How hiring works
- Day 1: a 30-minute kick-off call about the role and your team.
- Days 2 to 3: we write the brief and a test built around your work.

Questions
Will they work in our own accounting software?+
Yes. You invite them as a user and remove access whenever you need to.
Can they replace our external accountant?+
Usually they support your accountant rather than replace them. They keep the books ready so your accountant spends less time cleaning up.
How do you handle confidentiality?+
Everyone we place signs a confidentiality agreement, and work they do for you belongs to you.
