SwiftOtter will facilitate.
The team at SwiftOtter certainly lives up to their name. They were fast and efficient. We had an urgent need and Joseph was able to make quick introductions to an extremely well-suited candidate who has turned out to be a great fit to our team. Out the gate she just hit the ground running. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. The report Swift Otter provided on the candidate was spot on in all areas of the report and even touched on topics I had not considered in my own evaluation. I highly recommend SwiftOtter.

You've probably interviewed candidates that punched LinkedIn's "Apply" button on 50 applications. Or, worse, you've met with recruiter-provided candidates with a fancy resumé who can't answer a single technical question.
Leave the first step in the interview process to us. We are the most technical service provider in this space—so we can adequately vet candidates. When we present you with a candidate, we bring along an objective report of our findings on their skills and abilities.
We use a simple tiered pricing structure for our placements. Check this out:
SwiftOtter's mission is to present you with high-quality candidates. Our reward for helping you find these people is very loosely tied to how much they are paid. Thus, it's up to you to negotiate directly with the candidate, knowing that you will reach a fair deal.
Our work on the above points is to reduce the possibility that this candidate will leave.
We will warranty the candidate (can you warranty a person?). If the candidate leaves in the first four months after employment, we will help you find a replacement.
Joseph knows that developers are the backbone of ecommerce. He loves ensuring they are happy and, thus, helps with making these connections.
Lee has been in the software development industry for over twenty years. He is our primary person for vetting developers and other candidates.
First things first: we will ask for some information about who you want to bring on. Ideally, this is a bonafide job description. We will ask for salary requirements, benefits, work hours, etc. We also want to come away from the call with a no-BS understanding of the general culture of your team.
We will immediately review our library of intelligent people and send over any matches. We will also continue to look through our incoming candidates' pipeline and vet these as quickly as possible. Note that the vetting process can take a day or two because we are diligent in helping you find the best in the industry.
Are you ready to chat?
We are looking for the following:
At this point, we are focused on the Adobe Commerce / Magento space. If you are unhappy at your current place of employment, drop us a note (kept confidential), and we will chat with you.
It is our #1 goal is happy developers. This may be because we are developers ourselves. Either way, we have curated this process to ensure you are happy—for a long time at your next place of work.
As part of our first conversation, we will find out if you're certified. If you aren't, we will help you achieve that. We usually offer a deal where you pay a 50% buy-in for the process. If we can get you into the perfect company, we'll refund your 50%.
You may be surprised to dive deep into technical material on one of our first calls. This is because we want to understand your exact skillset and capabilities. We will also ask you to take a skills test. We then write a report that we send to prospective employers about you. It's honest and unbiased. We will maintain excellent communication through this process.
We are not poachers. We are ethical, honest people. The name "recruiter" has been tarnished by some aggressive people who spam developers. This is not us.
We want to help people be happy in their roles.
We want to provide connections to those who are not currently happy.
