How does the hiring process work?
You tell us the role you need to fill and the skills that matter most. We source, screen, and shortlist qualified candidates, then you interview and choose who joins your team. Most clients have a hire ready to start within one to two weeks.
How are candidates vetted?
Every candidate goes through skills testing, communication assessments, and background verification before they ever reach your shortlist. We only send you professionals who are fully ready to work.
What roles can you help me hire for?
We staff a wide range of positions, including developers, marketers, designers, virtual assistants, customer support specialists, bookkeepers, and more. If you don't see a role listed, reach out and we'll help you find the right fit.
How much does it cost to hire through Tawlent?
Costs vary based on the role, experience level, and hours needed. Because we source talent globally, most clients pay significantly less than local hiring, without compromising on quality. Contact us for a custom quote.
What time zones do your candidates work in?
We match candidates to your working hours, not the other way around. Whether you need full overlap or specific coverage windows, we build your team around your schedule.
Do you handle payroll and compliance?
Yes. We manage payroll processing, contractor compliance, and payment logistics so you don't have to navigate international hiring laws on your own.
What if a hire doesn't work out?
Every placement includes a replacement guarantee. If a hire isn't the right fit within your guarantee period, we find you a qualified replacement at no extra cost.
How is this different from a job board or freelance marketplace?
Job boards and marketplaces leave the sourcing, vetting, and screening to you. We do that work upfront, so you only see candidates who are already qualified and ready to interview.
Can I hire full-time and part-time talent?
Yes. We place both full-time and part-time professionals, depending on your workload and budget.
How long does it take to get matched with a candidate?
Most clients receive their first shortlist within a few business days. Timelines can vary depending on the role and how specialized the skill set is.
Do you offer ongoing support after the hire is made?
Yes. Every client gets a dedicated account manager who supports onboarding and stays available for any issues that come up after the hire starts.
Is there a contract or minimum commitment?
Terms depend on the role and engagement type. We'll walk you through clear, straightforward pricing and contract details before you commit to anything.
What industries do you have experience staffing for?
We've placed talent across tech, e-commerce, healthcare, finance, real estate, and professional services, among others. Our recruiters match candidates with relevant industry background whenever possible.
Do I get to interview candidates before hiring them?
Yes. You review every shortlisted candidate and conduct your own interviews before making a final decision. We handle sourcing and vetting, but the hiring choice is always yours.
What happens if I need to scale my team quickly?
We can source and onboard multiple hires in parallel when you need to scale fast. Let us know your timeline and headcount, and we'll build a sourcing plan around it.
Are the professionals you place employees or contractors?
This depends on the role and your preference. We support both employment structures and will walk you through the compliance details for each.
Can I try someone out before committing long-term?
Many clients start with a trial period before extending a long-term engagement. Ask us about flexible arrangements when you're ready to hire.
How do you handle communication and language barriers?
Every candidate is assessed for communication skills as part of our vetting process. For English-speaking roles, we specifically test fluency and clarity before making a match.
Do you provide equipment or software for remote hires?
This varies by engagement. Some clients provide equipment stipends, others require candidates to have their own setup. We can help you decide what works best for your situation.
How do payments to international hires work?
We manage payment logistics and processing on your behalf, so you don't need to set up international banking or navigate currency issues yourself.
