Teilur Talent has a diverse group of talent pools from which companies can recruit staff members who align with their values, mission, and vision, just like if recruiters hired them locally. While most agencies charge mark-ups of 100%+ on top of a candidate's salary, Teilur Talent never charges more than 25%.
To help align with your company's core values, Teilur Talent's candidates are bilingual and based in Latin America. Their 40 hour workweek overlaps 100% with time zones from California to New York, helping startups build an ideal team culture that strengthens the organization's workflow. Here are some of the proficiencies required for each tech position at Teilur Talent:
Data Analysts
Data analysts have experience as a BI analyst or similar role, strong knowledge in SQL and Tableau, and highly analytical and quantitative thinking, with strong attention to detail. The ability to communicate complex ideas effectively is also essential, and they must be proactive in taking ownership of projects and issues. Also, the capability to manage several projects and areas is critical to working as a data analyst. It's optional to have a bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, statistics, economics, or quantitative-focused studies.
Data Scientists
Data scientists must think critically, look at the bigger picture, and spot what is missing by taking advantage of business insights to deliver improvements. Professional experience in data science is fundamental, focused on exploratory data analysis, testing of hypotheses, and building of predictive models. Proficiency in Python is also required, as is proven experience with popular ML (Machine learning) packages.
Our thoughts on the pricing structure of Toptal
While it's not possible for us to find details about how much of what a client pays ultimately goes to a candidate, we believe clients looking for transparent and straightforward pricing may want to look at other alternatives.
Our opinion is that if they are charging a client more than $12,000 monthly for a developer, they should at the very least be giving $9,600 to the candidate, but it's likely that it's even less than that.
What Hiring Managers Should Ask Before Choosing a Talent Partner
Before partnering with any talent provider — whether Toptal, Teilur, or others — hiring managers should consider asking the following key questions:
- What percentage of the fee actually goes to the talent?
- Are replacement or satisfaction guarantees included in the contract?
- How are regional salary benchmarks determined?
- Is there full transparency in how rates are broken down?
- What is the long-term cost difference between hiring directly and through a platform?
These questions can help businesses make informed decisions and ensure that pricing aligns with both market realities and ethical compensation practices.
Growth Hackers
Growth hackers must have solid project management skills and the ability to work and collaborate with cross-functional partners. Is required for them to have community management experience and great attention to detail. They are familiar with different content management systems and social and digital analytics tools. They perform as multitaskers and team players and are passionate about the digital world.
Product Managers
Product managers work cross-functionally with key stakeholders across Marketing, Product, Sales, Customer Success, Community, and Business Development to drive product adoption with target audiences. They develop precise positioning and messaging for critical features and audiences. Also, a PM represents the voice of the customer and demonstrates a broad understanding of visual collaboration and the competitive landscape. It's crucial for them to deliver results in an ambiguous, rapidly changing environment.
QA Engineers
QA engineers are in charge of planning, coordinating, and executing activities related to testing systems and applications developed by product teams. They review and analyze system specifications and user stories to contribute to the overall testing strategy and approach. It's vital for them to execute test scripts and review results while working with developers and product managers to solve any issues.
