As the pandemic accelerated, Resolver experienced rapid growth, driven by a heightened demand for risk-averse software solutions. With organizations increasingly prioritizing risk management, Resolver found itself at the forefront of this industry shift.
The surge in demand necessitated a significant expansion of their team to sustain their exponential growth. In response, Resolver strategically hired 10 senior software engineers to fortify their systems and ensure they could effectively meet the evolving needs of their expanding customer base.
Resolver faced the imperative task of filling over 60 positions across various departments, spanning software engineering, sales, marketing, customer support, product, design, and more.
The sheer volume of hiring proved challenging for their internal talent teams, particularly in the realm of Software Engineering. The urgency to fill these roles was compounded by the intensely competitive talent market, especially for individuals skilled in the latest technologies—NodeJS, Typescript, Golang, PostgreSQL, and AWS.
Recognizing the need for external expertise, Resolver sought a talent partner capable of swiftly navigating the competitive landscape and securing top-notch candidates tailored to their specific technological requirements.
