The challenge

Netpreme is a lean, technical team with everyone heads-down building. That's exactly why they needed recruiting to be fast, low-lift, and high-signal, with no room for a slow, noisy process. The People Operations role mattered: as the team grows, having the right person running people ops is more than a nice-to-have. But sourcing for it internally would have meant pulling Alix off everything else on her plate.

The approach

Jooba kicked off with a single 30-minute intake call and took top-of-funnel from there. Outreach went live and ran entirely through Slack, no dashboard and no extra software, with interested candidates surfacing directly into a shared channel. The signal showed up almost immediately: by day two, five interested candidates had been surfaced, and by day three, the person Netpreme would go on to hire had already been introduced. From there the process stayed fast without cutting corners on evaluation, with an offer extended 16 days after outreach began and accepted at day 19.

“This has worked out really nicely. I love the speed. It's all been really easy. Cool to manage in Slack and to see everything configured and laid out. Love it.”

The results

  • Setup: one 30-minute kickoff call to get everything running
  • Speed to signal: five interested candidates surfaced by day two
  • The hire: the eventual hire intro'd 2 days after outreach began
  • Pipeline: 14 qualified candidates intro'd in under 2 weeks
  • Time to hire: offer extended 16 days after outreach, accepted at 19

Why it worked

For a lean, heads-down team, the win was a process that asked almost nothing of them and still delivered. One call in, a high-signal pipeline out, and a hire closed in under three weeks, without Alix having to write a detailed JD or wait on inbound.
