11 hires in 18 months

Case study · Teclead Ventures
11 developers in 18 months, through better outreach.
Teclead Ventures was sourcing developers primarily on LinkedIn and XING, with weak reply rates. With Talentwunder the channel and the tone changed: email instead of platform inbox, AI-personalised messages instead of templates.

- Multi-network sourcing and AI outreach
For a long time, recruiters at Teclead Ventures sourced and approached talent primarily on social networks. Platforms like LinkedIn and XING gave them reach but insufficient reply rates. The team was looking for a solution that offered both a large talent pool and a more targeted approach.
The challenge
Platform inbox as bottleneck.
LinkedIn and XING delivered reach but not enough replies. For a tech recruiting team that has to ship senior hires reliably, that is an operational problem. What they needed: a channel with a higher reply probability and an approach that does not sound like mass outreach.
The solution
Email outreach plus AI-personalised messages.
The Talentwunder app enabled the team to run more effective outreach via email and to use AI to write engaging, personalised messages.
- 01
Better outreach
By switching to email communication, Teclead Ventures achieved significantly higher reply rates than on LinkedIn and XING.
- 02
Efficiency after platform updates
The app updates in November 2023 further accelerated candidate search and outreach.
- 03
AI-assisted messages
Using AI led to more effective and more individual messages, and the success rate rose measurably.
Results
11 developers hired in 18 months.
With Talentwunder, Teclead Ventures not only solved its previous recruiting hurdles but also significantly improved its ability to hire qualified developers quickly.
Higher reply rates
Switching from platform inboxes to email outreach noticeably lifted the response per outreach wave.
Better messages in less time
AI-driven personalisation replaced template copy-paste. More relevance per message, less writing time per recruiter.
In short
Talentwunder as a platform for technical recruiting.
Teclead Ventures found a solution to its previous recruiting challenges with Talentwunder and at the same time significantly increased the speed at which it can hire qualified developers. The platform proved decisive for the success of its technical recruiting.
