With a perceived global shortage of tech skills coupled with massive growth in demand for flexible tech contractors, the time is ripe for a game-changing recruitment solution. Enter One Degree, a disruptive digital hiring platform, which has officially launched and is now inviting SMEs and corporates to sign up and acquire licences. Engineered specifically for the modern gig economy, remote work and radical flexibility trends, One Degree, which is based in South Africa, promises to transform how businesses connect with high-quality independent tech contractors, streamlining the recruitment process like never before. Gone are the days of bemoaning a lack of tech skills – One Degree seamlessly matches skilled tech contractors with savvy SMEs and corporate customers.
Today’s fast-paced global job market is putting organisations under additional pressure to source the right IT talent quickly and cost-effectively. Traditional recruitment approaches are too cost-prohibitive, resource-intensive and imprecise – driving salaries to unsustainable levels.
A platform for the future of work
The One Degree platform allows SMEs and corporates to directly match with skilled independent tech contractors without the need for intermediaries. By creating direct connections, SMEs can significantly reduce the time, effort and financial resources typically associated with the recruitment process.
Both corporates and SMEs have compelling reasons to join One Degree. Foremost among these is the promise of efficiency and precision. Gone are the days of sifting through countless CVs; One Degree’s cutting edge algorithm ensures businesses swiftly find the right match for job vacancies.
Additionally, the platform stands as a cost-effective solution. By eliminating recruitment agency fees and significantly reducing the workload on HR teams, companies can realise substantial savings. In today’s gig economy, adaptability is crucial, and One Degree rises to the challenge by catering to temporary projects and remote work opportunities.
Moreover, by tapping into a vast global network of independent tech contractors, SMEs can truly expand their recruitment horizons and benefit from a diverse talent pool.
