The process

4 steps to your next hire.

You do not post a role and wait for applicants. We do the sourcing, screening and shortlisting.

1

Tell us what you need.

Submit your role requirements through a short form: role type, team size, tools you use and budget. No job description required.

5 minutes

Your part

Fill in the short form.

Our part

Review your requirements before any recruiter call.

2

We match you in 48 hours.

Our team hand-picks a shortlist of 3 to 5 candidates matched to your role, budget and timezone. You do not search. We deliver.

48 hours

Your part

Nothing. We do the search.

Our part

Vet every candidate for software proficiency, AI capability, English fluency and hardware standards.

3

Interview and choose.

Review candidate profiles, watch intro videos and interview the ones you want. No pressure. No hard close. You hire when you are ready.

Your timeline

Your part

Interview the candidates you want and choose.

Our part

If none of the first shortlist is right, we send a second one.

4

Start working. We handle the rest.

Once you hire, CloudTask coordinates onboarding and your hire starts working.

Day 1

Your part

Manage the work.

Our part

Coordinate onboarding. On Managed Staffing, also compliance, contracts and payroll.

FAQ

Before you start your search.

Can I post a role without talking to anyone first?
Yes. Submit the qualification form on the website and our team will review it. For most requests, the form provides enough information to start matching. We will reach out if we need clarification.
How many candidates will I see?
We present a shortlist of 3 to 5 vetted candidates. If none of the initial shortlist are the right fit, we send a second shortlist. If the second shortlist does not convert, we schedule a diagnostic call to refine the requirements. We do not flood you with 20 resumes. Curation is the point.
Do I talk to candidates before hiring?
Yes. You interview every candidate before making a decision. CloudTask handles scheduling and logistics. You meet candidates via video call and evaluate fit directly. We never place someone without your approval.
Is there a contract or commitment?
There is no subscription. The $299 deposit to start your search is one time, not recurring. After that, the commitment depends on the model. Direct Hire has no minimum term: you pay a one-time fee when your candidate accepts and you employ them directly. Managed Staffing is one all-in monthly rate per person. For roles that create demand, outbound SDRs, BDRs, demand generation and full-cycle AEs, Managed Staffing runs on a six-month minimum term.
Do I need to handle payroll, taxes, or benefits?
It depends on the model. With Managed Staffing, no: CloudTask handles it through the Vendor of Record (VoR) model. You receive one invoice monthly, and we handle contractor payments, compliance, and tax documentation. The person is a contractor engaged through CloudTask, not your direct employee. With Direct Hire, the person joins your payroll once they accept, and you handle payroll and compliance directly.
What if the hire does not work out?
Every hire comes with a replacement guarantee: 24 months on Managed Staffing, 6 months on Direct Hire. With Managed Staffing, if the hire does not work out at any point in the first 24 months, we replace them at no additional cost, and replacements are not capped. With Direct Hire, you get one replacement per placement, for the same job description. Same vetting standards. No re-qualification required.
