In need of Software Engineers? Here is our little secret…

There is a shortage of software engineers in the world and therefore, companies are willing to achieve the impossible to win candidates. This includes, but is not limited to, better salaries, a wide range of benefits, and outstanding growth opportunities. As you may guess, all of these can result in being expensive for companies not only in economic terms but also in time and effort. But, what happens after someone is hired?
The job-hopping tendency, especially among Millennials, has become more and more popular. Nowadays, professionals tend to seek for the best opportunity and, particularly in competitive industries like this one, this concludes in them switching jobs constantly. Of course, this presents a disadvantage for companies that need to hire software engineers but, fortunately, Staff Augmentation companies are an excellent way of coping with this providing both companies and candidates with the best of both worlds.

A workplace like Virtualmind's offers an amazing way of tackling this issue. Here are some of the reasons:

• Different challenges just around the corner (literally)

One cause that generally leads to engineers wanting a change in their careers is the fact that they do not find the project they are working with thrilling anymore. Lucky for them, in Virtualmind we work with awe-inspiring partners and if needed, we can help them start a new adventure without having to actually seek for a new job! How? Through our internal rotation initiative that’s proven to be successful and motivational to our Virtualminerds. In fact, we have a …% rotation rate, which demonstrates how well this works.

• The chance to be as spoiled as a newborn

We understand software engineers receive the best offers in terms of benefits but have you read ours? An endless range of trainings and certifications, paid time off, paternity leave, active pause sessions, the chance of booking a coworking space anywhere in the world, the option of requesting funding and books, among many others! The best part? All of them are thought by our People Care department, a team that dedicates their 100% to make sure you are being pampered.

• The possibility of working with a team that care

Virtualmind is a place where everyone can speak up, a work environment we build altogether. Our Staff Teams are constantly identifying ways to improve and guarantee awesomeness! We have coffee talks, a space where we can all get to know each other and take a break from our daily tasks, and monthly challenges, where we learn about each culture, for example. In addition, we have special chats or pages for specific interests to share stuff with colleagues. Whoever joins us can rest assured that they are not only becoming part of a certified Great Place to Work® but are also helping build one, day by day.

To sum it up, collaborators’ well-being should be the priority all the time. For this reason we are committed to making sure they have everything they are looking for in their job, to guarantee both professional and individual growth!
