About me

News: I am invited as a speaker to wearedevelopers.com/world-congress in Berlin, meet me there in July 18th 2024!

I’m Iwan Gulenko, and I have personally placed hundreds of people in tech job opportunities since 2016. As a volunteer, I am a “Prüfungsexperte EFZ Informatik” in the Canton of Zug and I am the main driver behind klang.so and resumerodeo.com, innovative recruitment web-solutions.

However, my bread and butter is actual recruitment. I am happy to meet you personally in Zurich or anywhere in Switzerland (I particularly enjoy Lake Zug, especially in winter) to discuss your career- or candidate-needs.

I can assist you in finding the right talent and you can leverage my network in technical roles such as Java, .NET, Python, JavaScript (frontend or full-stack), Product Management, Scrum Masters, “Executive Tech” (my favorite), and even SAP roles.

Before this, I worked hands-on in the industry as a programmer for many years, so I know exactly what I am recruiting for. If you need tailored hiring assistance, feel free to contact me anytime at iwan@gulenko.com or  +41 77 986 9000 (Whatsapp) or landline: +41 55 210 33 32.

For the first time in 10 years I see jobs such as "senior backend engineer 1 year limited contract"

Usually you need 6 months to get going within a new company as a senior.

What are these people thinking

The Germans have a good proverb: "Keine halben Sachen."

No incomplete efforts.

If you do stuff, do it or DONT. Half-assed actions are by far the worst; you could be doing something else.

One way video interview. This is for a tech role.

I understand this for a sales roles. But even then....

Yet companies go "we can't find talent!"

When I talk to a jobseeker I can tell how desperate they are.

If they ramble for way too loooong about how amazing they are - very desperate.

We live in times where smaller US firms say "we bring back all roles to the US", we close Switzerland - bye". *Fun* times.
