Recently, we partnered with Vicert, a leading HealthTech IT solutions company – We worked with their Development Center in Belgrade, on expanding their team with Senior Golang Developers and other essential roles.
Read how we turned a complex tech recruitment task into a success story, considering that Golang is a niche technology.
Understanding the Vicert’s Requirements
Our collaboration with Vicert began with a clear but ambitious goal: to fill both technical and non-technical positions in their growing team. These roles included:
- Developers specializing in Golang
- QA Engineers
- Project Managers
- Account Managers
- .NET Developers
- React Developers
The most pressing challenge? Finding Senior Golang Developers within a limited talent pool in the tech industry. Initially, the search was confined to Serbia, aligning with the client’s preference for regional hires.
Challenges We Faced
As we delved deeper into the recruitment process, it became clear that the market for Golang specialists in Serbia was highly competitive and limited. The key challenges included:
- A niche skill, Golang is a relatively specialized programming language with fewer experienced professionals available globally.
- Limiting the search to Serbia significantly reduced the candidate pool. We identified an opportunity to broaden the search.
