Before: The challenge without Instaffo

As a provider with an exciting product, remote culture, and sustainable approach, Chargecloud was urgently looking for tech talent but couldn't compete with large corporations. Rising salaries in the developer sector made recruiting particularly difficult. Active sourcing failed due to a lack of capacity, leaving only headhunters and limited job platforms.

Negative consequences

  • Difficulty in recruiting highly qualified developers due to rising salaries
  • Limited recruiting capacity, no active sourcing possible
  • Dependence on headhunters and unsuitable channels
  • Time-consuming profile review by hiring managers during the first call
  • Lack of differentiation in the highly competitive tech market

With Instaffo, Chargecloud has made its recruiting process more efficient and broader. The platform has become central, especially for developer roles. The direct approach and straightforward matching process have also helped to attract talented individuals who were not actively looking for a job.
