Simple and powerful
Arc is a simple and powerful tool. It only took 1 technical interview to go to the next with the client. It's awesome.

I just had the WORST intro call all week after speaking with countless other agencies. The sales rep was rude, getting frustrated with me for giving him too much information ("I don't need all of that, I just need this number"). Any other hiring agency has been happy to have info to help narrow down matches. I also didn't appreciate the condescending tone when I wasn't ready to drop 100k+ for a role - I'm an impact tech firm servicing family businesses in emerging world countries. What about finding me people who are happy to take a pay cut to help build tech that matters? Just like there are fantastic people at NGOs, I'm sure there are fantastic devs who are into impact tech too. I've never felt so offended after a call. According that sales rep, most Arc clients are ex-Y Combinator, VC-funded North American start-ups, so I can't compete on salary with those job offers if I don't up my rate. Fine, but I shouldn't be SHAMED for not being able to, and as a hiring agency in "90 countries", Arc should be able to support my type of firm too. Rude. Don't ever use these guys. --- EDIT: After reading the company's reply, this actually just made me more infuriated. To schedule a call with ARC in the first place, you have to select your budget from the 4 radio button options Arc gives you. I'm well within the first two options - Why accept my call if you're going to shame anyone who's in the lower ranges? Waste of everyone's time. Pure Silicon Valley arrogance.

Hi Shirley, we're sorry to hear that you're unhappy with the outcome of your intro call. Unfortunately, the budget you indicated was below the average market rate for a qualified frontend developer with your required technical skills and years of experience. Arc developers are highly-qualified with extensive industry experience. They set their own rates, and unfortunately the salary you're willing to provide wouldn't be able to match their expectations. The questions we ask during the intro call are to ensure that your open roles are a good fit for our services. Again, we're sorry Arc wasn't right for you. We wish you the best of luck in finding a good match for your company.

This is the best platform to get the remote work in the times of pandemic. The best in terms of transparency, payouts, etc. Their vetting process is actually tough.

I applied to the platform. I did not had to go through the docs or guides, the whole UI is very intuitive. Staff is quite polite and professional. All in all, liked it.
