We’ll notify you as new profiles meet your needs. Create an Automated Talent Search for as many roles as you need, and pause or reactivate them with a click.
It’s your clay to mold
Customize & collaborate
How many hiring teams do you need? Who should be able to extend an offer? How should we organize our hiring stages? And what do we want our interview invites to say? We’ve got you, my friend! We’ll get started with some defaults, but you can make whatever edits you need from there.
Onboarding, payroll, compliance
Leave the HR administration to us
If you hire a ‘permanent’ employee directly, then your team will handle the HR onboarding, payroll, and compliance as normal. But if you hire an interim leader, fractional expert, or a temp, then you’re essentially ‘borrowing’ our employees — so that stuff’s on us!
Flex your hiring
Traditional hiring practices rely almost entirely on in-house or outsourced recruiters to fill your teams with permanent full-time employees. By contrast, GloballyHired makes it easy to also contract W2 professionals on a non-permanent and part-time basis… with or without the help of a recruiter.
Traditional staffing
Enlist existing employees to tackle strategic initiatives, potentially adding to an already overburdened workload.
Only leverage temp staffing as a stop gap for junior-level roles such as assistants and bookkeepers.
Explain your unique requirements to a recruiter and rely on them to find the right fit.
Wait for your extremely busy recruiter to clear their plate and prioritize your candidate search.
Patiently endure the weeks or months it takes to find the right candidate.
Scour LinkedIn profiles and drain your InMail credits on disinterested candidates.
Pay exorbitant placement fees to outside recruiters or staffing agencies.
Next gen staffing

FAQ’s
GloballyHired is a next generation on-demand recruiting platform where hiring teams can directly source, interview, and compliantly hire W2 professionals as contingent or permanent employees. Transcending conventional hiring barriers, GloballyHired offers employers direct pathways to fill temporary, interim, fractional, and direct hire roles swiftly and efficiently, bypassing the need for traditional recruitment intermediaries. By modernizing the staffing process, we offer substantial cost savings and increased operational efficiency. Combining the hiring speed of freelance job platforms with the best aspects of traditional staffing services, GloballyHired represents a strategic leap forward empowering the on-demand hiring of professional roles.
GloballyHired prioritizes accessibility, offering a barrier-free platform for both job seekers and employers. Job seekers can sign up and find work at no cost, broadening access to diverse job opportunities. Employers can sign up, communicate with, and interview talent without any fees, paying only upon hiring. Our transparent pricing for temporary and direct hires ensures clear cost expectations, often resulting in significant savings over traditional staffing agencies. For job seekers, an optional $2.99 fee for verified status through Verif adds credibility but is not required for platform use. This approach maintains open access while enhancing employer and job seeker experiences, embodying the flexibility of freelance marketplaces and the efficiency of on-demand hiring.
In a word? Compliance. Did you know the IRS penalizes employers who pay freelancers on a 1099 basis for work the IRS classifies as W2? Yep. And the fines are hefty! Intermediary agencies bridge that gap by employing these workers directly, and then contracting them to organizations who need ‘non-traditional’ employees. We’re that “agency” …but without the recruiters or sales staff. (Or the really high markups. ????)
Additionally, hired staff can qualify for health benefits and 401(k) plans, enriching their job experience. Treating them as part of your team allows direct schedule management and meeting integration, fostering stronger bonds and easing their transition to permanent roles if desired. Unlike 1099 contractors, who typically remain independent, W2 employees are more open to temp-to-perm arrangements and direct hires, offering a smoother path to long-term team integration.
You don’t have to! There’s no necessity to exclude your recruiters from your process. In fact, our platform is intentionally crafted to support both internal talent acquisition teams and hiring managers effectively. Our extensive background in the staffing industry has shown us that TA teams often encounter intense pressures and heavy workloads. This situation can lead to organizational bottlenecks that slow down the candidate delivery process, impacting the ability of some teams to swiftly fulfill their hiring objectives. In response, we’ve developed our platform to equip hiring teams with the tools to directly source, interview, and recruit talent, thereby significantly optimizing the hiring journey.
Furthermore, we strongly advocate for integrating your in-house recruiters within your team on our platform. Recruiters can effortlessly join your hiring endeavors, contribute insights on talent, manage talent folders, or even spearhead their own teams by extending invitations to collaborate. Our aim is to maximize flexibility and efficiency, guaranteeing that, whether you’re navigating the hiring process solo or alongside a recruiter, your business can advance at the speed it demands.
We represent a revolutionary hybrid model, merging the best aspects of freelance platforms and traditional staffing agencies to offer unparalleled advantages. GloballyHired distinguishes itself by delivering substantial cost efficiencies over conventional staffing approaches. Our streamlined hiring process significantly accelerates the recruitment timeline, introducing unparalleled efficiencies that traditional staffing frameworks simply cannot compete with.
Our platform empowers employers with direct access to on-demand interactions with potential hires, enabling instant job offers with just a simple click. We provide all the critical information necessary for making well-informed hiring decisions, including detailed references and ratings. This level of accessibility ensures that employers have the agility to respond to their business needs promptly, all while bypassing the conventional barriers posed by sales representatives or recruitment agents.
The mechanisms by which you find, interview and hire talent on GloballyHired is very similar to how you would do so a freelancer platform. Where we mainly differ is that freelancer platforms typically facilitate work that pays on a 1099 basis.
They’re great for companies that need help with building a WordPress website, writing some ad copy, building a financial model, or some other distinct project. But you wouldn’t go to a freelancer site if you need interim help while your VP Marketing is on maternity leave, or you need a fractional CFO to support you through a funding raise. You’d hire a recruiting agency to find that talent for you… or come to GloballyHired and do it yourself.

Will you need the same talent in 6 or 12 months as you need today? Do you have enough work and budget to fill a 40-hour week… or just 15? Yeah. That’s what a flexible workforce is all about!
