Hiring Checklist
- Define scope precisely — Deliverables, timeline, budget, success criteria
- Write compelling job post — Include context, requirements, what success looks like
- Screen candidates — Portfolio quality, relevant experience, communication, reviews
- Verify before hiring — Test task or paid trial for significant engagements
- Negotiate rates — Know market rates; prefer fixed-price or milestones over hourly
- Contract before work — IP assignment, NDA, payment terms, termination clause
- Structured onboarding — Access credentials, project brief, communication channels
- Milestone payments — Never 100% upfront; tie payments to deliverables
- Track and document — Log hours, deliverables, feedback for future reference
Red Flags
- Requests full payment upfront
- Portfolio inconsistent with claimed experience
- Vague answers to specific questions
- Sudden unavailability after deposit
- "Senior" applies, different person delivers
- Copied/AI-generated portfolio pieces
- Refuses video call or screen share
- Pushes to move off-platform immediately
