The Hire Direct Program allows you to hire an expert contractor you’ve worked with as a full-time employee at your company. You can contact us to request and initiate the direct employment option.
- Fees and costs: The Hire Direct Program fee is based on 13.5% of the expert’s annual earnings (i.e., $40,000 salary x 13.5% = $5,400 service fee).
When you post your job and mention the “Hire-Direct Program” on your listing, you can initially hire an individual as an expert contractor and then convert the role into a full-time job with your company later. If you transition the job contract into a full-time position at your firm, you can pay a service fee and hire the expert permanently.
