Client feedback highlights strong communication, satisfaction with placements, and an ongoing partnership since April 2017.

Project Solution

KitRUM acted as a staffing partner to rapidly source and screen qualified candidates for urgent hires. The vendor provided screened resumes—typically within one to two days—and offered a first-week trial period for placements so engineers could be replaced quickly if not a fit. They supplied two data science and machine learning engineers to a startup client and supported them in adapting to other roles until Python-based work was required.

Project Outcome

Everyone has been pleased with the work and KitRUM staff are satisfied with their placements.
Faster hiring: resumes provided within one to two days.
Increased confidence in onboarding due to the first-week trial period.
