When they contacted us, summer was around the corner and the situation was critical: the technical team was at its limit and they urgently needed to hire. They had already tried another agency, but the profiles coming through did not fit, no technical alignment and no real understanding of the need. To complicate things further, Miguel Ángel, their CTO, was about to go on holiday. We did not let that stop the process.
Before starting the search we met the team to understand exactly what they needed, where previous candidates had been falling short, and what their technical test involved, so we could shape the process around it.
With the CTO away, we got to work: an intensive search, hundreds of professionals contacted, and a rigorous first filter. Only a small share met both the technical and the cultural bar.
By the time he was back from holiday we had nine solid candidates ready for evaluation, some of them already through the technical test. Two passed it comfortably. They had planned to hire one person, but both performed well and the workload made it obvious: hiring both was the strategic call. Both accepted.
StartGo did not just solve an urgent problem, they went into a period of high growth with two key people in place.
