Tell us what you need
Introductory meeting and requirements deep-dive with a personal Matching Expert. Your Matching Expert creates an Ideal Candidate Profile – a profile of the absolute perfect engineer for the job. Before we send it, you get to review and amend this profile as you see fit.
Your Matching Expert gets to work
YouTeam’s automated RFP process selects agencies with expertise that fits your Ideal Candidate Profile – partners with the right tech stack, industry experience, and engineers for your job.
Candidate pre-screening
Once the initial pool is identified, our advanced AI algorithm assists our Matching Experts in selecting the top candidates for the pre-interview stage by comparing each candidate's profile against your Ideal Candidate Profile with unmatched speed and accuracy.
The Matching Experts then pre-interview the candidates. They look at:
- Fit with your Ideal Candidate Profile: tech stack, professional development interests, industry and product preferences
- English proficiency
- Soft skills check: independence, clear communication, teamwork
- CV skill set validation: advertised skills should match actual work experience
- At customer's request: a free HackerRank skill test before the first interview
Based on the pre-screening process, your Matching Expert creates a Talent Shortlist and sends it to you for review.
You receive and review your Candidate Shortlist
You go over the candidate shortlist with your Matching Expert and see how they stack up. Each shortlisted talent profile contains a pre-interview video clip, so you can get an overview of the candidate’s experience and skills before you even meet them. Together with your Matching Expert, you select which devs you want to interview. If at any time you’re not satisfied with your shortlist - your Matching Expert will source new candidates.
Off to the interviews
Your Matching Expert joins you as you interview and screen the candidates however you see fit, including a guided technical screening (test task, live coding session, or code samples).
Hire with confidence
You made it. Your hire with YouTeam is protected by the YouTeam Guarantee: free replacement, 1-month no-questions-asked cancellation, and money-back policy.

Because it's a marketplace, YouTeam has a larger talent pool than outsourcing agencies and reasonable pricing. My Matching Expert is really proactive and understands my needs perfectly well.
