There’s no one cause for the greatest talent demand-supply divide in tech history today. Most reasons thrown here usually revolve around skill shortages, the great resignation, technology evolving too fast, and trouble finding exact skill combinations.

But, Muoro, a software talent acquisition, and management firm offers a counter-reason — they propose there is no talent shortage, rather companies are simply hiring wrong. Let’s consider the facts, the number of software developers in the world has been growing constantly year on year and is expected to reach around 28 million by 2023, up from 23 million in 2018. Companies also have the option to create remote software engineering teams, greatly increasing their reach and productivity potential. The two factors combined should have created a talent surplus, not a deficit.

So, what’s wrong here? Firstly, new working norms and cultures have evolved faster than we could have anticipated. Work from anywhere, co-working spaces, BYOD, etc have become ubiquitous properties of the corporate world in a relatively short span of time. Such democratization of the workforce is unprecedented and offers exciting new opportunities, but is hard to predict as well.

The modern developer has far more options than their older peers ever did. They can look for and work with companies on the opposite side of the world, and many today are choosing to do so. While companies too can build distributed dedicated software development teams, it's trickier for them. The challenges of screening and onboarding remote developers, getting people from different backgrounds and nationalities to work together across time zones, communication, and effective collaboration derail such efforts.

The people at Muoro realized that this new reality that has been thrust upon us required a radically new approach to recruitment. “What we found was that not only were legacy recruitment techniques grossly outdated, but the technology they used was lagging behind as well,” says Abhishek Gupta, Marketing Manager at Muoro.

Recruitment practices in most companies haven’t changed much from what they used in the 1990s. These methods fail to take into account the sheer number of resumes online job postings get, generational differences, and modern worker expectations. Many companies are also unaware of the advances made in recruitment technology that can make hiring remote developers far simpler.

This is where Muoro’s innovative new Engineering-as-a-Service steps in. EaaS as the company calls it seamlessly blends the latest advancements in artificial intelligence with modern cloud-based project management tools and time-tested, yet innovative recruitment methods to quickly build agile, dedicated software development teams for clients around the world both affordably and in record time.

“Resume screening is by far the biggest stumbling block when you’re trying to create remote software engineering teams. When parsing through hundreds or thousands of resumes, there’s always the risk of overlooking great applications or falling for fanciful cover letters. Muoro has automated applicant pre-screening with its own AI system. Our machine learning technology is capable of matching skills, experience level, and traits to each job requirement fast and it’s only getting better every time it goes through a dataset,” says Abhishek.

Hiring managers no longer need to spend hours or days combing through each resume and can focus on building great remote software engineering teams by leveraging the insights gained from the AI system’s analysis.

Even though the company is a couple of years old, it has built dedicated software development teams for companies like Cognizant, KPMG, Tesco, Microsoft, and Nike. The secret to Muoro’s success lies in leveraging modern cloud and AI capabilities while remaining grounded. The company is currently offering a free 2-week full feature trial for brands looking for nimble remote software engineering teams.
