Recruitment for Freelance Services Marketplace
ABOUT FIVERR
Fiverr – the online marketplace that links independent contractors with customers looking for different services. Several expert services are provided by it, including graphic design, writing, marketing, programming, and others.
The “gig” structure of Fiverr, which allows independent contractors to market their talents and knowledge through customized service offerings, is its standout feature. Customers may peruse these gigs, evaluate the rates, check reviews, and employ the freelancers who best meet their requirements. Fiverr has developed into a go-to site for companies and individuals wanting to easily outsource chores and projects because of its user-friendly design and worldwide network of creative people.
THE CHALLENGE
We faced the exciting and challenging task of recruiting specialists to work in Fiverr’s in-house R&D team in the Ukrainian office. The client was very picky about the candidates, their skills, and their abilities. The requirements for the technology stack contained quite broad specifications for candidates. So, we accepted this challenge and started working with them.

We are a company with experience in software development and understand the specific skills, qualifications, and expertise required for IT specialist roles.

This ensures that only qualified candidates move forward in the recruitment process and reduces the overall time and effort spent on recruitment, ensuring faster talent acquisition.
HOW THE RECRUITING Process Looks Like
- Discussion and collection of information about the company and open vacancies in it.
- Analysis of the labor market according to client requirements and optimization of offers.
- Selection of candidates according to the client’s criteria.
- Coordination and conduct of technical interview with our team.
- Transfer of a potential candidate to a recruiter or HR representative of our client.
- Accompanying the candidate through all stages of an interview until feedback is received.
Recruitment REsults
We analyzed the labor market for the specialists the client needed. We identified the discrepancies between the needs of job seekers and the client’s requirements and offers and reached a consensus on the final offer that we would present to the specialists during the interview. In the first month, 50-60 candidates were selected and submitted to Fiverr for consideration. Overall, over the entire period of cooperation, more than 1000 candidates were submitted for review. It was an exciting challenge because the client had high requirements for candidates, and they were looking for employees only for the in-house Team without considering outsourcing or outstaffing options. However, thanks to the efforts of our Team, 28 high-quality specialists were hired to join the Fiverr team.
