and we have seen a continusly improvement, we receive more and more candidates every day with a good ratio of candidates who aproves the technical challenge. They are currently providing us talent from all LATAM and they had found some talented developers from Europe in the past.

What was the team composition?

They have a marketing and social media team, that produces the podcast and youtube videos, they also have a team of recruiters. We have direct communication with Lorena, the CEO and we have a dedicated Recruitment Team Lead that help us to organize all the information and communicate with the recruiters and candidates.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We have successfully hired more than 20 developers in few months in Uruguay, Ecuador, Colombia, Costa Rica, Spain, Poland, Bolivia, Etc.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

There is also a very good flow of communication, we are always in touch to solve some questions of candidates and we had regular meetings to adjust the searches.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

the results and how quickly they understood our needs.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I think they have been improving with time. They show better results every month. The more they know us the best they do their work.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We are a software development firm providing product development and staff augmentation services for clients based in the U.S. I'm filling the role of the CEO of the company since 2020.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Prometeo?

We hired Prometeo to help us with human resources needs. Mainly in two different areas: Recruiting and HR Consultancy.

What were your goals for this engagement?

One of our goals is finding quality candidates to fill open positions in a reasonable timeframe. Another goal is to help convey, challenge, communicate, and fine-tune the culture and values that we uphold.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We looked at different HR firms. Also, we tried other providers. Compared to other options, the cost is average. However, the quality and variety of services offered are unique. We value the flexibility, quality of candidates, and the focus on continuous improvement, which presumes a perfect culture match between both companies.

Describe the engagement in detail.

The HR Consultancy service is tailored to the current company needs. E.g., They can help you by facilitating discussion among your executives to establish the company values. Or they can help you discover how to prevent and resolve concerns among the company personnel. The HR Consultancy services and Recruitment services don't work in silos. Here is where we find added value. The insights gathered from HR Consultancy services are brought to Recruitment services, enabling them to look for candidates who qualify for the given position and match with the culture and values we hold. After defining a job description, they will start gathering candidates adjusting the effort depending on necessity. Then we start receiving prescreened resumes with a detailed report of a preliminary phone interview. They will also collect recruiting metrics and provide you with key insight in order to improve the overall recruitment process.

What was the team composition?

We have direct contact with a Senior Consultant which acts also as an Account Manager. While there are open positions we keep our communication channels open with the recruitment team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the engagement that demonstrate progress or success?

From a recruitment standpoint, before starting to work with Prometeo, we used to have a lot of non-valuable interviews. There were many cases in which we examined our recruitment process because the time invested in interviews was not efficient. Once we started working with them, the process evolved, and the rate of candidates that met our requirements boosted. In cases where we needed to fill many positions at once, they were able to scale their efforts. Once we agreed to hire the applicant, the psychological profile helped us understand how the candidate will fit within the team and the organization.

The HR Consultancy services helped us shape the vision we had for this company. Also, they mentored us on management, communication, and soft skills. They were also able to accompany our day-to-day continuous improvement model, always providing their perspective, making insightful questions, challenging our ideas, and being part of our company.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Workflow and engagement are incredibly effective. We don't have a settled recurrent meeting in order to review the quality of services. In fact, they proactively ask questions that might open new considerations as you work with them. They manage expectations very well. They log and scrutinize the entire recruitment process, allowing them to foresee whether they will meet expectations or not.

What did you find most impressive about this vendor?

The quality of candidates has been excellent. They adapt very well to the processes tailored to our needs. They are versatile and always looking to add more value.

Are there any areas for improvement?

There are always areas for improvement in any organization. Thankfully all of the feedback we once had was received with gratitude and addressed.
