How is CONNECT different from a consulting firm, placement firm, or headhunter?
The most significant differences are that CONNECT: • Does not maintain a staff “bench” of consultants, because we believe it’s neither in your best interest, nor the client’s. • Represents both clients and consultants equally and objectively, without bias toward either party. • Provides marketing, negotiation, and fee collection services so your billable time can be increased. • Guarantees payment 30 days from the date of your time submitted. • Invests time to understand your professional goals, job preferences, and skills in advance to ensure you and a company are the best possible match for each other. • Remains involved after each match to ensure it is successful throughout the course of the engagement. • Gives you control of decisions such as where your resume is sent, with whom to interview, and final acceptance of an engagement. • Discloses all rates up front (yours, the client’s and CONNECT’s). • Offers different job types: direct-hire, independent, term consulting, and contract
