Case study - Fast-tracking engineering talent: Placing a lead electrical engineer in 35 days

The Challenge

A global medical device company that has been in business for over one hundred years came to 180 Engineering seeking a Lead Electrical Engineer that had experience with PCB design, power supplies, and Class I and Class II med device development. To further the complexity of the search, our client had very high standards for culture fit and was only willing to consider candidates who valued teamwork and who were passionate about their work.

The Solution

180 Engineering sprung into action by hosting a thorough intake meeting with the hiring manager and the HR manager to get a full understanding of the culture and technical requirements. From there, our recruiters sourced and screened the surrounding areas for the right person. Each candidate had to engage in several conversations around technical proficiency, soft skills, and culture fit before we felt the candidate was the right match.

The Outcome

After just 35 days of sourcing and screening, 180 Engineering found a Lead Electrical Engineer with experience in PCB design, power supplies, and  med device design work and more importantly, who was seeking a role in a collaborative environment just like the culture our client takes pride in.
