AI is changing recruitment.
But it hasn’t changed one of the biggest reasons great hires happen:
Timing.
AI can help us search bigger talent pools, understand profiles faster and make sourcing more efficient.
What it can’t manufacture is the relationship behind the conversation.
We might speak to an engineer today who has no intention of moving. Six months later, their situation changes. A year later, the right opportunity appears.
Because we already know what motivates them, that conversation can happen at exactly the right time.
Right person. Right opportunity. Right time.
Many of the best engineers in Sweden and Norway are never really “on the market”. They’re having conversations with people they already know and trust.
AI will make recruitment better. We’re using it ourselves.
But technology improves the search.
Relationships create the timing.
Sometimes the best placement starts with a search.
Quite often, it started with a conversation years earlier.
🚀 2 Years of Ellis Sullivan! 🚀
It’s been two years since Ellis joined the iFindTech team, and what a two years it’s been! 👏
Since joining, he has gone from strength to strength, building brilliant relationships, delivering fantastic results & becoming a big part of the team along the way. 🤝 He’s also made a habit of smashing the majority of our incentives.. so he’s certainly enjoyed his fair share of celebrations too! 🏆🍾
It’s been great to see how much he’s progressed in such a short space of time, and we’re excited to see what the next chapter brings! 🔥
Congratulations on 2 years, Ellis!

Nordic Tech Week is back next week!
Stockholm will once again bring together founders, investors, tech leaders and some of the most exciting startups and scaleups from across the Nordic ecosystem. 🚀
The Nordics have been the core market for iFindTech for many years, so it’s always interesting to see the conversations and trends coming out of events like Nordic Tech Week.
One of the biggest changes we’re seeing right now is, unsurprisingly, around AI. 🤖
It’s quickly moved beyond companies simply experimenting with it. More and more of the businesses we speak to are looking at how AI can become part of the way their teams actually work, build products and solve problems.
And we’re seeing that feed into hiring too. AI experience is becoming increasingly valuable, but the fundamentals are still just as important.. great engineers who can take ownership, understand the customer and build great products will always stand out. 💻
With so much changing across tech, there should be plenty to talk about in Stockholm next week.
What do you think will be the biggest talking point at Nordic Tech Week this year? 👇

Last month we took the iFindTech team off-site for our End of Year Meeting 🥂
A chance to get everyone together, look back at the year we’ve had,
celebrate the wins and recognise some brilliant individual performances.
🏆 Cash prizes handed out
👏 Plenty of well-deserved recognition
📈 A look back at what we’ve achieved
🎯 And a big focus on what we want to accomplish over the next 12 months
But most importantly, it was a chance to say a massive thank you to the whole team for the hard work and commitment they’ve put in throughout the year.
We also celebrated Owen Butler’s birthday – complete with a dessert and a moment he’d probably rather wasn’t caught on camera 😂🎂
A great afternoon with a fantastic group of people.
Proud of what we’ve achieved over the last year, and even more excited about what’s ahead 🚀
