WorkOtter
WorkOtter is the #1 ranked SaaS project, resource, and portfolio management solution.
The goal: Building an in-house team without breaking the bank
When Lauren Remes joined WorkOtter as their new Head of Marketing in May 2024, she was the only full-time marketer in-house. At the time, Lauren worked with an SEO agency that she wasn’t happy with and wanted to bring SEO in-house. The problem was that she didn’t have the budget to hire a top-tier candidate in the US.
The solution: Hiring from LATAM
Through Brite, WorkOtter hired a Senior SEO Manager from Argentina. Brite handled multi-national logistics, contracts, and compliance and assisted with every stage of the hiring process — from sourcing to onboarding.
Instead of getting part-time and subpar help from US-based agencies, the OrgChart team hired a full-time in-house team by hiring in Argentina and acquiring higher-caliber talent.
FAQs
We are not traditional recruiters. We are experienced start-up CMOs with a track record of building global remote teams. We understand what it is like to build and grow something from the ground up. We help founders build in-house teams by hand-matching them with pre-vetted senior talent.
Each candidate undergoes a 5-step intensive interview and technical vetting process. As operators, we globally look for proven experts with passion and drive. Our rigorous screening process ensures we get the best. We only accept people into the network who we’d want to work with and learn from ourselves. We accept less than 1% of applicants.
Step 1: Screening & English assessment. The first step of the screening process is a comprehensive English language and communication interview evaluation. We also screen candidates based on their experience to ensure they have the required skill set for the role.
Step 2: Analytical test. We test each applicant's analytical skills via a proprietary test we developed over the years as hiring managers.
Step 3: Behavioral interview. Each candidate is interviewed by the Brite team, who are expert operators in their functional domain. Our screeners provide specific live exercises, looking for problem-solving ability, depth of experience, communication ability, and creativity.
Step 4: Cultural fit interview. If the candidate passes through the first three steps of the process, we evaluate each candidate for cultural fit for our clients.
Step 5: Client interview. We hand-select 3-4 candidates representing the top 1% of applicants and introduce them to our clients at this stage. Our clients do their own screening to decide which candidate to hire.
We match you with hand-selected 3-4 candidates that match your criteria in two weeks. Most clients complete the entire recruiting process in under four weeks.
We are location agnostic. The location depends on the needs of our clients. We recommend you a recruiting strategy based on your time overlap and salary budget requirements. We successfully hired top-tier talent from LATAM (Argentina, Colombia, Chile and Mexico), Eastern Europe (Poland, Ukraine, and Turkey) and East Asia (India, Pakistan and the Philippines).
