<\/span>Manan(M): What are your major recruiting challenges?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kabandi(K):<\/strong> We\u2019ve been growing fast. We are currently doubling our revenue every year. This kind of growth comes with its own set of problems. But recruiting remains our biggest challenge and a top priority. Currently, we are rapidly scaling up our sales and engineering departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We faced several challenges. The major ones being<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No full-time recruiter on the team<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At Omnify, we believe in objective evaluations so that we can minimize bias in our hiring process. For this, we have instituted that for every position, we will send our candidates a take-home test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because we don\u2019t have someone who could coordinate these activities, it wasn\u2019t easy. We struggled for a few months trying to streamline our recruiting process<\/a>. A lack of full-time recruiters put immense pressure on team members with admin tasks. Coordinating and managing recruiting activities was a huge drain on our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sourcing qualified candidates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is not easy to source qualified developers. We decided we needed to give different channels a try and experimented with them. It turned out that LinkedIn as a channel worked best for us. So we went heavy with that and started posting sponsored job postings on LinkedIn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting the team together to recruit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This was by far the biggest challenge. We were tracking our progress in different spreadsheets and our process was all over the place. It is hard to keep track of candidates and collaborate with your team members on spreadsheets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>M: What made you choose Recruiterflow?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

K:<\/strong>\u00a0As I said we had a few challenges. Before we checked to\u00a0recruiting software<\/a>, we zeroed in on the top priorities that we had. Our top priorities were,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
