Acme Talent scales engineering hires by 42% faster

A European SaaS recruiting agency needed to fill senior engineering roles without burning out sourcers — Mainder automated discovery and personalized outreach at scale.

Demo case study

This is an illustrative scenario based on archetypal hiring workflows: not a real customer or verified testimonial.

In their words
“We stopped treating sourcing like manual data entry. Mainder runs the hunt overnight and our recruiters wake up to ranked, enriched candidates ready for a human conversation.”
Marta Ríos, Head of Delivery, Acme Talent Group

The challenge

Acme Talent Group runs retained searches for VC-backed SaaS companies across the EU. Their sourcers spent 60% of each week on manual LinkedIn browsing and copy-pasting outreach templates. Engineering roles averaged 47 days to fill, and hiring managers complained about shallow shortlists.

How Mainder helped

The team deployed AI Hunt for 24/7 sourcing across GitHub and LinkedIn, AI Scoring to calibrate fit scores against Acme's historical placements, and AI Pipeline Manager to prioritize active reqs. Recruiters shifted from hunting to closing.

Outcomes

  • Time-to-hire for senior engineering roles dropped from 47 to 27 days.
  • Weekly qualified candidates per open role increased 3.2× without adding headcount.
  • AI Scoring raised average fit scores by 18 points versus legacy boolean searches.
  • Reply rates on first-touch outreach climbed because sequences referenced real project signals.
