Helping Reson8 build its founding engineering team

Talent Nova helped Reson8 hire two founding engineers, supporting the founders from defining the profiles through search, interviews and offers.

“We worked with Talent Nova to help build out our founding engineering team at Reson8 and had a great experience.

Leah took the time to really understand what we were building, the technical bar we needed and the type of people who would thrive at such an early stage. She worked closely and flexibly with us throughout, from mapping out the right profiles and shaping the search through to ensuring a great candidate experience, navigating offers and everything needed to get hires over the line.

Most importantly, Talent Nova helped us hire two brilliant founding engineers without compromising on quality. They took a huge amount of the hiring workload away from our team while still keeping us closely involved in the decisions that mattered.”

Raul Ritter, Co-founder at Reason8
