Supports offer terms, closing and the counter-offer risk. The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It is a consulting firm, so client deadlines set the pace and handover notes are expected. The team sits in Chicago. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (CT). ## What you deliver - Support the offer for a senior hire: salary data, call prep and closing conversation. - A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope - The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed - One round of edits after the company's review is included ## How the work runs - Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared - Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback - Last day: final version and handover note **Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included. ## Tools Zoom Google Docs ## Who fits - 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Contract Recruiter, or the equivalent mix of roles - Comfortable working in Zoom and Google Docs - Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate ### Nice to have - Used to short written handovers - Comfortable explaining numbers or decisions to a non-specialist reader ## Not included - Managing other contractors or employees - Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately - Travel or work at a fixed location ## How you get paid - The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice. - Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable.
