How Andela charges

A marketplace of screened global technologists placed into long term engagements, billed as a rate per engineer per month with the platform margin included.

How we charge

The money

One mid level engineer, two years

With Andela

Twenty four months of a rate that carries platform margin.

With Talent Navigator

One credit, then twenty four months of salary plus a flat fee, or nothing at all if you employ them yourself.

If you already have an entity in their country, our cost after the unlock can be zero.

Pick Andela if

  • You want a consultative partner to shape the engagement with you before anyone is named.
  • You are staffing a large multi year programme rather than filling a role.

Pick us if

  • You want the finding cost and the employment cost to be two separate, visible numbers.
  • You want to keep the engineer permanently without a placement premium.
Questions

Switching from Andela

Can I employ the developer myself?+

Yes. Unlock the profile, hire them onto your own payroll, and you owe us nothing further. Our payroll product exists for the case where you have no entity in their country, not as a toll gate.
