From barter wages to online interviews across the ocean. The evolution of Ukrainian independent IT hiring: seven stories from the 90s to the present
From barter wages to online interviews across the ocean. The evolution of Ukrainian independent IT hiring: seven stories from the 90s to the present
Once upon a time, to get a job in IT, all you needed was an acquaintance who would say, «Come on, let’s talk.» A resume? LinkedIn? Job sites? No, we hadn’t even heard of such a thing.
Then the market began to boil. IT hype, salary races, hunting for the best, endless interviews and the fight for every specialist… 34 years of hiring in independent Ukraine is a story of adaptation, creativity and the fight for the people who make the product. And also — millions of human stories who, overcoming the challenges of different times, got their dream job.
In a partnership project with UNITY-BARS, dev.ua has collected seven candid stories of specialists who joined the company at different times — from the first years of independence to the present day. These are stories about chance encounters, bold decisions, life-changing projects, and an atmosphere that makes you not want to leave. And what is important — all of our heroes still work for the company, despite numerous attempts by competitors to lure them away, and even return to UNITY-BARS from international employers.
