Our thorough vetting process allows us to guarantee all our talent. All applicants must undergo an extensive screening process that measures communication, domain expertise, industry experience, and professional skills. To ensure every contractor meets our standards, the process typically takes 2-5 weeks.
Vetting Process
Many companies — both large and small — face challenges with finding quality Freelance Talent, from candidate qualifications, to team dynamics, to economics that fit their financial scale. Our Freelance Talent matching platform addresses all of these concerns.
Talent vetting process
1. Individual Assessment
Every applicant is evaluated on their language and communication skills. Applicants also take part in a personality assessment to make sure they are driven and truly passionate about their work.
2. Full Skills Evaluation
Applicants complete a series of assessments to test their problem-solving abilities and skills. To be accepted as a FlexTal™ talent, applicants must prove their level of expertise, and only those who pass with outstanding results advance to the next step.
3. Live Interview
Senior-level domain experts interview every applicant to test for domain knowledge, creativity, problem-solving, and communication skills through live exercises. Our screeners also review their resume, portfolio, and references to gain a complete understanding of the applicant’s background and ability to deliver customer success.
4. Trial Jobs
In this stage, applicants will be given a trial job to complete that will evaluate their ability to perform. A trial job will typically take 1-3 weeks to complete and offers the applicant a real-world scenario to demonstrate their expertise, attention to detail, and professional qualities.
5. Continued Success
We care that you’re consistently happy with your talent and their work. To guarantee you’ll be happy with your experience, all talent have a track record of continued customer success.
