I am looking for a recruiter to find developers.

Budget: 1000 USD Deadline: 30 days

I have familiarized myself with your process and conditions — they suit me perfectly.
I am ready to collaborate in a freelance format and work on a payment model based solely on proven results, without any upfront payments.

I am prepared to take on the active search for candidates (LinkedIn, GitHub, technical communities), the first contact, and initial technical screening, to provide you with only the top 1–5% of specialists who genuinely confirm their expertise with written responses and evidence (code, demos, cases).

Responses to screening questions:

1. Experience and search channels
I have practical experience in actively sourcing niche technical specialists (Data, DevOps, Security) in freelance and contract formats. I do not work with mass applications but focus on direct search. The most effective channels for me are LinkedIn (Boolean search, direct contacts), GitHub (analyzing repositories, commits, approaches to solutions), and specialized technical communities.

2. How I distinguish an expert from a demagogue
I assess the depth of written responses, logical thinking, the ability to argue technical solutions, and explain why they were chosen. Specificity and the presence of evidence — code, demos, real cases — are key. I filter out superficial responses and keyword sets at an early stage.

3. Willingness to work under your model
Yes, I am fully ready to follow your screening process and work without upfront payments. Payment is acceptable to me only after the candidate I find successfully completes the first short stage of work (1–2 weeks) and confirms their competence with results.

I am ready to start collaborating in the near future. Expand

Budget: 1200 USD Deadline: 14 days

Hello!
I have 10 years of experience in IT recruiting, including the search for complex technical roles.
For niche specialists, the best tools are:
LinkedIn Recruiter / Sales Navigator — deep Boolean search
GitHub / GitLab — searching for active engineers by stack
X-Ray Google search
Profile communities (Slack, Discord, Telegram)
Direct targeted outreach.

How do you differentiate an expert candidate from a "demagogue" who only knows keywords?
I use three main methods:
Specificity in experience.
I ask questions about real tasks, what exactly the candidate did, what problem they solved, and what the result was.
Analysis of the stack and role in teams.
I ask what exactly they were responsible for in the project, what their areas of ownership were.
Checking the logic of decisions.
An experienced engineer always explains why it is so, rather than just listing technologies.

Are you ready to work under the described model?
Yes, I am ready.
I am comfortable with a pay-for-results model, as well as working according to your screening process.
I am used to working with high responsibility and transparent quality criteria. Expand
