The lengthy process of hiring and deploying IT experts often significantly delays tasks and affects the timely completion of a project – in consequence, you lose time and money. At SlickCloud, we fully understand that the key to minimizing delays lies in matching the right experts to a project. That’s why we share our approach to selecting experts, which has saved our clients a lot of time and money.

Match the expert’s skills and technology with the project

Our most important step in selecting a DevOps/Cloud expert is to confirm that their technical skills and experience with specific tools are in line with the project requirements. At SlickCloud, we emphasize a detailed analysis of the project’s tech stack, or the set of technologies and tools that are used to support products and services. We select those experts who are not only familiar with these technologies, but also know how to use them in the most effective way.

Is industry experience important?

Each industry has its own unique challenges. Therefore, we select our DevOps/Cloud specialists taking into account their experience in working on projects in similar sectors. This strategy allows Each industry has its own unique challenges. Therefore, we select our DevOps/Cloud specialists taking into account their experience in working on projects in similar sectors. This strategy allows faster understanding and implementation of industry-specific requirements, resulting in fewer delays, implementation operations, and more personalized solutions.

Match the expectations of the expert with the requirements of the customer

We do realize that the success of a project depends not only on technical skills, but also on the motivation and commitment of the team, so we try to match the expectations of our experts with the nature and phase of the project. If a candidate prefers to work on projects that are in the development phase and offer room for innovation, we usually do not direct them to projects where the main task is to maintain an already existing product. By doing so, we ensure that both experts and SlickCloud clients can count on achieving common goals.
