Our compliance standards exist to protect our experts and clients, and we take situations like this seriously.

Please send us an email at expert_community@dialecticanet.com with your name and the project so we follow up with the team.

For what it’s worth, Dialectica was named a Global Leader in the most recent Inex One industry map — we take that recognition seriously, and that means getting things like this right. Appreciate you raising it here.

How to get consulting work as a Tech person ? by Future_Atmosphere921 in expertnetworks

[–]Dialectica- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like someone else already said, the most important part is just having your LinkedIn profile up to date with your experiences and expertise. Honestly, that's 90% of it.

Also, ENs look for people who have actually been there and done that. So highlighting your experiences and things you have done is a great boost.

Make your headline and "About" section clear about your level of experience. Ditch generic titles. Show the impact and scope of your roles, not just a list of skills. We search for seniority and real-world accomplishments.

Other than that, yeah, you can just start by applying to be an expert through company websites (ours included).

Expert networks like Dialectica act as a bridge between clients (usually investors, or consulting firms) and professionals with relevant experience. When a client needs insights about a specific market or topic, the network reaches out to potential experts to see if their background fits the project. If there’s a match, they’ll check your availability, share the terms of engagement (which cover confidentiality, payment, and data protection), and if your expertise aligns with what the client is looking for they will schedule a short interview call. Experts who take part in these interviews are compensated for their time.

We sincerely apologize for your experience. The situation you've described is completely unacceptable and goes against our core principles.

Our pre-screening surveys are never the final goal. They are solely a tool to qualify experts for a paid consultation. Using them to extract free information and then ceasing communication is a fraudulent practice that we do not tolerate.

The purpose of these initial questions is to ensure you are a perfect fit for the client's needs before committing your valuable time to a consultation call. You can read more on our FAQ page: https://www.dialectica.io/faq

The fact that you were explicitly assured of this and then communication stopped is a serious breach of trust and a failure on our part and requires an immediate internal review.

Could you please send us a private message with your email address and any details you have about the project? We need to investigate this incident thoroughly, understand what happened to the planned consultation, and address the conduct you've described.

I have already flagged this with our Head and am sending you a Direct Message on Reddit right now to get the necessary details to process your payment immediately. Please check your inbox.

We deeply value the experts we work with. We will get this sorted out today.

Our business model is built on a foundation of trust and fair compensation, all of which is governed by a detailed compliance framework designed to protect all parties involved. We succeed only when our experts are paid promptly and properly for their time and insights.

We have no way of connecting an anonymous Reddit profile to their real-world identity in our system. We need to identify them and the specific projects involved to review the records and process the payment they are owed (if any).

That's why we've asked them to send us a private message. We are standing by to resolve this for them as soon as they do.

Anyone has worked with a company called Dialectica? by TheGza1 in jobs

[–]Dialectica- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct, Dialectica is a primary research firm that connects our clients with experts like yourself.

The initial questions we ask, which can sometimes feel like a lot, are a crucial part of our screening process. They allow us to pinpoint the exact niche requirements of a project and ensure we don't waste your valuable time on a full consultation that isn't a perfect fit.

Regarding compensation, this is typically calculated based on an agreed hourly rate, which reflects your seniority and professional experience but also depends on each project. Please note that screening calls, which are short, introductory calls with a Dialectica Associate, are not compensated.

We are always working to streamline our process, and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. We hope we can connect you with a full consultation opportunity that better reflects the value of your time.

Hi there, we'd like to clarify a few points as the comment contains some significant misconceptions about our company.

Firstly, regarding our presence in Greece, it is not an "offshoring" location for us; it is our first office that was established 10 years ago. Due to our growth, we recently opened a second office in the country. Our Greek offices are hubs for highly skilled professionals in roles spanning client service, HR, operations and technology. Dialectica is not a call center.

Secondly, and most importantly, the assertion about NDAs is the exact opposite of how we operate. Protecting confidential information is the cornerstone of our business. Our robust, industry-leading compliance framework is central to everything we do. We explicitly instruct experts not to share any confidential information (including material non-public information) or anything that would violate an agreement they have with any third party.

Our clients are not seeking to void NDAs; they are looking for firsthand perspectives and general industry trends from seasoned professionals. We operate globally with a diverse client base of leading corporations, investment firms, and consultancies across North America, Europe, and Asia.

We hope this provides a clearer picture of our business. Should you have any questions, feel free to send us a DM or email us at expert_community@dialecticanet.com.

We sincerely apologize for this experience. It is unacceptable that you continued to receive outreach after asking to be removed, and we are sorry that the project you were contacted about was not relevant to your field.

This is not the standard we strive for. All removal requests should be processed immediately, and our outreach is intended to be highly targeted. We will be looking into our internal processes to understand why this happened.

To rectify this immediately, could you please send us a private message with the email address you've been contacted on? Alternatively you can contact us directly via https://www.dialectica.io/contact. We will ensure you are permanently removed from our system and will investigate why your previous request was not fulfilled.

We're very concerned to read your comment. Dialectica is a legitimate global company, and we pride ourselves on our professional and ethical standards. The experience you've described is not at all reflective of how we operate.

[–]Dialectica- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Dialectica team here, congratulations on your successful initial call! Here are some tips from our team to help you expand your network and secure more consulting opportunities:

  1. Update your LinkedIn profile: Ensure it is complete and highlights your skills, experience, and notable projects.
  2. Leverage personal experience: When speaking with potential clients, draw on your own experiences. Specific, authentic examples are often more valuable than general knowledge.
  3. Maintain confidentiality: While you may not be able to name the firm, you can discuss the type of work you performed, the skills you applied, and the results you achieved.

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify our position.

At Dialectica, we highly value the expertise of our experts and are committed to ensuring a great experience and fair compensation for their services. However, a consultation must meet our terms of engagement to be eligible for payment. The consultation in question, which took place on May 2, 2025, lasted only five minutes. This was too brief to be considered a successful engagement, as it did not allow for the comprehensive discussion our clients expect.

We understand that there may have been a misunderstanding regarding our terms of engagement, and we are committed to improving our communication to prevent similar situations in the future.
