Problem:

Cloudera is the industry and market-share leader in the ultra-competitive enterprise data analytics space. In order to push for continued success, they needed to aggressively pursue the best and brightest talent to expand their teams. Cloudera reached out Sage Solutions for our sourcing and active headhunting expertise.

Solution:

The key to impressing the Cloudera managers was to deliver quality talent that they haven’t been able to reach previously. This is where industry experience matters. Sage Solutions hand selected 6 experienced recruiters with an individual average of more than 7 years of experience for the project. The task was clear; perform hyper-focused searches to allow Cloudera to increase their overall talent level.

Results:

Over 9 months (and counting!) the Sage Solutions team delivered key hires across the organization. The hiring managers were immediately pleased with Sage Solutions’ sourcing and thorough screening process. We succeeded in filling important roles like Senior Manager of Site Reliability, Director of Partner Sales, and Senior Contracts Manager. One manager exclaimed, “I don’t think I have ever seen such well-qualified candidates before. [Sage Solutions] has hit a GRAND SLAM home run on this role.”

TESTIMONIAL:

“I have partnered with Sage Solutions’ Recruiting on Demand team on several occasions [VMware, Cloudera]. I continue to work with them because of their best in class recruiters and top notch support. Recruiting on Demand provides me the flexibility needed when scaling the organization.”
