How an HR Soloist
Recruits with Comeet
Without losing her mind
Redis Labs
Industry:
IT
Services:
Redis Cloud, open source
cloud database
Customer since:
2014
Evaluated:
Jobvite and Jazz
(formerly Resumator)
Fun fact:
Gartner Cool Vendor
for 2013
Comeet enables a startup’s recruiting department
of one to grow headcount 40% in six months.
Within a year of its 2011 founding, Redis Labs had already made CRN’s
2012 list of 10 hot tech startups. The recognition was prophetic. Hosting
cloud versions of the popular Redis and Memcached open source
databases, Redis Labs has become “one of the leading players in the
enterprise-grade Redis space” (Cloud Computing Today).
Accolades have continued to pile up as the number of paying customers
has grown past 3,500, including Atlassian and Bleacher Report, the 2nd
busiest sports website in the world.
The Great Hiring Demand
Adi Stern, an experienced startup recruiter with a decade of experience
building teams in various IT sectors, joined in October 2014 to build
Redis Labs’ HR department from scratch. Eight months later, she
remains a deparment of one - handling all HR and recruiting functions
for the Tel Aviv HQ and Mountain View, CA sales office.
Having already hired 15 new employees in her first eight months, she
will add 10 more by the end of 2015, bringing total headcount to 60.
Comeet’s collaborative recruiting platform makes it all possible.
As recruitment manager for a number of high-growth companies, Stern
was very familiar with Applicant Tracking Systems, and had hands-on
experience with several recruiting software vendors. One of her first
tasks upon arrival was benchmarking Comeet, Jobvite, Jazz (formerly
“Comeet’s ease of use is basically off the charts.”
Adi Stern | HR Manager
The Resumator), and two Israeli vendors. At the end of the ATS shopping period, Stern was sure in her
decision to use Comeet as Redis Lab's recruiting and hiring software.
“I decided to go with Comeet. I thought the other systems were too heavy and would require a
fair amount of user training. In contrast, I found Comeet very friendly and intuitive and really easy
to navigate. The positives were just too great to ignore.”
Ease of Use Tops Selection Criteria
One characteristic topped Stern’s selection criteria.
“Ease of use was and remains number one. The User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) are
both very good. I really like how Comeet has created an easy way to organize hiring workflows
to identify and hire the right person. Though it wasn’t at the top of my list, customer support has
been superb.”
Powering Growth
With Comeet providing structure and automating so many of her administrative tasks, Stern can
focus on talent identification and acquisition. She’s filled openings across the company’s org chart:
from engineering and R&D, to sales and marketing.
“I use Comeet every day for everything. I manage our entire recruiting process, starting
with filtering CVs and sending the better ones to the hiring manager. Comeet automates so
many manual tasks such as contacting candidates, scheduling interviews and coordinating
hiring managers and interviewers’ calendars. There are a lot of nice, thoughtful features like
automatically grabbing candidate photos from external sources, such as social media accounts.”
The Shortest Learning Curve in The HR Tech World
One of Stern’s biggest surprises has been the absence of any problems on-boarding new users. It’s
been painless.
“It takes about 5 minutes for new users to become comfortable. Seriously. The training curve with
other recruiting software is so much higher. In the past, I would schedule 30 plus minutes to train
a Hiring Manager. Comeet is so much different - I just send an email invite and that’s all. You just
add your teammate’s email and he starts working.”
The growth trajectory of Redis Labs in 2016 and beyond is aggressive. Adi Stern is going to contribute
to their growth by using Comeet to help her hire the kind of talent to ensure company revenues rise
upward to the right.
