WHAT IS TaaS?

Talent as a Service - The Latest Talent Acquisition Model

A few years ago, you may have wondered if you would ever consider PaaS, IaaS, or SaaS solutions at your company. Today, if you haven't already adopted at least one, it might become just a matter of when. While striving to keep up with the technology trends which acquires most of our attention, the socio-economic environment of the individuals, at the core of using or running these advanced technologies, is also changing. That is where a TaaS platform falls naturally in place, a child of the marriage between the platform-economy and the gig-economy.

If still don't see this coming, did you see any of these names coming? Uber (a platform + car space = rides), Airbnb (a platform + property space = travel accommodations), or Alibaba and Amazon (a platform + suppliers = Area(s) of Service). These platforms developed scale, with the magic word – "global". TaaS is a platform + talent = service delivery, at virtually no risk to you, (client and specialist), as the platform owner assumes all risks (e.g. anything not working about an Uber ride, Uber takes care of it).

TaaS thrives on business' infrastructural advancements (e.g. increasing internet usage and speeds, mobile device usage, etc.), business' workplace adaptations (e.g. increasing appetite for online meetings, remote work, etc.), business' legal restrictions (e.g. restrictions of foreign labor intake, encouraging nationalization of labor, etc.), and workforce change (e.g. demand for flexible hours and work-from-home, increased freelancing and displeasure with office politics, etc.).

WHAT SETS 60TALENT APART?

From Recruiters

Speed: They source and vet in 2 weeks (average). We enable you to source and vet in just 60 seconds! They are 9-5 p.m., we are 24x7.
Match: They are not specialized, focusing on-site locals, thus limiting a perfect match. They then add a middleman who could distort your requirements or even make wrong picks. We are veterans of your skill being sought, specialized in just that, offering direct-to-contractors (locals, regional, global) and you choose who to talk to. We step-in at your request (offering added value)
Saving: They hide their margins which can be as much as 50%. We're rate-based, with a surcharge as low as 5%. Their rate-negotiation is inflexible. We offer multiple specialists' rates to negotiate
Flexibility: They push for a 40hr/wk only. We allow flexibility (e.g. 15hrs/wk) and on-demand projects (e.g. sporadic 5 hour tasks). You can invite the specialist on-site, or remotely collaborate on our platform, calling on us only for value-add.

From LinkedIn

Speed: They have you connect and wait for acceptance. We auto-connect you in under 60 seconds no wait!
Efficiency: They have you message specialists for introductions, then you must inquire about availability and charge rates. Our specialists know why you are contacting them, and their profiles show their rates and availability.
Match: They are not specialized and have you pay for a "premium" search, per user. We are specialized. Our search is focused and free (multiple users included, with hire subscriptions).
Scope: They only connect you. We connect you, and manage your hiring, delivery, work quality and payment. You can even do online meetings via our platform.

From Other online freelancing platforms

Match: They carry 1001 skillsets, so it's like looking for a needle in a haystack and they allow anyone to apply for your job. We carry only the specialized talent you seek. For example, if you subscribed to the Oracle community, only the Oracle specialists you see can apply.
Specialized: They are not managed or operated by Talent veterans. Our Oracle community is run by managers with extensive years of Oracle experience.
Saving: They will charge you a 5% margin but discount your specialist by 20% (25% total). We charge you as low as 5% each (10% total), and your specialist is happier while doing your job.
Scope: They only connect you. We connect you, and manage your hiring, delivery, work quality and payment. You can even do online meetings via our platform.

FAQ

No. They are independent contractors/freelancers who we manage.

It is quite easy, and two dimensional. First, enjoy our free trial on your target talent community (e.g. Oracle), and navigate unlimited specialist profiles. You could get an idea of local and off-shore hiring rates, and even post a service request/job. Second, have your company list 60Talent as a vendor to eventually pay us for the specialist you hired.

Multiple ways. Specialist profiles carry a rating provided by previous hirers. If no rating is available, you interview them just like a regular recruiting cycle. You can also call their references -- there are up to three on their profile. Finally, your payment is released only once you approve the completed job.

First, let's agree that life doesn't stop at a person. True? Second, what happens if that happens to you today? No option really, but to wait on your current vendor for a fill-back, and it could take 2-3 weeks. The good news is, on 60Talent, you hire them in hours, and if needs be, you replace them also in just hours.

Yes. Like most of your vendors, we carry liability insurance. If anything goes south, we step in.
