Results
Mastersul also obtained a more realistic benchmark for the technology talent market.
Because the company acknowledged that it was unfamiliar with salary practices in the sector, the search conducted by Visionnaire
made it possible to assess whether the compensation initially proposed was compatible with candidates’ expectations
and to adjust the conditions of the vacancy whenever necessary.
In addition, the operational workload of Mastersul’s HR team was reduced, allowing
it to remain focused on foreign-trade-related vacancies and other internal activities. Visionnaire took over the most specialized
and time-consuming stages of the selection process, delivering validated candidates for the client’s final interview.
Finally, the project reduced the risk of an unsuitable hire. The success-fee model
aligned Visionnaire’s compensation with the actual hiring of a candidate, while the one-month replacement guarantee
provided protection if the professional did not remain with or adapt to the company.
In summary, the expected results were to hire the right professionals in less time,
improve the quality of the selection process, ease the HR team’s workload, validate the vacancy conditions against the
market, and enable Mastersul to advance the modernization of its internal systems and processes. These results were projected
based on the proposal and the context presented; the documents analyzed do not, by themselves, confirm whether both hires
were effectively completed.
Mastersul remains a Visionnaire partner to this day, providing another example of
how Visionnaire always seeks to build and maintain long-term partnerships with its clients.

Detailed Problem
The company approached Visionnaire because it was facing a backlog of vacancies after
economic activity resumed amid the context of the 2020 pandemic and could not devote sufficient attention to strategic hires
outside the usual profile handled by its HR team.
During the pandemic, the company, which had been directly affected by the downturn
in foreign trade, significantly reduced its workforce, with approximately 30 layoffs in an organization of around 130 employees.
When industries began resuming operations, several hiring demands emerged at the same time, overloading the company’s
generalist HR team.
In this scenario, operational vacancies related to foreign trade were being prioritized,
while technical positions, although important to the evolution of internal systems and processes, were not receiving the necessary
attention. These profiles differed from those the team was accustomed to handling and required specific technical knowledge,
which is why the company sought a consulting firm focused on the technology field.
The difficulty was not limited to advertising the opportunities; it also involved
understanding the IT market, defining appropriate compensation, and finding professionals with the right combination of technical
knowledge, autonomy, and adaptability. Mastersul acknowledged that it was not a technology company and was uncertain about
the competitiveness of the salary range initially envisioned. It expected Visionnaire to provide benchmarks regarding candidates’
expectations and prevailing market conditions.
The vacancies also had highly specific requirements: creating and maintaining internal
systems in C# and .NET; knowledge of front-end development, databases, and Git; and, preferably, modern development frameworks
and practices. The roles would also require assessing processes, reducing errors, improving service quality, and working with
industry-specific tools.
Detailed Solution
Visionnaire would be responsible for advertising
the vacancies, actively sourcing candidates through different channels and its professional database, reviewing résumés,
and conducting preliminary interviews. At this stage, experience, salary expectations, availability, and compatibility with
the conditions of the opportunity would be assessed. Technical or behavioral tests could also be included if Mastersul considered
them necessary. After these filters, Visionnaire would forward only the candidates deemed suitable, together with a profile
summary, so that Mastersul could conduct the interview and make the final hiring decision.
In addition to finding professionals, Visionnaire
would provide IT market benchmarks, helping Mastersul assess whether the compensation and conditions offered were competitive
in light of the expectations identified during the search. If the hired professional did not adapt to the company, or the
company did not adapt to the professional, Visionnaire would provide a replacement.
In summary, the solution was to outsource the
most labor-intensive and specialized recruitment stages to Visionnaire, providing Mastersul with pre-assessed candidates compatible
with the vacancies. This would accelerate hiring, reduce the workload of the generalist HR team, and lower the risk of selecting
unsuitable professionals.
