Northbound Talent
A concept for growing a specialist team quickly while keeping hiring decisions reversible until fit is proven on the job.
Challenge
A US company needs to grow a cloud engineering team within a quarter but doesn't want to commit to every permanent hire before seeing people in the role.
Approach
A contract-to-hire programme with a shared role scorecard, structured technical screening and scheduled fit reviews with hiring managers.
Solution
- Role scorecards agreed with each hiring manager
- Targeted sourcing across relevant talent pools
- Structured technical and communication screening
- Contract-to-hire offers with defined review points
- Conversion and feedback tracking
Technology
- Applicant tracking workflow
- Structured interview scorecards
- Shared hiring dashboard
Results
This is a demonstration project, so there are no client results to report. If delivered, success would be measured by:
- Time to fill
- Contract-to-permanent conversion
- Hiring-manager satisfaction
