When Looney 杨志宇, a headhunter for quantitative trading firms, needed top-tier math, physics, EE & CS talent, he quickly realized everyone was fishing in the same talent pools on LinkedIn, BOSS直聘, etc, and competing against each other to become the 1st talent finder 🫠

Determined to find truly exceptional research candidates, he scoured academic forums like Google Scholar and cutting-edge research papers— tiredly spending 2 hours just to track down 2 out of 10 co-authors on a promising trading strategy paper.

That's when Looney discovered GitRoll from his previous quantitative researcher candidate, Charles Fu, when Charles was at the University of Pennsylvania 2 years ago.

With access to a global pool of 150 million coding professionals, GitRoll's “make a wish” feature let him specify exactly the talent he needed. In just 10 minutes, he found another 6 more co-authors—something that would have taken hours, if not days, using traditional methods.

Because GitRoll is dedicated exclusively to coding talent, Looney quickly built his own powerful, unique talent network and delivered successful placements for his clients 🔥

“9 out of 10 recruiters don't know engineers are actually on GitHub and GitLab, not LinkedIn. Want to stand out from other technical recruiters and reach candidates you'll never find on LinkedIn? Use GitRoll—they'll help you find everyone.” — Looney Yang, Hedge Fund Technical Recruiter at FinElite
