Approaching the recruiting process for small businesses
Ie.: Meet Peerfect.io
How did we come up with this idea?
I'm the technical Co-Founder of GitShowcase, a platform designed to help developers be awesome at showcasing their talents.
Since we launched GitShowcase, my Co-Founder Victor F. Santos and I realised that in order to improve the recruiting process for the developers, we needed to better understand how companies currently handle recruiting and how we could bring change.
As we studied more about the recruiting process and participated in some processes ourselves in our day jobs, we noticed that recruiting is a real struggle, specially for small companies, where time is a very valuable asset and people have to juggle between spending time recruiting people and growing the product.
With all that we learned, plus a designer and a developer on the team, the missing piece of the puzzle was solved when our friend Cas de Groot joined us, bringing all his knowledge of HR and SEO.
But there are lots of other companies out there that handle recruiting, why another one?
Yes, in fact, there are several companies that offer recruiting software and consultancy. However, most of them aim on big enterprises, have very high pricing points and lots of features that most people will never use and that end up making the recruiting process more painful.
Unfortunately, this is how the recruitment process happens now:
So to answer the question, here's why we decided to create Peerfect:
We want to offer a way for people to collaborate and understand what is going on with the recruitment process that neither takes months to setup nor that costs 500$/month.
Peerfect aims to give you back time to focus on your business. We don’t have 1000 features, we offer a lean and smart solution for a fair price 49$/month.
Want to know more?
Check out our website :). We have a very honest approach to what we offer and how we aim to help small business in the recruiting process.
Our launch is right around the corner, on November 2nd. You can join the waiting list to keep up to date.
