Case Study: a leading fintech start-up hires a Lead Database Developer with Airswift

Leading Fintech Start-up Company - Customer Case Study

Airswift worked with a leading fintech start-up company in Malaysia that needed to expand its Database Development team to support rapid growth across South East Asia. The customer had created a new Lead Database Developer role reporting to the General Manager, but after three months of searching they still had not found someone with the right mix of people management, C# scripting, and SSIS package development experience.

Airswift used a tailored talent acquisition approach, including stakeholder meetings, market mapping in Malaysia, targeted outreach, social media and job board advertising, behavioural interviews, background checks, and offer management. Within two weeks, Airswift shortlisted two highly qualified candidates, and the client hired the strongest one after two rounds of interviews; despite a counteroffer, the candidate accepted quickly, started within one month, and successfully passed probation.
