While in the past you’d need to sift through 20 resumes and schedule 10 phone interviews to find a developer who still might not deliver, Their internal team of engineers will hand-pick vetted developers  for you to interview based on your needs.
Their clients, on average, conduct just 1.7 interviews  for each hire made. By being introduced to just a few custom-selected developers (like the one on the right), their personalized process will save you time and money.
“The demand for Software Engineers is higher than ever. A lack of talent is impeding the success of US businesses.”

Everything about the traditional hiring process is slow and costly. Even after you’ve wasted hundreds of hours, if you

satisfaction and offer a no-risk trial period of up to two weeks. Don’t waste hundreds of hours on your hiring
