Why a range? It depends on the person you pick. You know the exact price before you commit.
Pay nothing until your hire starts.
Here is how the money moves.
$0 until a hire starts
Sourcing, screening and the shortlist cost you nothing.
First invoice when they start
Your first seat begins and the first invoice goes out.
One invoice, every month
Everyone in your office, on the same invoice.
30 days notice to scale down
At any time. No long-term contract, no setup fee.
The SoTalented Office Guarantee
Hire with confidence. The risk is ours.
Four promises behind every person who joins your office.
Right person
What if they are not the right fit?
We replace them inside 30 days, free.
No questions asked. Tell us it is not working, and the replacement is on us.
Right office
Where will they actually work?
In a premium SoTalented Satellite Office in India.
WeWork-grade workspace in Bangalore or Jaipur, with reliable internet, power backup, IT support and security in place.
Right management
Who looks after them once they start?
We do, across 42 touchpoints.
You interview and approve. Payroll, HR, reviews, growth and a clean exit are ours.
Right terms
What am I signing up for?
Nothing, until your first hire starts.
Then one invoice a month, no long-term contract, and 30 days notice to scale down.
Am I paying for a person or an office?
Both, in one price. Each seat is one professional who works only for you, and the price includes their desk in your satellite office, their equipment, their employment and the 42 touchpoints. Add seats and they join the same office, on the same invoice.
What is in the monthly price, and what is not?
Salary and benefits, payroll and compliance, a desk in a premium SoTalented Satellite Office in Jaipur or Bangalore, a laptop, an office suite licence and a SoTalented email address, plus the 42 touchpoints of employing someone, from sourcing to exit, on one invoice. Not in it: licences for your own tools, like design software, repositories or your CRM, and hardware beyond the standard kit, such as a workstation for heavy computing, which is quoted separately. The work itself stays yours to manage.
Why is each price a range?
Prices are a guide. Every seat is priced by role and level, and where yours lands in the range depends on the person you choose. You know the exact monthly price before you commit.
Can I scale up or down?
Yes. Thirty days notice to scale down, at any time. Adding a seat works the same way, in the same office, on the same invoice.
Can I hire part time?
No. Every seat is one full-time professional, dedicated to you and never shared. If one role would not fill a week, a flexible assistant covers research, admin and customer follow-ups in a single seat.
Your India office starts with one seat.
Tell us the role. On the first call, you get the price for the level it needs.
