Recruiting Dreams

Once upon a time, in the bustling tech world of Cluj Napoca, Romania, there was a man named Vlad Romuald Pop. He was a tech recruitment virtuoso, with over a decade of experience spanning the vast markets of EMEA and LATAM. Vlad had embarked on his recruitment journey within a Telco Corporation in his homeland and then ventured into the realm of Project Management. But it was in the bustling tech sector of Dublin that he truly found his calling.

 

In Dublin, Vlad became a corporate recruiter for giants like Facebook, Microsoft, Google, and Bank of America. He was a wizard at matching tech talent with the world’s top companies, but something stirred within him. A desire for more than just connecting people with jobs; he yearned to make a lasting impact in the industry.

 

Thus, Vlad packed his bags and headed for London. There, he shifted his focus to the vibrant world of SMEs and startups. It was a risky move, leaving behind the safety of corporate giants for the untamed waters of entrepreneurship. But Vlad was determined to do things differently, to challenge the status quo, and to find a way to bring out the boundless potential in people and businesses.

 

As he navigated the complexities of London’s startup ecosystem, Vlad’s unique approach to tech recruitment began to crystallise. He was determined to build a company that looked beyond immediate hiring needs and focused on long-term perspectives. He believed in finding solutions that would not only help businesses thrive but also ensure candidates found careers they were genuinely passionate about.

 

The year 2020 brought a global pandemic that disrupted the world. It was a time when many were reevaluating their lives and priorities. For Vlad, it became a moment of clarity. He realised that he needed to return to his roots in Romania, the place where his journey had begun. Romania had a thriving tech scene, and Vlad was certain that his extensive knowledge and expertise in tech recruitment could be put to good use there.

 

And so, with determination and a vision for a better way of doing things, Vlad Romuald Pop founded BrainSource. It was more than just a tech recruitment company; it was a dream realized, an IT recruitment agency! BrainSource was founded on the principles of long-term thinking, innovation, and a deep passion for helping people and businesses reach their full potential.

 

At BrainSource, the team believed that everyone possessed boundless potential, waiting to be unleashed. They saw each recruitment opportunity as a chance to make a difference, not only in the lives of the candidates they placed but also in the success of the companies they partnered with. Vlad’s journey had come full circle, and he was ready to make the tech recruitment industry a better place—one dream at a time.

 

And so, BrainSource became a beacon of hope and possibility. It wasn’t just a company; it was a testament to Vlad Romuald Pop’s unwavering belief in the power of human potential and the boundless opportunities that the tech world could offer. As the years went by, BrainSource’s reputation grew, and Vlad’s dream continued to flourish, one successful placement at a time.
