We received a request for support and held a team briefing with the client on the position.

We formed a 3-person project team – 1 Project lead + 2 IT recruiters and held a “Sprint Planning Meeting” where we determined the sprint goal, the best strategy to achieve that goal and the sprint schedule.

Based on the strategy, the team agreed on specific tasks, which were added to the backlog and assigned to the right people – the team decides on the choice of tasks.

The team met for a “Daily Scrum”, where we reviewed progress against the goal, discussed project challenges, shared further ideas and lessons learned.

Clarification: although the very idea that the “Daily” should not be held every day (as the name suggests, after all) seems controversial, in the course of experimentation the recruitment team opted for meetings every other day. This is partly due to the fact that in Team Up one person takes part in up to 3 projects at the same time, which would cause the number of meetings to pile up if they were held every day.

The team had a sprint review where we verified the achievement of the sprint goal and agreed that we need to run another sprint to fully achieve the goals. Therefore the whole cycle was repeated the following week. After the first review, the Project Lead briefed the client on the candidates’ acceptance of the offer and the market situation.

During the review of the second sprint, it was decided that the candidate pipeline was good and we completed active sourcing. We prepared and sent to the client our standard report of the two sprints, in which we presented our activities, challenges, results and market report.

The result: during the two recruitment sprints (2 weeks in total), we sent 6 candidate profiles to the client, of which 4 were invited for an interview. One of them received a job offer and was hired.
