How to hire front-end engineers

Tell us what you need. Meet matched people. Start with a trial.

01

Talk to One of Our Client Advisors

Tell us what you need from a front-end engineer: the role, skills, seniority, hours, and goals. An advisor helps you write a clear brief.

02

Review matched talent

We show you front-end engineers who already passed Sortie checks. You can meet them if you want a culture fit chat.

03

The right fit, guaranteed

Work with your new front-end engineer match for a trial period (pay only if satisfied), ensuring they're the right fit before starting the engagement.

Why less than 1% make the network

Every applicant goes through several steps. We check their skills, how they communicate, whether they are honest, and whether they can finish real work.

01

Language and professionalism

We check that they speak clearly, work well with others, and can talk to clients.

02

Skills tests

They take tests for the exact job. We score the work and see how they handle real tasks.

03

Live interview and coding

They sit a live interview with coding. They talk through problems and write code in the session.

04

Honesty and a real project

We watch for cheating, then ask them to finish a real take-home project before they can join.
