We screen every contractor, and verify every skill they put on their profile. When hiring through Pilot, you know exactly what you’re getting—great engineering and design talent at every price point.
Our customers rave about developers they hired through Pilot, and truly became a part of their team. The longest running teams have stayed together for more than 4 years now.
We believe that hiring someone remote doesn’t have to be a nightmare. We’ve heard every horror story, and designed our platform to give you the confidence to work with talent anywhere.
Over the past 6 years, we developed a proprietary methodology for vetting engineering and design talent. This 7-step process is how we ensure we get it right, every time.
Writing Analysis
We analyse each profile for writing and communication skills. We believe that clarity of writing is a strong indicator of clarity of thinking.
Collaborative Projects
First introduced in our Pilot Bootcamps, these projects test how developers behave in real-life scenarios. We simulate typical collaboration challenges like gaps in specification or slow response time, and see how candidates adapt.
Skill Scoring
Contractors are evaluated separately for each skill they want to put on their profile. We use these scores to match contractors with companies they’ll be a good technical fit for.
Coding Assignments
Our coding assignments are designed to test a specific combination of coding skills (for example Ruby, Rails and React). Assignments are then peer-reviewed by senior members of the platform.
Application Review
Each application to our platform is screened by multiple members of our talent team. A single thumbs down disqualifies candidates from progressing further in their application.
Screening Interview
Our screening interviews comprehensively test your language and communication skills. All Pilot members have to read, write and speak English extremely well.
Continuous Assessment
Unlike other platforms, we don’t stop our evaluation process once someone is accepted. Our contractors are incentivised to continuously re-score in areas they want to work in.
On-demand is in demand. We believe that technology companies of the future will look beyond their backyard to find the best people wherever they happen to be. We are working on bringing that future forward.
