09Questions
Who employs the person we hire?+
You do. You hire them directly, as an employee or a contractor, through whatever setup suits you (for example an employer of record like Deel or Remote). fitted. only runs the search.
Which countries do you hire from?+
Across Latin America, for example Brazil, Colombia and Argentina. The main hubs are within two hours of US Eastern time, so their workday overlaps yours.
Which roles do you recruit for?+
Paid media, paid search, paid social, performance marketing, growth, creative strategy and analytics. If the role is about paid acquisition, talk to us.
How good is their English, really?+
Every candidate is interviewed in English about their own work. The scorecard tells you where they stand: ready for client calls, fine for internal work, or somewhere in between.
How long does a search take?+
About three weeks from our first call to your shortlist interviews.
What if none of the candidates work out?+
You only pay the US$3,000 when someone accepts your offer. If the shortlist misses, we keep searching at no extra cost.
Agency or in-house roles?+
Both. We adapt the interview to your business model and to the scope of the role.
Tell us the role. We’ll tell you who’s out there.
A 20 minute call about what you need them to own, your budget and your timing.
