After GitHub was acquired byMicrosoft, it experienced unprecedented growth. To keep pace, the Client Partnerships & Expert Services division needed to scale the IT team into new global regions quickly. Budgetary constraints and its costly regional IT agency partner meant GitHub needed another option.

It turned to Andela. GitHub quickly onboarded seven skilled Andela engineers across various time zones to align with their dynamic expansion needs. The experiment was a huge success.

The Andela Adaptive Hiring model helped cut GitHub’s time-to-hire by 92%, from 19 weeks to just 10 days, while reducing talent costs by over 50%. The talent quality exceeded expectations, and GitHub replaced the agency with Andela.
