Case Experis - NerdyNet

Skilled IT Professional Tailored to Specific Needs

Case Experis

Experis™ is an international company specializing in executive and professional-level recruitment and project solutions, and it is the largest of the four pillars of ManpowerGroup. Clients turn to Experis for both permanent and temporary employment needs, as well as project-specific expert recruitments. NerdyNet™ has been a partner of Experis since 2017, and Experis clients have been highly satisfied with NerdyNet’s IT experts.

“All our Delivery Managers have a strong IT background, and all our consultants are specialists in their respective fields. Every assignment starts with finding the right professional to meet the client’s needs,” says Niina Lindroos, Key Account and Partner Manager at Experis.

“I know my clients well and understand their needs. Thanks to ManpowerGroup’s comprehensive resource solutions, we can offer everything a company needs: executive search and recruitment, outplacement services, and IT expert resourcing for both local support and challenging system development projects. The service produced through our IT partner network is a good solution when the required expertise is not available through recruitment, the need is very urgent (within a week or two), or the task does not allocate 100 % working time,” Niina states.

Experis’ strength lies in not presenting resumes to clients but interviewing each candidate. Additionally, Experis continuously monitors both client and consultant satisfaction. The same quality requirement that Niina emphasizes toward her clients is also upheld by NerdyNet.

“When information about the needed personnel comes, I go through not only our experts but also our network. I only consider people whose technical skills and personality match the specific role and team. This way, no one’s time is wasted,” says Jarno Laihi, CEO and founder of NerdyNet.

“Since we often seek specialized experts, sometimes only one good candidate remains in the sieve. Sometimes the client’s wish list is such that a matching expert cannot be found worldwide. In such cases, we help the client refine and prioritize the most important features for the success of the project,” Niina continues.

 

Technical Expertise Alone is not Enough

A few years ago, IT recruitments mainly emphasized technical skills, but now soft skills and attributes such as self-direction and collaboration have become important.

“I completely agree, and I would add understanding the client’s business to this,” adds Jarno.

”When we find a good partner like NerdyNet, we want to stick to it. When we know each other, and trust is built, it’s natural to continue the collaboration. The quality of work and smoothness of collaboration with NerdyNet are top-notch, and we have received the right professionals from them for our clients, from global giants to leading listed companies in Finland. As an example of client satisfaction, I can mention the feedback NerdyNet’s expert received in the end-client satisfaction survey: full points in every evaluation category, and the client’s representative commented that not only were the goals met but exceeded! No wonder that particular contract has been renewed five times, and with that, the role has been deepened and expanded,” Niina happily states.

As the recruitment channel for companies’ IT personnel, Experis is involved in various stages of development for businesses of different sizes, from startups to global giants. NerdyNet’s experts have different profiles, allowing the selection of a suitable individual for each assignment. A common focus in the partnership is a high priority on customer satisfaction and a desire to exceed expectations.

 

Partnerships as a Solution to the Shortage of IT professionals

Finding suitable IT professionals is a challenge both in Finland and globally. IT professionals are one of Experis’ most important focus areas. The benefits of outsourcing to the client include flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and the opportunity to complement missing expertise from their own organization.

“Partnerships are also at the core of NerdyNet’s operations. NerdyNet’s experts have solid expertise in various areas of IT, and clients appreciate their proactive approach, teamwork capabilities, and the ease of collaboration. In addition, our carefully built extensive network includes both specialized experts and the muscle needed for larger projects,” sums up Jarno.
