Building a scalable solution with No-Code

• It began when Jakob Erikstad, managing director at StudMatch, saw that the problem organizations often face, is not knowing where to begin when looking for student interns. On top of that, there was a lack of knowledge on how to implement a structured set-up for onboarding and training them in order to provide good follow-up and relevant tasks.

“Students are such an underutilized resource today, and companies have a lot to gain from tapping into this market when recruiting. Through my own experiences, I saw that I could deliver value to the business industry as a student while also gaining relevant experience in return,”
- Jakob Erikstad (Managing Director, Studmatch)

• Explored various no-code solutions like Monday and Airtable before choosing Appfarm.
  
  
• StudMatch opted for a no-code approach to build a platform for recruiting students to internships and part-time positions.
  
  
• No-code facilitated a common language between UX designers and developers, fostering efficient collaboration.
  
  
• Enabled more roles, including business development and design, to actively participate in the development process.

“The value proposition of no-code is very strong. We could build a solution way faster than with traditional coding, and the risk of development errors was almost eliminated,”
- Jakob Erikstad (Managing Director, Studmatch)

• Rapid development process allowed Studmatch to quickly build up a customer base.
  After initial success, StudMatch has several succesful projects in progress today, ranging from small start-ups to large corporations.

• No-code solution provides scalability that accelerates plans for future growth.
