The challenge

Recruiting amidst resource constraints and fierce industry competition

Finding the right talent was a constant battle for Cargosnap. Tight budgets and a cut-throat tech job market forced them to compromise, sometimes leading to bad hires. Even using their network and referrals, recruitment remained a time-consuming hassle. Developers, known for being passive jobseekers, were especially difficult to find. This constant struggle took valuable time away from growing their business. After experiencing success with the RocketRevenue team, Cargosnap decided to expand collaboration by partnering with the RocketPeople team.
