CREA – success story

CREA, a Slovenian software development company, needed to find and recruit highly specialised IT professionals – analysts and programmers – to support its growth and expansion. The company operates in an international environment and requires only candidates with the highest level of knowledge and expertise. As a rapidly growing company, CREA needed a reliable partner who could consistently provide qualified IT candidates whenever the company needed to expand its team.

Manpower d.o.o. provided specialised IT recruitment and selection services tailored to CREA's specific needs. The solution involved:

- Deep understanding of specific IT positions and required technical knowledge by Manpower's specialised IT recruitment consultant
- Advanced candidate search and selection strategies
- Continuous provision of candidates whenever CREA needed to expand its team
- Thorough candidate evaluation to ensure only the highest quality professionals were presented for interviews

Manpower's IT specialist demonstrated in-depth understanding of the technical positions and the specific knowledge requirements for each role, which was critical for CREA's success. The initial engagement for specific IT profiles quickly evolved into a long-term partnership.

Beyond the positions CREA was actively seeking, Manpower also recommended additional candidates who demonstrated appropriate knowledge and potential to fit well within CREA's work culture and contribute to the company's continued development.

- Initial collaboration for specific IT profiles evolved into a long-term partnership
- Consistent and timely provision of qualified candidates whenever CREA needed to expand its team
- Success rate in candidate selection exceeded 100% – meaning Manpower not only filled the requested positions but also recommended additional candidates who were successfully hired
- Candidates presented in the selection process had positive experiences, which enhanced CREA's reputation as a desirable employer
- In 2023, CREA merged with the UK-based company nChain, which specialises in Bitcoin, business solutions, and IT security software development and implementation. With over 120 developers, nChain became one of the largest Bitcoin development teams globally, with CREA's acquisition significantly strengthening nChain's position
- The partnership demonstrated the value of working with specialised recruitment consultants who understand the technical requirements and market dynamics of IT positions
