Hi programmers
I am Iwan (iwan@coderfit.com, Linkedin). I am a former engineer turned technical recruiter. After working for three years as a programmer, I am helping companies with their tech recruiting needs.
Right now we are not only sourcing and vetting great engineers, we also match and make them pair program with experts in their stack. We record 10-15 min video-interviews and make candidates proceed faster through hiring funnels at great tech-firms in Zurich, Munich and New York.
These are our most popular blog posts about Switzerland and hiring:
These short texts were read by tens of thousands of people who searched online “for tech jobs in Switzerland. Through this we attracted several dozens of software engineers to come to this tiny but great country.
Please scroll down to see some of our talks or contact me for more information about what we do.
We fill most vacancies through the following channels:
- Inbound applicants that come through writing (https://medium.com/@iwaninzur

- Job boards (Angel.co, Indeed) — 20% of hires
- Tech specific events, meetups, conferences — 15% of hires
- Linkedin active outreach — 5% (only in very specific cases)
