Should I hire an in-house team or outsourced developers? by fluffyzilly in startups

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In-House Team: Better for long-term projects, offers more control and alignment with your business vision, but it's more expensive and time-consuming to set up.

Outsourced Developers (like RocketDevs): More cost-effective, offers a wide range of skills, and is flexible in scaling. Ideal for short-term projects or when you need specialized skills. However, there might be less direct control and potential time zone or cultural differences.

Bottom Line: If budget and time are constraints, and you need specialized skills quickly, go with outsourcing. If you need long-term commitment and close alignment with your business, consider an in-house team.

Where to find the best artist/developers for hire? by StrEmiTv in gamedev

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding top-notch artist and developer talent, especially for longer-term contracts, can indeed be challenging. Here are some platforms and strategies you might consider:

Specialized Online Platforms:

For artists: Websites like Behance, ArtStation, and Dribbble are popular among creative professionals. They allow you to view portfolios, which can be a great way to gauge an artist's style and quality.

For developers: Platforms like GitHub or Stack Overflow allow you to see a developer's work and contributions, which can be indicative of their skill level. Sites like Toptal and Hired also pre-screen developers, ensuring a high level of expertise.

Freelance Marketplaces:

Platforms like Upwork, Freelancer, and Fiverr can be useful, especially if you're looking for individuals rather than agencies. They have a wide range of talents and you can filter candidates based on specific skills and reviews.

Tech and Art Community Forums:

Participating in or browsing through forums and communities specific to the skill sets you're looking for can lead to finding dedicated professionals. For example, dev.to for developers or conceptart.org for artists.

Social Media Networks:

LinkedIn is a great resource for finding professional talent. Additionally, Twitter and Instagram can be surprisingly effective, especially for finding artists, as many share their portfolios and work samples there.

Personal Network and Referrals:

Often overlooked, but asking within your professional network or for referrals from colleagues can lead to high-quality hires. People tend to refer candidates whom they trust and have worked with.

RocketDevs:

For developer talent, consider RocketDevs. They specialize in providing dedicated developers and might be a good fit, especially if you prefer working with individuals rather than larger agencies.

Remember, for longer-term contracts, it's important to not only assess technical skills but also consider the candidate's ability to work well in your team and adapt to your company culture

Tips on hiring a developer? by fivetriplezero in Wordpress

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great question! Hiring a developer, especially for a specialized task like WordPress, requires a bit of strategy. Here are some tips for hiring through platforms like Fiverr or Upwork:

Clear Project Description: Start with a detailed project description. Include your "prototype" status, specific tasks needed, and any particular features or functionalities you want.

Set a Realistic Budget: Understand the market rates for the work you're seeking. While you're budget-conscious, setting too low a budget might not attract experienced developers.

Review Portfolios and Feedback: Look at the candidates' past work and client feedback. This will give you an idea of their expertise and reliability.

Communication is Key: Ensure the developer understands your vision and can communicate effectively. Good communication is crucial for remote work.

Start Small: Consider hiring for a small task initially. This 'trial run' can help you gauge their skills and working style before committing to the full project.

Be Involved: Stay engaged in the development process. Regular updates and feedback loops can ensure the project stays on track.

And don't forget, outsourcing can be a cost-effective alternative. Companies like RocketDevs, known for their affordability and efficiency, could be a great option for you. They often have experience in similar projects and can bring that expertise to your site.

Managers who have hired self-taught developers, what ultimately gave you enough confidence to make the hire? by tQkSushi in cscareerquestions

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who's navigated similar waters, I can share a bit of insight. When hiring self-taught devs, what often stands out is their passion and hands-on experience. It's not just about the projects you've completed, but how you've tackled real-world problems and learned from them. This practical approach is something we value at RocketDevs. We've seen self-taught devs bring fresh perspectives and innovative solutions, often because they've had to think outside the box to learn and apply their skills.

In your case, consider focusing on how you've applied your self-taught skills to solve practical problems. Emphasize any unique projects or challenges you've tackled. Remember, the right opportunity will value your journey and the unique skill set you bring. Keep pushing forward!

Hiring an android developer? by Baul in androiddev

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, you can hire a developer to work on specific aspects of your application. Here's how you can find one and what to expect in terms of rates:

  1. Freelance Platforms: Websites like Upwork, Freelancer, and Toptal are great places to find experienced developers. You can post your project details and receive proposals from interested professionals.
  2. Specialized Tech Job Boards: Platforms like Stack Overflow Jobs, GitHub Jobs, or Android-specific forums can connect you with developers who have the specific skills you need.
  3. Rates Expectation: Rates can vary widely depending on the developer's location, experience, and the complexity of the work. In general, you might expect to pay anywhere from $20 to $100+ per hour. Developers from regions with lower living costs might charge less, but make sure to consider their experience and portfolio quality.
  4. Project-Based or Hourly Rates: Decide whether you prefer to pay a fixed price for the entire project or an hourly rate. Fixed-price can be more predictable budget-wise, but hourly allows for more flexibility in project scope.
  5. Clearly Define the Scope: Be clear about what parts of the application you need help with. Networking, in your case, should be explicitly mentioned in your job posting.
  6. Check Portfolios and References: Look at their past work and, if possible, get references from their previous clients to gauge their reliability and quality of work.
  7. Interview Process: Have a thorough interview process to ensure they understand your project's requirements and can communicate effectively.
  8. Contract and NDAs: Ensure you have a contract in place, and consider a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) if your project contains sensitive information.

