Testimonials
They trusted the Licorne Society team with their mobile hiring
3 roles already filled: our lead dev, a biometrics expert and an iOS mobile developer. Currently hiring: a cryptography expert and a cybersecurity engineer. A very professional team that really listens. The candidates they put forward are excellent and match the original brief, even though these profiles are both rare and in high demand, which makes them hard to recruit.
We asked Licorne Society to handle hiring for our tech team. They quickly stood out from our other partners thanks to their rigorous candidate selection and the commitment they showed throughout the assignment. Guilhem helped us close the hire of a developer, and it was a real pleasure to work with him: supportive, rigorous and tenacious. Several months later, we are still fully satisfied with the person we hired.
We turned to Licorne Society for an urgent, strategic hire: a senior Front-End developer to strengthen our technical team. Licorne Society understood what we were looking for and quickly introduced us to high-quality candidates. Their efficiency had a positive impact on our team, which could move forward on its projects with more peace of mind thanks to this new hire.
