How do you vet freelancers?

Freelancers complete a three-step vetting process before they are recommended for your role.

Background Assessment

We score all candidates on their work experience, education, and presentation to make sure they both have relevant experience and are polished.

Interview

All candidates must complete an interview with our talent team to verify their technical and soft skills. For technical roles, candidates are required to complete a case study to prove their competency.

Role Review

Before we recommend a freelancer for your role, we conduct a thorough assessment of their skills and sample work to make sure they are qualified to support your need.

Additionally, we curate our talent network based on client feedback. Only the best freelancers win multiple projects.
