FAQs

The frequency of opportunities varies based on your expertise, client needs, and market demand. Some consultants may receive multiple opportunities per month, while others might see fewer but more specialized roles. We strive to match you with relevant opportunities that align with your skills and preferences.

An opportunity brief provides a detailed preliminary description of an opportunity presented to you, but you can also discuss additional questions with the PP&A team or in some circumstances the client before the engagement officially begins.

We have a rigorous vetting process for both clients and projects. Our team thoroughly assesses each opportunity to ensure it meets our quality standards. We also maintain open communication channels with both consultants and clients throughout the engagement, allowing us to address any issues promptly and ensure a positive experience for all parties involved.

Yes, you have the freedom to set your own rates. We encourage you to consider your expertise, market rates, and the specific requirements of each project when determining your fee. Our team can provide guidance on industry standards if needed, but the final decision on your rate is yours.

We strive to process payments efficiently for our consultants. Typically, you can expect payment within 15 to 30 days after the completion of your engagement or the submission of your invoice, whichever comes later. For longer projects, we may arrange monthly billing cycles. Our reliable payment process ensures you receive your compensation in a timely and predictable manner.

Our matching process is both systematic and personalized. We use advanced algorithms to initially filter opportunities based on your skills, experience, and preferences. Then, our experienced team reviews these matches to ensure the best fit. We consider factors such as your expertise, industry knowledge, availability, and past performance to present you with the most suitable opportunities.

Absolutely! We encourage you to keep your profile up-to-date. You can easily log into your account on our platform to update your skills, experience, rates, and availability status at any time. Keeping your profile current ensures that we can match you with the most relevant and timely opportunities.

Provide detailed information in your profile to stand out. Your preserved engagement feedback and required rate also play key roles in client consultant selection.
