How is HotGigs different from a job board or freelancer site? (top)
Job boards are more interested in filling full-time positions, while HotGigs specializes in placing contract professionals. Freelance sites must act as a middleman between you and your consultants, but the HotGigs.com staffing exchange gives you a choice: You can use your preferred staffing firms (or find others in our extensive network) or you can work directly to bring in the top-level professionals you need.HotGigs.com lets you instantly find firms and consultants and deal with them immediately, unlike many freelance sites that require a lengthy, difficult bidding process. New consultants upload their resumes into the HotGigs.com exchange every day, so our most successful hiring companies visit HotGigs frequently to discover and add new candidates to their pool. In addition, staffing firms can post their own stable of contract workers in our search engine, maximizing the number of potential candidates for your openings.
