One of the largest IT companies in Russia, developing the country's most popular search engine and creating services that assist people in their daily tasks.
Task

The internal recruitment team was actively working on candidate sourcing but needed external support to fill all open positions. For this specific C-level marketing role, we needed to expand the candidate funnel due to the niche requirements of the position.
Key requirements

  • Data-driven approach, Fluent English
  • Proficiency in managing campaigns across various platforms: Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit, Discord, Instagram, TikTok.
  • Experience working in international markets.
  • Expertise in SMM, targeted advertising, influencer marketing, and community building.
  • Over 3 years of experience in leading digital marketing teams.
Process

After conducting a detailed briefing, we developed a search map and identified donor companies—large corporations or agencies working in international markets. We also actively worked with our candidate database and engaged in headhunting to connect with potential candidates of interest to the company. We conducted daily searches across key platforms to expand the candidate funnel.
Result

We thoroughly analyzed the market for the most relevant active and passive candidates and identified the best match for the role. During the search, the position was put on hold several times due to the emergence of finalists (both our candidates and the company's). Ultimately, one candidate completed all interview stages in 1.5 months, and an offer was extended two weeks after the final interview. The offer was accepted immediately upon presentation.
