I have been working with Cian and the nineDots team for over a year now and would highly recommend them to any company in need of niche technical recruitment support. Cian is extremely proactive, he knows his market, he has understood every brief we have given him and delivered every time.

Director Of Engineering,Phorest Salon Software

Having worked with the nineDots team over the last year we've formed a great partnership. They understand our engineering values and company culture so well that they have been able to fill our roles with top class candidates that have hit the ground running and fit perfectly into the team.

Head of Ecosystem Programs,Algorand

I have known Cian and the nineDots team from my previous role and they were always great to deal with. Blockchain roles can sometimes be ambiguous but nineDots were diligent in ensuring they understood the role intimately to produce the best candidates for the roles. We had been looking for a Developer Advocate for our team in Algorand Foundation for quite a while and it had been out to a few agencies. I reached out to Cian to see if they could help. Cian provided me with 2 candidates within a couple of days and we hired one of them who has since joined the team and he is brilliant. I would recommend anyone looking for really good talent to hit the nineDots team up if you want a real partner that knows what they are doing.

nineDots have been instrumental in growing our development team. They understood our current hiring strategy which is 'quality over quantity', which also fits in with their philosophy well. There hasn't been one bad recommendation from them which saves a tremendous amount of time.

Site Lead & Director of Engineering,Vectra AI

Cian came recommended by the crowd on the ITC and it has been nothing short of eye opening in terms of their service and delivery. They have been successful in filling nearly our whole team; this is why we dropped using all bar nineDots and one other agency - it cut out the noise and helped us focus on what we needed to do.

nineDots joined our contractor recruitment PSL In February 2019 alongside 2 other large corporate recruitment agencies. They have consistently outperformed the other agencies through their understanding of our requirements and their ability to engage with high quality contractor candidates. I would gladly recommend Cian, Rose, Aisling and the rest of the crew at nineDots.

CEO,Bonkers.ie

As bonkers.ie continues to grow, I found I was it a challenge to source well vetted, suitable candidates; I was then introduced to Cian. I have now worked with nineDots on a number of occasions and they have produced well-screened candidates and were successful at placing each role, both from a technical and cultural perspective.

Hit us up.

We are a team of 11 people with no notions about ourselves, based in sunny Dublin, Ireland. The term 'too many cooks spoil the broth' couldn't be truer these days when it comes to recruitment. Leave it with us to get the job done.
