Financial Services Company

A Fortune 500 financial services giant faced a significant challenge in sourcing qualified associate level full-stack software engineers across various departments.

The company not only needed these engineers to start as contingent workers but also aimed to transition them seamlessly into full-time employees. Moreover, diversity requirements and the need for innovative, forward-thinking individuals were critical considerations that conventional recruitment approaches failed to address.
