Introduction

A pioneering car rental giant, DriveNow, faced a critical challenge: their rental app's constant crashes were causing a loss of a whopping 15,000 daily users. Traditional hiring methods had brought in developers who could only talk about code but couldn’t fix it. With $2M in annual losses from app downtime, the success of this rental giant depended on building a world-class tech team to save their business.

Challenges Faced

Resume Overload

HR spent 30+ hours weekly sorting 500+ resumes, most irrelevant, causing employee burnout and slowing hiring.

Technical Bluffing

Candidates impressed in interviews but failed real tasks, revealing a major gap between talk and technical ability.

Team Conflicts

Mobile and backend teams clashed over candidate priorities due to the lack of a unified evaluation framework.

Timezone Chaos

Coordinating interviews across 9 global time zones caused delays of 6+ weeks, losing strong candidates.

App Quality Crisis

Bad hires cost around $50K each, leading to lost users, app bugs, and urgent external contractor fees.

Solutions

AI-Powered Resume Parsing

LeoHire filtered 500+ resumes in minutes, surfacing only the most relevant candidates and saving HR 30+ hours per week.

Custom Technical Assessments

Role-specific assessments were created to test real skills before interviews, reducing the risk of candidates bluffing their technical expertise.

Collaborative Evaluation Scorecards

LeoHire’s shared feedback system ensured mobile and backend teams aligned on candidate fit—reducing internal conflict and delays.

Automated Time Zone Scheduling

Smart scheduling synced calendars across nine time zones, eliminating delays and speeding up global hiring cycles.

Data-Driven Hiring Insights

LeoHire’s dashboards tracked candidate performance across roles, helping avoid costly mis-hires and improving overall app team quality.

The AI didn’t just save our app – it saved our company. Their coding tests revealed a so-called 'senior developer' who couldn’t even write basic error handling while uncovering an incredible candidate who had built bike-sharing apps as a hobby. The collaborative hub finally helped our teams agree on hires. Our app’s crash rate dropped 90%, downloads doubled, and we saved $800K by cutting down on emergency hires. Never letting go of this secret weapon who pulled us out of technical debt.
