Case Study: Waterly hires its first senior software engineer in under 20 days with Woven

Waterly hires its first senior software engineer in under 20 days with Woven

Waterly, a startup, faced the challenge of hiring senior software engineers while its small engineering team was overwhelmed by the dual pressures of meeting product goals and managing the entire recruitment process. The engineering manager was spending significant time on sourcing and screening, making it difficult to build out the team efficiently. They turned to the vendor Woven and its Woven Inbound service for a solution.

By using Woven, Waterly gained access to a stream of pre-vetted candidates, which eliminated the need for initial sourcing and screening. Woven also provided consulting on salary bands and interview practices. This allowed Waterly to move qualified candidates directly to the final technical interview stage. The result was that Waterly hired its first Senior Software Engineer in under 20 days, with a second offer extended a week later. The solution saved the team 5-10 hours per week and enabled the new hire to contribute immediately, increasing overall productivity.
