No. A staffing agency places someone and moves on. We set up and run your satellite office in India. We find the person, give them a desk in a premium SoTalented Satellite Office, employ them, and run the 42 touchpoints that come after. You manage the work. Everything else is ours.
What does it actually cost?
Every seat is priced per person, per month, and includes salary, benefits, payroll, compliance, the office, IT and equipment. A mid-level full-stack developer is $2,800 to $4,200 a month. A mid-level QA engineer is $2,200 to $3,200. One invoice for all of it.
How long before someone starts?
About three weeks from a signed engagement. You pay nothing until they start.
Who employs them, legally?
We do. SoTalented Labs India Private Limited is the employer of record. Employment contracts, NDAs, IP assignment and Indian compliance sit with us.
What if the person is not the right fit?
The SoTalented Office Guarantee covers it. We replace them inside 30 days, no questions asked, and the replacement costs you nothing.
Do they work my hours?
Yes. Your team works in your time zone, so their day lines up with yours.
Where do they actually work?
From a premium SoTalented Satellite Office in Bangalore or Jaipur. A professional workspace with reliable internet, power backup, IT support and security in place. Not from home.
This is what building a team in India should feel like.
