CNA International IT

Background
IDS is a widely known and rapidly growing European company in the dancewear industry. Due to its recent growth, they’d started to seek talented and driven developers to provide a perfectly distributed digital presence. IDS opened their Kyiv office in December of 2016, and made an inquiry with CNA to hire a number of professionals for some key positions.

Challenge
“It is always thrilling to start a new story from scratch. We challenged CNA to set up our new office in Ukraine by providing reliable legal and accounting support. Together with their partner Business Support, CNA provided us with consultancy and created a step by step launch strategy. The second part was to build up a strong development team; firstly, however, we had to find an outstanding technical “engine” for the company - a Magento Team Lead. Discovering a perfect match within a tough deadline? CNA can handle it."

Solution
“CNA clearly understood the difficulty in searching for a senior specialist within a tight timeframe and decided to look for appropriate candidates within their network. A personal touch brought plenty of recommendations and we had finally discovered the right professional.”

Result
“All in all, with CNA’s help, we efficiently closed such key positions as General Manager and Magento Team Lead, while filling a few mid-level vacancies as well. The new branch had gotten off to a successful start and has kept growing since. After such smooth cooperation, we became CNA’s loyal client.”

Background
An industry-leading database solutions company, which rapidly conquers new markets does not pause its search for new hires. Percona is based in the USA but operates via a worldwide network of developers. Flexible hours and remote work make this client highly desirable for all potential candidates. But only the most skilled ones are bound to succeed.
Challenge
“Percona offers numerous benefits and is a real challenge to those interested in working for us. Remote work requires hiring very reliable, self-driven and motivated developers, technical writers and managers. As a result, many job openings contain up to 10 interview stages, which required CNA’s recruiters to be in touch with their submitted candidates nearly every day. Personal assistance at its best!”
Solution
“CNA worked with a limited list of companies in order to find potential candidates, who would be a perfect fit. There was more head-hunting than recruiting involved because we were looking for reliable professionals via recommendations. In due course, we managed to close the positions of C++ developers, technical writer and product managers with professionals located in various European countries.”
Result
“CNA has been collaborating with us for over three years and they relish the challenging positions we provide. We are famous for having low attrition and employee turnover rates and we are happy that CNA helps us support this rightful indicator of our business health.”

Background
The beat goes on. The world’s leading developer and supplier of audio signal processing tools, Waves Audio, is our long-term partner. Their mission is to develop and provide solutions that enable unparalleled sonic quality for all audio applications.

Challenge
“Our demand was more for a rock band than a development team. Every team member had to show not only excellent audio software development skills but love for music as well. The real challenge lay in the desired experience with a unique technology that potential candidates would have to deal with. And, of course, we faced a tough deadline.”

Solution
“CNA assigned their researchers with the task of finding leading audio tools developers and were able to close our positions in India, Russia and Ukraine. IT professionals of various levels were interviewed and the best ones were soon working for Waves in those regions.”

Result
“We successfully closed positions of C++ and DSP developers, which helped us complete our staff intake in India and Russia. Today, our company is looking for smooth growth in various regions and for expansion of our business.”
