03How we vet
You only interview people we would hire ourselves.
Technical depth
A working interview on the substance of the role, not a quiz on syntax.
A live build
A work sample or build task, so the skill is demonstrated rather than described.
Communication
English fluency, and the ability to explain a decision to people who did not make it.
Identity & references
Verification and reference checks, so the person you interview is the person who starts.
04Common questions
iOS Developer, answered.
Do they follow the Human Interface Guidelines?
Yes, and it matters for more than aesthetics: review rejections frequently trace back to HIG and privacy requirements.
Can they work on an existing UIKit codebase?
Yes. Most production iOS apps are a mix of UIKit and SwiftUI, and we vet for both rather than SwiftUI alone.
How quickly can we start?
Most teams see an interview-ready shortlist within 48 hours to 3–5 business days, and finalise a hire within one to two weeks. The pace mostly comes down to how quickly you can review profiles and run interviews.
What does it cost?
Dedicated talent starts from $1,499/month per hire and scales with seniority and whether the role is part-time or full-time. Direct-hire placement is a one-time fee from 15% of first-year salary. Both are quoted in writing before you commit, with no upfront cost and no setup fee.
What if the hire is not right?
Dedicated hires carry a two-week risk-free trial and a free replacement within 90 days. Direct-hire placements carry a replacement window of 60 to 180 days depending on seniority. The full terms are on our Refund Policy page.
