Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ: Software Development Recruitment

What makes software development recruitment different from regular IT recruitment?

Recruiting for software development requires more than just searching by job titles. There is a significant difference between a Frontend Developer, Backend Developer, Full-Stack Developer, and Tech Lead. That’s why Iduet evaluates the technical stack, seniority, knowledge of architecture, and the extent to which a candidate has experience with production environments, code reviews, and collaboration in Scrum teams.

Iduet is recruiting Java developers, .NET developers, Python developers, front-end developers (React, Angular, Vue), back-end developers, full-stack developers, mobile developers (iOS/Android), and tech leads, among others.

Yes. We place both permanent developers and interim specialists for temporary projects, capacity constraints, new features, legacy modernization, and integrations.

We evaluate candidates based on their experience with languages and frameworks such as Java, C#/.NET, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Angular, and Node.js, as well as their familiarity with modern CI/CD processes. We also assess code quality, architectural knowledge, testing, security, and communication skills.

Iduet has experience in finance, SaaS, consulting, healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, retail, government, and scale-ups. The focus is on roles in which software directly contributes to product development, automation, or customer value.

Depending on the role and the availability of candidates, we can often present an initial shortlist within 7–15 business days. For interim assignments, this can sometimes be done more quickly, as we actively maintain contact with experienced independent developers.
