How It Works

From first call to first commit, in four steps

No job boards, no resume floods, no months of screening. Here's exactly what working with DevX looks like.

01
Kickoff

We learn how your team actually works

A focused consultation to understand your technical requirements, team culture, and project goals — so we match for fit, not just keywords.

  • Tech stack, seniority level, and role scope defined
  • Team culture and communication style mapped
  • Timeline and budget aligned up front
02
Shortlist

You receive a curated selection — fast

Our team identifies and pre-screens developers with the exact skills you need, saving you weeks of sourcing and screening.

  • Only candidates who pass technical vetting make the list
  • Profiles include real project work, not just resumes
  • Typically delivered within days of kickoff
03
Interview

You meet your top matches directly

Speak with vetted candidates to confirm technical ability, communication style, and team fit. You stay in control of the final call.

  • Interview as many or as few candidates as you want
  • Technical deep-dives welcome — our developers expect them
  • No obligation until you've found the right person
04
Onboard

Your developer integrates seamlessly

Your selected developer joins your workflow quickly, equipped with the tools and context to start contributing fast.

  • Working in your time zone from day one
  • Plugged into your standups, tools, and processes
  • We stay involved to make sure the fit sticks
The Vetting Bar

Every developer earns their place on the shortlist

Before a candidate ever reaches you, they've cleared three layers of evaluation.

Technical assessment

Hands-on evaluation in the candidate's actual stack — architecture, code quality, and problem solving on real-world scenarios.

Communication evaluation

English fluency, clarity, and responsiveness are core requirements — not nice-to-haves. Every candidate is evaluated for all three.

Real-world project review

We review shipped production work — systems the candidate has actually built and maintained, across multiple industries.

Zero-Risk Hiring

Backed by our quality guarantee

If a developer doesn't meet your expectations early on, we'll replace them quickly at no additional cost. No lengthy negotiations, no sunk cost — the risk stays on us, where it belongs.

  • Fast replacement if the fit isn't right
  • No additional cost for a replacement match
  • No long-term commitments — scale up or down as projects demand
