Last week I sent contact details of two very good Drupal developers that I know personally to a recruiter. I know at least one of them is being interviewed this week. But then I had a brainwave! Why am I doing the work of a recruitment agency for free, especially when I know how much recruitment agencies charge for their services.
I am also often asked by people who are hiring if I know of any Drupal developers looking for work.The answer to both is usually “Yes”. I seem to know lots of people in the Drupal community and am trusted enough by them to let me know if they are looking for a new job/contract (often in private so their current employer doesn’t know).I’ve a simple pricing model. If you hire a developer that I recommend, the cost will be ��€1,500 per developer. No deposit, no recurring charges, no “18% of their first year’s salary”, just a simple one-off fee of €1,500 (ex-VAT, if applicable). If you are a developer, there is no charge.If you are a Drupal developer thinking of changing jobs, fill out this form and I’ll see if I can recommend you to someone suitable.
A new Drupal recruitment agency?
Today I launched a new service, matching available Drupal developers with recruiters and agencies that are hiring.
Is there a vetting process
I am calling this service “Available Drupal Developers”. If I was cool, I’d call it ADD or something and set up a website and a CRM, and get some merch and hoodies, and blah, blah, blah. But I’m not cool, so I am keeping it all in a spreadsheet for now and a landing page on this humble website.
I know you personally (have worked with you, worked on issues together on Drupal.org, met at conferences, etc) and/or
I can validate your work from open source sources (blog posts, presentations, Drupal, GitHub)
Take my money already, Mark
My solution? I am going to charge people who are hiring, just like a recruitment agency would, for my recommendations. Except, my cost is going to be about 90% cheaper than a recruitment agency. Why so cheap? The price I am charging is a very fair price for basically telling someone that someone else is available for work.
I’m available for Drupal work
I’m keeping this simple. I’m only prepared to recommend people who can pass this threshold:
