Business Challenge

Seeking to hire their first Designer to lead the company through a rebrand and establish its position in the market, the team prioritized finding someone who could excel in a fast-paced, ever-evolving start-up environment. As a small, close-knit team, cultural fit was critical. They needed a versatile Brand Designer with strong branding, UI, and marketing design expertise—a true all-rounder capable of rolling out the brand across all platforms, both print and digital. The ideal candidate would embody the collaborative spirit of a scaling tech company, ready to dive in, contribute across multiple areas, and thrive as a true team player.

Our Approach

We created a detailed competitive landscape analysis to identify ideal clients, focusing on their size and industry. It was crucial to find someone with experience in a similar setting to ensure they understood the unique challenges and nuances of working with a scaling tech company. Clear and quick email communication, coupled with prompt presentations and rapid client feedback, enabled us to efficiently move candidates through the pipeline, ensuring a seamless and effective process for all involved.

The Results & Impact

This was a new role so we provided a range of designers with different strengths and design aesthetic. In only two weeks, we presented seven candidates, the offer letter was signed a week later, and the candidate started exactly six weeks after our kick-off meeting.
