What sets us apart

Specialists in IT – not in CVs.

Leie Folk combines recruitment with real technical expertise. Candidates are not assessed only on their CV and a general recruitment interview – where needed, also by a professional with experience from the IT industry.

  1. Technical and professional assessment

    The technical part of the selection is handled by Michael Jacobsen, who has a solid professional background and experience in IT.

    Candidates’ skills are assessed before they are presented – so that you meet people who can actually do what the role requires.

  2. More precise matching

    We look at more than just job title and CV. In our search, we take into account:

    • Skills
    • Technologies
    • Experience
    • Seniority
    • Certifications
    • Languages
    • Availability
    • Preferred work model

  3. Specialised in IT

    We focus on technology roles and work with, among other things, software development, cloud and platform, infrastructure, cybersecurity, IT operations, data and AI, and related IT fields.

    This allows us to understand technical needs better and assess how relevant candidates are more precisely.

    Everyone on the shortlist has agreed to be presented for this particular opportunity.

Tailored to you

Close follow-up – wherever the expertise is.

As a small company, we can follow you closely. And we search where the expertise is – in Norway and, if you wish, internationally.

Personal follow-up
