Source is a talent intelligence platform that helps companies move quicker, reduce hiring costs, and acquire top technical talent. Sourcing talent faces three major problems, which we will solve: Problem #1: Every company we worked for had difficulty finding the right software developers. With the plethora of technical skills (1,000+) on the market and uncertainty in seniority, finding the missing piece to achieving the dream team was quite cumbersome. Problem #2: The time to source candidates for one role is between 13 and 20 hours a week. In other words, one-third to a half of a week's work. This leads to inefficiency, high costs, and worst of all incredibly-high burnout rates in the recruiting industry. Problem #3: The internal cost-per-hire is roughly around $4,700, and outsourced costs can reach sums as high as $50,000. Again, per hire. Let that sink in... How do we do it: By giving talent acquisition professionals a powerful talent search engine, they are able to perform smarter, cheaper, and faster than ever before. Instead of being powered by LinkedIn or Google, Sourcemoon is powered by data found on GitHub—the most popular platform among software developers. We use GitHub API, scraping, and parsing algorithms to collect and make sense of data from GitHub (other platforms coming in the future). The market is large and growing: The global talent acquisition & staffing market is valued at $141B, growing 5% YoY, and the global recruitment software market is valued at $8B.
