Edgar Bongkishiy
Recruiter, Engineer & Entrepreneur

About


I'm a recruiter and engineer, who supports companies acquire the best talents for their projects.

After working professionally as a software engineer since 2005, I acquired technical skills that help me source and identify other engineers and designers faster than most other recruiter colleagues, who mostly have a background in business or psychology.

I started in 2011 to recruit other engineers and designers for projects that I managed, basically working as a contractor and employer at the same time.

In 2014, I additionally then started recruiting experts, who worked directly for other managers and companies with an extremely high success rate, thereby eventually enabling me to predominantly focus on recruiting.

Though I am currently mainly focused on recruiting, let me also elaborate on the other roles, that presently occupy me on a smaller scale, as an engineer and as the managing director of Bolingo respectively ...

As a software contractor and employer, I acquire software engineering contracts and implement them with my network of specialists. I then create a competent, dynamic and creative team of these specialists and ensure that they communication excellently, tackle challenges fast, adapt well to changing requirements and constantly come up with new ideas.

I've been contracted by and implemented projects for companies of all sizes from small startups, NGOs to billion dollar mega corporations. Some examples are Deutsche Telekom AG, Triplesense GmbH, Home24 AG (Rocket Internet AG), RTL Group, Hivos People Unlimited, Villeroy & Boch AG and DieCrema GmbH.

As the managing director of Bolingo, a small company specialized in the production of live musical events like parties and concerts, I supervise the event managers who produce the events and create the language that addresses best the Bolingo community and fan base. I also direct designers who create the visual language for the brand. I started Bolingo back in 2012 in Cologne, Germany because of my passion for Afrobeats.

I originate from Bamenda, Cameroon and am currently based in Berlin, Germany.
