Skilligent has become an invaluable partner to Indian startups wanting to cut time-to-hire to build a dynamic team more quickly and efficiently. When it comes to Indian startups recruitment, recapitalization pressure is high in the startup space. Time is of the essence. A prolonged hiring cycle can result in losing the ability to hire critical resources while making it more difficult for the company to get through its early growth.
For Indian startups, delays in hiring have a direct correlation with wasted time, missed opportunities, and higher costs.

- Employees who believe in the vision and goals of the startup will contribute meaningfully over its duration.
