In the competitive fintech landscape of Gurgaon, speed is often the deciding factor between securing top talent and losing them to competitors. This case study highlights how Hirefex partnered with a growing financial technology firm in Gurgaon to solve a critical hiring bottleneck.
The Client: A Series-B funded Fintech company based in DLF Cyber City, specializing in digital payments and lending solutions.
The Core Problem: The client had an urgent product launch deadline but was facing a 45-day hiring cycle with their existing recruitment vendors. They needed to onboard 5 senior developers (Laravel & React) immediately to meet their go-to-market goals.
The Challenge: High Dropouts & Slow Processes
Before approaching Hirefex, the client was struggling with:
- Long Turnaround Times: Traditional agencies were taking 5-7 days just to share the first batch of resumes.
- High Candidate Dropout Rate: Many candidates were backing out at the last minute because the hiring process was dragging on for weeks.
- Quality Mismatch: The internal HR team was wasting hours interviewing candidates who lacked the specific technical skills required for their fintech product.
The Solution: Hirefex’s 24-Hour Rapid Screening
We implemented our signature "Speed + Precision" recruitment model tailored for the Gurgaon market. Here is how we turned the situation around:
1. Day 0: Deep Requirement Analysis
Instead of just taking the Job Description (JD), our technical recruiters sat down with the client's CTO to understand the exact tech stack and cultural fit. We identified that they didn't just need "coders"—they needed problem solvers who understood secure payment gateways.
2. Day 1: The 24-Hour Sprint
Leveraging our pre-vetted talent pool in NCR, we sourced and screened candidates overnight. Our unique Technical Pre-Screening ensured that only candidates who passed a preliminary code review were presented to the client.
3. Day 3-7: Streamlined Interview Coordination
We managed the entire scheduling process, ensuring feedback was shared within 2 hours of every interview. This kept candidates engaged and prevented them from accepting other offers.
The Result: 5 Critical Hires in 10 Days
By shifting from a passive approach to our proactive rapid-hiring model, the results were immediate:
- 5 Offers Rolled Out: We successfully placed 3 Senior Laravel Developers and 2 React Native Engineers within 10 days.
- 100% Offer Acceptance: Due to the speed of the process, no candidates were lost to counter-offers.
- 40% Reduction in Hiring Costs: The client saved significant budget by reducing the time-to-fill and avoiding project delays.
