Contract work, with a recruiter who asks before acting

We place contractors in software, data and AI, cloud, QA, security, enterprise platforms, delivery and design roles with companies in the US and India — and employ and pay you for the length of the assignment. Registering is free, and nothing goes to a company without your consent.

Why contract through us

What you can hold us to

Most contractors have a story about a recruiter who sent their CV somewhere unasked, or an invoice that was paid late. These are the commitments we make so that does not happen here.

Nothing sent without your yes

We tell you the company and the role before your profile goes anywhere, and submit you only after you agree. Every time.

Screened by people who do the work

Your technical screen is a working conversation with someone in your field, not a keyword check — and you get feedback afterwards whatever the result.

Paid on a fixed calendar

Your pay calendar, rate and payment method are written into your contract before day one. You submit timesheets; we run the payroll.

One named contact

One person for anything employment-related, with a check-in in your first week and monthly after that.

Early notice on extensions

Extensions and end dates are raised with you well before the last week. If a contract is ending, we start on your next role while you are still on this one.

No cost to you

Contractors never pay us anything. Our fee comes from the hiring company and never comes out of your agreed rate.

    Technical screen

    Run by someone who works in your field. It is a working conversation about real problems, not a quiz, and you get feedback afterwards whatever the result.

    Submission

    We never send your profile to a company without telling you who it is and getting your yes first. You will not find out from a hiring manager that you were submitted somewhere.

Questions contractors ask us

No. Contractors never pay us anything. Our fee comes from the company, and it never comes out of your agreed rate.

Never. We tell you the company and the role, and submit you only after you say yes. Every time.

On a fixed pay calendar agreed before your start date, for the hours approved on your timesheet. The calendar, the rate and the payment method are all in your written contract.

It depends on the role, the client and the country. Some engagements are employment-only; others allow a contract with your own company. We tell you which applies before you are submitted, never after.

We raise extensions or the end date with you well before the last week. If the contract is ending, we start looking for your next role while you are still on the current one.

Yes. Most roles are filled from people already registered with us before they are ever posted. Tell us what you want next and we will contact you when it comes in.
