Our hiring strategy
We addressed these challenges by matching Typetone's strengths with our extensive experience in headhunting and job marketing. We began with an in-depth analysis of Typetone's needs and developed a custom strategy that not only focused on posting vacancies on relevant job boards but also on actively headhunting potential candidates through platforms like LinkedIn.
This combined approach ensured that we were visible to actively searching candidates and also caught the attention of passive candidates who could appreciate the growth opportunities at Typetone.
