Wunder employed two junior software developers through Integrify in May. After successful 6 months, both developers were hired directly by Wunder.

Wunder, Europe’s largest digital agency specializing in Drupal projects and web service design, knows that finding good developers is hard. Shortage of developers affects every company, even if you are on top of the Great-Place-to-Work list like Wunder. Instead of waiting for developers to show up on their doorstep, Wunder decided to act on the challenge and employ two junior developers from Integrify. Talent Manager Anna Granvik from Wunder shared her thoughts of the benefits of working with Integrify.

The most obvious upside of partnering with Integrify is that companies get talented developers for their team, that are highly motivated and eager to constantly learn and develop. From very early on Wunder was able to use Integrify’s developers in customer projects doing billable work.

“The developers are really excited to add value to everything they do and this attitude fits Wunder’s culture perfectly. Furthermore, this is an excellent way to add diversity to the workplace and to build a more inclusive culture.”

In addition, employing people from Integrify is a low-risk, high reward investment. The hiring company is able to get to know the developers during the period they are employed through Integrify. If the company is happy with the work, it can hire the developer(s) directly to their company — as Wunder did.

The feedback for Wunder from the hired developers, Niloo and Senad, has also been great. Wunder provided a perfect environment for the recently graduated juniors. At Wunder, junior developers naturally have a different role and expectations than seniors. Team members support each other and value diversity among the team members. In order to help juniors grow professionally, they receive guidance from seniors.

Senad & Niloo

All in all, the partnership between Wunder and Integrify has been extremely successful. Wunder got two new skilled developers to join the company full-time and the developers got jobs in a renowned digital agency with great values and investment in employee development. Integrify’s developers have the growth mindset that is needed to grow from a junior level to senior level. That’s why Wunder recommends all companies to find their next developer from Integrify!
