INTELLIWARE AND HAPPY HIVE LAUNCH CHALLENGE

Published: September 17, 2024 in Blog

Toronto, Canada – September 17, 2024 – Intelliware Development Inc., a leader in software development, and happy hive, a platform for innovative hiring solutions, is proud to launch a Hiring Challenge the week of October 9^th, 2024. This initiative is designed to transform traditional hiring practices through challenge-based hiring, with a focus on uncovering “hidden talent” and increasing opportunities in tech for women and underrepresented genders. The challenge will focus on recruiting Full Stack Developers and Business System Analysts.

The tech industry has made significant strides toward greater diversity, with a growing emphasis on empowering women. However, traditional hiring practices often overlook skilled individuals who do not fit conventional profiles. The Hiring Challenge aims to address this gap by focusing on a candidate’s potential, competencies, and leadership abilities, rather than solely on their resume.

Innovative Approach to Hiring

This unique partnership introduces challenge-based hiring, a research-based methodology that evaluates candidates based on their competencies, communication, and leadership abilities. This approach removes bias and streamlines the hiring process, allowing for a more accurate assessment of a candidate’s true potential. By prioritizing talent’s potential over traditional metrics, Intelliware and happy hive aim to redefine how organizations identify and nurture talent.

Empowering Women and Underrepresented Genders in Tech

The program also emphasizes creating opportunities for female developers through a fair and transparent hiring process. By focusing on skills and potential rather than traditional qualifications, the Challenge opens doors for women in tech who might otherwise be overlooked by conventional hiring methods. This initiative not only supports diversity but also enriches the tech industry with varied perspectives and experiences.

“Intelliware is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workforce,” said Stephanie Clarkson, Vice President, People at Intelliware. “The Challenge represents a significant step toward redefining how we identify and nurture talent in the tech industry.”

“There is no single management decision that has a greater impact than who gets hired—or not hired—for specific roles” added Kaaren Whitney-Vernon, Founder of happy hive. “Our hiring practices influence not only access to valuable resources that accompany good jobs but also determine the individuals who make decisions within organizations. Through this partnership with Intelliware, we are excited to open doors for female and underrepresented developers and bring a new approach to hiring.”

The Challenge is set to launch on October 9^th, 2024, with applications open to all Full Stack software developers and Business System Analyst looking to challenge traditional hiring norms. For more information, please visit community.happyhive.work or contact Kaaren at [email protected]
