Benefits of Contract to Hire Developers

Cut down on hiring time

We do all the vetting, saving you time and effort on sourcing and recruiting.

Evaluate fit before committing

You have plenty of time to assess how the developer fits in with your culture and existing team before you hire them full-time.

14-day risk-free guarantee

If you choose to end an engagement with a contractor within the first 14 days, you won’t incur any costs. 

Save on costs

You won’t need to worry about recruiting expenses—or full-time worker benefits until you’ve seen the developer in action.

Mitigate risk

We take care of compliance and regulatory concerns until (and if) you commit to a longer-term arrangement. We can also be the Employer of Record (EOR) if you hire the developer full-time.
