Case study · Staff augmentation

30 MERN developers hired in under two weeks.

A technology partner leading the rebuild of a financial client’s customer-facing fintech application could not start until it had 30 MERN developers. TekRecruiter reached more than 1,500 MERN developers in minutes, screened more than 700 in three days and shared 50 interested candidates; 30 were hired in under two weeks.

The engagement

The start date depended on hiring.

The challenge

One of TekRecruiter’s technology business partners was leading the redesign of its financial client’s main customer-facing fintech application, built on the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React and Node.js). The project’s start date depended on one thing: recruiting 30 MERN developers.

What we did

We reached more than 1,500 MERN developers within minutes by email and text. Over the next three days we screened more than 700 of them, then shared the 50 who were qualified and interested.

The result

Thirty developers were hired in under two weeks, the largest single deployment in TekRecruiter’s history, and the project was completed within one year.

Stack

MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js (MERN).
