Razer Gold began collaborating with Savvycom since 2022 to address their critical staffing needs. With a reputation for innovative technology solutions, they faced a complex recruitment challenge as they scaled their operations. Over the past two years, Savvycom has successfully provided six high-caliber professionals to fulfill pivotal roles, showcasing our ability to meet urgent and demanding recruitment requirements.

Resource Optimization

Razer Gold needed to manage their internal resources more efficiently while rapidly scaling their projects. With time-sensitive projects and high internal demand, they required an external partner capable of delivering immediate solutions without overloading their internal teams.

Integration of Processes and Standards

Beyond just recruitment, they needed to integrate new hires smoothly into their established workflows and ensure that they adhered to their strict code standards and development processes. Aligning external talent with internal processes was vital to ensuring project continuity and high performance.

Specialized Skill Requirements

Their projects demanded developers with advanced expertise in .NET, NodeJS, VueJS, SQL scripting, AWS architecture, Python programming, and strong API development and integration experience. Additionally, candidates needed mandatory English proficiency. This combination of high technical and language standards made it challenging to find suitable candidates, with most recruitment partners struggling to meet these stringent criteria.

Urgency and Short Timelines

Due to pressing project deadlines, RAZ required new developers to be onboarded swiftly. Delays in staffing could lead to cost waisting and critical disruptions, making time-sensitive recruitment crucial for maintaining smooth project execution.

Tailored Screening and Selection Process

Savvycom implemented a rigorous selection process that focused on both technical and soft skills, especially English proficiency and communication skills, to ensure the developers could meet the unique demands of Razer Gold’s projects. This precision in candidate selection allowed us to find talent that aligned with both RAZ’s technical needs and their internal workflow.

Process Integration and Workflow Alignment

From the outset, Savvycom worked closely with them to understand their internal development processes and code standards. We ensured that every candidate not only had the required technical skills but could also integrate smoothly into their existing workflows, minimizing disruption. This focus on integration helped maintain high code quality, streamline collaboration, and boost overall project efficiency.

Candidate Preparation and Retention

Understanding the high standards of Razer Gold, Savvycom prepared each candidate thoroughly before interviews, ensuring they were well-versed in their tech stack, project expectations, and working culture for higher success rates in interviews. Additionally, to mitigate the risks of onboarding delays, we maintained constant engagement with the candidates, ensuring they remained available and interested in the roles despite contract negotiations or delays.

Agility in Addressing Changing Requirements

Throughout the partnership, their requirements evolved to include positions like Data Engineers and Full-Stack Developers. Savvycom remained agile, quickly adapting the search focus and criteria to meet these changing demands, ensuring our client always had access to the talent they needed.

Successful Talent Acquisition and Onboarding

Over two years, Savvycom successfully placed six high-caliber professionals within Razer Gold’s development teams, meeting their urgent staffing needs while integrating new talent into their workflows without delays. Our efficient and targeted recruitment approach ensured that these professionals were onboarded smoothly and could immediately contribute to the success of ongoing projects.

Optimization of Internal Resources and Processes

By relying on Savvycom’s expertise, they was able to optimize their internal resources, allowing their in-house teams to focus on core strategic tasks while Savvycom managed the urgent staffing and integration requirements. This created a more balanced workload and enhanced operational efficiency.

Enhanced Code Standards and Quality

Through the seamless integration of new hires into their development processes, we helped maintain and elevate code quality. The alignment of technical skills and adherence to internal coding standards ensured that the projects progressed with high-quality output and minimized errors.

The ability to consistently deliver top-tier candidates on short notice has cemented Savvycom’s position as a trusted recruitment partner. Razer Gold now regularly entrusts us with new resource requests, recognizing our capability to meet both immediate and long-term staffing needs in a dynamic project environment. Beyond Razer Gold, Savvycom’s expertise in recruitment and talent management in the technology sector is further evidenced by our successful partnerships with other global organizations, such as empowering KG Group from Korea and supporting Australian Payment Solutions Leader. These achievements highlight our capability to deliver tailored solutions that drive client success and reinforce our position as a top IT provider in Vietnam.