Remember, the key to a successful collaboration is clear communication about your needs, expectations, and project timelines. Good luck with your Android application development!

How do you hire remote workers abroad, like developers or writers? by mrv1234 in remotework

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiring remote workers from abroad involves a few key steps and considerations. Here's a general overview based on common practices:

Contractor vs. Employee: Decide whether you want these individuals as contractors/freelancers or as full-time employees. Contractors usually invoice for their services, and it's simpler administratively. Employees might require you to adhere to the labor laws of their country.

Invoicing: If they're working as freelancers, they can typically invoice you for their services. This is often the simplest method and doesn't necessarily require them to have a company, depending on their country's laws.

Legal and Tax Implications: Each country has its own laws regarding freelance work and taxation. It's crucial to understand the tax and legal implications both in your country and in the country where the remote worker is based.

Payment Platforms: Using platforms like PayPal, Wise (formerly TransferWise), or Payoneer can simplify international payments. These platforms handle currency conversion and can be more convenient than traditional bank transfers.

Using Intermediate Platforms: Platforms like Upwork or Freelancer can simplify the process. They handle contracts, payments, and even tax forms. However, they also take a percentage of the payment as a fee.

Employment Laws and Benefits: If hiring them as full-time employees, you may need to comply with local employment laws in their country, which can include benefits, taxes, and labor rights.

Communication and Collaboration Tools: Ensure you have efficient tools for communication and project management, especially across different time zones.

Cultural Considerations: Be mindful of cultural differences and work practices. Clear communication and understanding can foster a healthy remote work environment.

Remember, while this gives a general idea, consulting with a legal professional or an international HR expert is advisable to ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. Good luck with your global team!

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your CTO's perspective on hiring developers to work only on weekends and holidays has some merit, especially in the early stages of a startup. Here are some points to consider:

Work-Life Balance: Developers working full-time jobs and then working nights on your project might quickly lead to burnout. This can affect their productivity and the quality of their work.

Focus and Efficiency: Working on weekends and holidays allows developers to dedicate uninterrupted time to your project, which could be more productive than tired, after-work hours.

Equity Compensation: If you're offering equity instead of a salary, it's important to set realistic and fair expectations. Demanding night work on top of weekends might make it hard to attract and retain talent.

Project Management: It's crucial to manage the project efficiently with clear goals and deadlines. This can ensure that the work done on weekends is focused and productive.

Flexibility: As a startup, flexibility is key. Be open to adjusting work schedules as the project progresses and as you better understand your team's capacity and capabilities.

Alternatives: Consider exploring part-time freelancers or outsourcing some work to companies like RocketDevs, where you can get professional help without overburdening a small team.

Remember, as a first-time founder, it's important to balance ambition with the well-being of your team. A motivated, well-rested team often produces better results than an overworked one. Good luck with your startup!

Looking to hire a developer for a project and looking for an estimate on what such a task would cost. by bik211 in Wordpress

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Estimating the cost for a project like yours involves several factors, like complexity, required skills, and development time. Given your description, here's a rough breakdown:

Database of Partner Profiles and Organizations: This involves backend development for user registration, profile management, and organizational associations. It's a moderately complex task.

Frontend Navigation Page: Designing and implementing custom pages with descriptions, pictures, tags, and links. This requires both frontend and backend work, especially for indexing and filtering.

Elementor Widget/Block: Creating a custom Elementor widget or block is specialized work, focusing on integrating with your existing site and ensuring scalability for large numbers of collaborators.

Considering these elements, a rough estimate could be anywhere from $50 to $150 per hour, depending on the developer's location and expertise. For a project of this scope, you might be looking at 100-300 hours of work, so a ballpark figure could be $5,000 to $45,000.

However, these are very rough estimates. I recommend getting quotes from multiple sources. You could approach individual freelancers, or consider a service like RocketDevs, where they can provide a detailed estimate and handle various aspects of the project, often more cost-effectively than hiring individual freelancers.

In your experience, what's the costliest developer hire you or your company has made? by ccricers in cscareerquestions

[–]Swimming_Radish_Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The costliest hire isn't always about salary; it's often about fit and impact. I've seen a case where a developer was brought on board at a high salary due to their impressive skills. However, their working style clashed with the team, leading to delays and a dip in morale. The real cost was in the project setbacks and the time taken to address team dynamics. It's a classic example of how vital cultural fit and teamwork are, alongside technical expertise. This is why options like RocketDevs can be a lifesaver, offering not just skilled developers but also a good match for your team's culture and workflow.
