How we get candidates, and keep employees

Right now our main sources of candidates come from several channels. Every job we post is syndicated across +50 different job boards automatically, shared by most major university and business school career centers across Canada to their students, and sometimes promoted via paid advertising. We also proactively reach out to potential candidates via Angel.co and Linkedin, share jobs across multiple social media groups and pages, and work with a recruitment firm to source candidates. We attend career fairs, networking events, and write content such as this page and blog posts to be found by active job seekers. Most of our candidate sourcing is inbound.

To keep employees happy we regularly run team socials, such as events or theme days, we celebrate birthdays and milestones as a team, as we survey employees on their happiness, preferences, and other data we use to make their work lives better.
