SaaS solution for automated job advertisements
MrWork develops talent pipelines for recruitment, establishing direct links between companies and their target candidates. They assist in attracting applicants, crafting personalized candidate experiences, and ensuring that suitable individuals apply. Additionally, MrWork reaches candidates who are not actively seeking employment.
The collaboration with Amsterdam Standard began in 2015 when they hired a single developer for a project. Over the next four years, the developer count increased, with some being based in the Netherlands (primarily front-end) and others in their Krakow office (mostly back-end). The company sought an efficient method to manage this growing team. The original MrWork system, developed with technologies from 2014, became outdated and challenging to modify, prompting the need for an upgrade.
In early 2019, several key changes occurred. MrWork opted to completely rebuild their system based on insights gained over the years, centering their efforts on a SaaS platform. They also decided to consolidate the team within the Amsterdam Standard office and follow the recommendation to hire a Scrum Master nearby to enhance communication and workflow. Additionally, they transitioned from Angular1 to React and Symfony, allowing them to attract skilled professionals capable of meeting high project standards.
As it stands, the MrWork team includes four full-time and one part-time developers, along with a Scrum Master from the Amsterdam Standard side and a project manager from MrWork. Thanks to their dedicated efforts over nearly a year, the new system was launched, and by early 2020, all existing and new clients were transitioned to this updated platform.
Technically, the new system employs the latest technologies and frameworks, featuring scheduled technology checks during meetings to ensure they stay current. They have fully automated the CI/CD process with tools for code quality, and the system boasts high code coverage through both unit and functional tests, alongside robust log collection and error reporting features.
At present, MrWork provides a SaaS solution for automated job advertising. The new system is quick, flexible, and dependable. It can accommodate clients’ feeds in any format, enhancing versatility. To prevent repetitive content from being shown to potential candidates, they developed a smart solution that includes a content library populated with client materials and a range of branded advertisement templates. The system autonomously generates various content combinations and conducts A/B testing to identify the most effective options, ensuring candidates always encounter fresh and captivating content.
