Our Experience Recruiting with Graft: Hark
Back to Case Studies

When we look to grow our team, there’s a lot to consider. Recruiting for the tech industry has many requirements.

We’re an IoT start-up based in Leeds offering an environmental monitoring platform, called Hark, to a whole lot of industries.

Firstly, this means we’re on the lookout for candidates who have a willingness to dive in, get to grips with the company mission and bring fresh perspectives and ideas. Secondly, we’re looking for people with passion and aptitude; and finally, there’s the actual roles we were looking for: a software engineer, a UI/UX designer and a data scientist. With all the requirements we had, we needed a helping hand.

 

 

Graft’s Incredible Network

Our team were introduced to Melanie Parker, Graft’s founder and director, through the business-networking scene in Leeds.

When we met, the first few times, I knew she’d be our go-to. It was obvious Graft had an eye for talent and the ability to match the right people with the right businesses. We had heard great stuff from other companies who had used the Graft service, too, so we knew we had to utilise her skills.

 

Getting to Work

Our experience with Graft was unlike anything we would’ve seen with other recruiters.

Melanie spent a lot of time talking to us. She wanted to figure out what the people are like at Hark and pinpoint the culture and environment at the office to ensure anyone she’d put forward would be a match both professionally and personally. Graft offered us an incredibly personal service and we knew we’d be matched with the right people from the get-go. We were right.

 

Successful Talent Recruitment

Graft handed our Hark staff three applications and we took them straight to interview based on just their CVs. We got 3 for 3. All of the candidates Graft put forward were an unbelievable match—it’s no wonder their talent recruitment services are so popular. 

We’re now working proudly and excellently with our new software engineer, UI/UX designer and data scientist. We couldn’t recommend Graft’s rapid, personable and on-point recruitment services more.

 

We’re well connected with the best tech, graduate talent and can put the right people in front of you. If you’re a tech company seeking skilled potential employees, don’t hesitate to get in touch with graft today.
