TRedfish Technology’s team of product design recruiters have the industry connections and expertise to identify the top talent in this industry. We match companies with the product designers who are an ideal fit for their roles by first gaining an in-depth knowledge of the company, its culture and its needs. Our network of candidates includes professionals from a range of sectors, including fintech, edtech, machine learning, and big data. Across sectors, our hands-on approach lets us find applicants with the skills for the job.
There are a wide variety of positions within the broader product design world, and Redfish has the network to hire for them all. Whether you need a UI or UX designer who can give your projects a smooth user experience, product design engineers to create and test your products, product managers to oversee development teams, or sales, marketing, and customer support professionals to connect those products to customers and clients, we can find the people who will drive business growth.
Our unique recruiting process is the secret to our success. We take pride in our ability to build relationships with candidates, going beyond their portfolios to find out how they like to work and what they want out of their career. This way, we fully understand each candidate’s needs as well as what the company looks for in employees, allowing us to make successful long-term placements. Whatever your hiring challenges, Redfish Technology has the tools, experience, and connections to meet them.
Our engaged search process normally takes four weeks between our initial discovery call with the client and when an offer is extended. Clients get a single point of contact in our team, as well as a minimum of 20 dedicated hours each week.
The process starts with a deep dive discovery with the hiring team. This conversation focuses on two aspects: the requirements of the role and the needs and selling points of the company. Once we’ve gathered this information from the client, we use a curated four-touch candidate outreach campaign and advanced AI software to source candidates from our network. By the end of the first week, we typically have at least 5 resumes to send to clients, who get the first right of refusal on any resume sourced for their position.
Once we’ve defined the traits of the ideal candidate in our discovery call with the client, we do internal planning before going to our network. This involves separating the qualifications into “must haves” and “nice to haves”, identifying competitors that employ similar product design professionals, and creating a targeted four-step multi-touch campaign. We then deploy this campaign across our database and 30,000+ company followers network, leveraging our contacts as well as AI software and both paid and unpaid resources to generate qualified leads. Along the way, we provide data analysis to the client that they can use to evaluate and shape the recruiting strategy and improve the efficacy of our messaging.
We first create a list of questions that target certain skills or traits based on our discovery call with the client. As candidates are interviewed, we recalibrate with the client as necessary to make sure those questions are attracting the right candidates for their needs.
We measure our product design hire quality by considering factors like how many submitted candidates are interviewed, how long it took to make a placement, how long the candidate remains in the role, and feedback from clients.
We have a candidate retention rate of 86% across the industries and sectors we work with.
On average, it takes 4 weeks to fill a product design role.
We utilize metrics including time to hire, resumes submitted to interviews, and interview-to-hire ratio.
Working with a recruiter allows you to hire better product design talent more quickly, as well as saving companies the time, money, and resources they would have invested in the search. Having multiple recruiters working on a search also allows the process to be scaled, giving product design recruiters the capability to fill multiple roles with high-quality candidates concurrently.
The main difference comes down to the scope of the search. In a product design executive search, the process is more specific and targeted. More stringent criteria can mean that the search takes a bit longer, but with the result of a better long-term hire who perfectly meets the client’s needs. The payment terms are also different. With executive search, the client pays in installments throughout the process, rather than after the search is completed. Executive search firms may also charge per diems and expenses.
The network of product design professionals we’ve built over 30 years in the business is our biggest differentiator. Relationships are the core of this business and we always start with our network. We also have 30,000+ followers of our company that we network through.
We give them a human-focused interaction rather than a transactional one. Our goal is to build long-term relationships, and both our clients and our candidates appreciate this personal touch.
Working with a recruiter enables you to hire the best product design professional for the role, not just the best person in your network. The recruiting landscape has changed dramatically, and our use of AI technology, targeted messaging, and other paid and unpaid resources allows us to navigate the talent market more efficiently and at a deeper level than hiring teams can using in-house resources.

Delicately. We know the value a diverse team brings to a business and understand the crucial role recruiters play in ensuring the hiring process is free from bias. This starts by identifying areas where bias could be a factor and taking steps to ensure candidates are being fairly assessed and compared. We also observe how our clients are mitigating and preventing issues and adopt the approaches that are effective, with the goal of continuously improving the transparency, fairness, and inclusiveness of our talent sourcing and placement.
welcome feedback from clients and candidates, and feel that full disclosure and honest, transparent communication is helpful for both sides. We also serve as a conduit for feedback between clients and candidates. If an issue is sensitive, we’ll clear it with the client or candidate before starting the conversation.
Our fee is 25% of the base first-year salary of the new hire.
No. Our fee is paid in full by the client, and there is no charge for product design candidates to work with us.
We maintain the confidentiality of both the hiring company and the candidates throughout the process. We sign NDAs at the start of a search and get guidance from our clients on what can and can’t be shared with candidates. All information we collect from candidates and companies is securely stored and protected from unauthorized access.
