Global Delivery Partners

My client is looking to hire senior backend developers with good written and verbal communication skills that can be in the office 2-3 days per week.

They’re also undergoing a “strategic workforce reshaping with global delivery partners” which means they’re hiring low-cost developers from the large outsourcing companies: Cognizant, CGI, Accenture, and Tata. I’m not privvy to the agreements that are struck with these vendors but I can speak to the strain this strategy puts on engineering teams. We’ve screened and interviewed dozens of candidates and haven’t made a single hire.

TL;DR My client is paying top dollar for enterprise licenses for a platform that their own policies prevent people from using.

My enterprise client has a few open roles for developers so we’ve been asked to interview candidates. After the first batch of resumes we decided that we needed to do some pre-screening because the agencies certainly were not.

I reached out to the client’s recruiting department to ask about getting access to a technical screening platform like CoderPad, Codility, or HackerRank.
