1% Talent

How can you find the very best freelance web developers? CrewNew only selects freelancers and professionals of the highest calibre.

USUALLY THE TOP 1% OF APPLICANTS ARE ASSIGNED 70% OF AVAILABLE WORK.

Around 30% of projects are completed by mid-level or junior developers such as Laravel developers according to the simplicity of the project or available budget.

Our team works hard to ensure we have the very best talent on board. We like to think of ourselves as the Google of HR consultancy; we scrape them all! Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and resources such as static code checkers and tests, we filter through hundreds of thousands of candidates to identify those who are really something special. We then hand pick, test and personally verify every candidate, so we know how talented our people are.

To make sure we find the most outstanding professionals, we consider candidates from a huge variety of sources. These include learning, certification and exam sites; recruitment, HR and freelancer platforms; developer, designer and professional forums, and Quality Assurance (QA) discussion websites.

One of the key issues for clients looking for reliable, genuine and skilled freelancers to outsource their projects to is having confidence that they will find a professional who is up to the task. CrewNew takes the sting out of the search. Every candidate you see has been verified. No fake qualifications, no fabricated reviews. We test every freelancer, so we have ultimate confidence that the skills and abilities on their profiles are exactly what they can offer you.

Here are CrewNew we love the world of freelance, and the opportunities it opens up to the world of business. We know from our years of experience that there is an international team of outstanding freelance web developers with the best portfolios imaginable out there. We make it our mission to find them, offer excellent support, and connect the very best pros with the clients who need them most.

When somebody shines, we make sure to find them! We try to make the sign-up process as smooth as possible, so if you apply to work with us the chances are we already have your details in our database and can very quickly and easily create a profile.

CrewNew offers all users opportunities to earn rewards when they introduce new talent to our agency.

We are continuously improving and enhancing our web scraping techniques to source the best talent worldwide. We carefully analyse the Big Data and curate only the very best.

As you would expect from a professional agency, our HR team and Project Managers work diligently to retain A-grade developers. A developer at C-Grade has satisfactory skills but requires a high degree of support and guidance to get the job done. B-Grade developers are more experienced can work autonomously. An A-Grade developer is able not only to complete the work independently but brings the added value of being able to make recommendations to optimise the work, and the results.

We work with outstanding professionals and provide excellent support services to ensure they never wish to work anywhere else! Bringing together great clients and superb professionals gives us the most talented pool of candidates, and the ideal resource for skilled candidates to find rewarding and well paid work.

Our ethos is one of continuous development. To be a highly ranked CrewNew professional, you can’t only be good; you must be committed to constantly improving. We offer a growing database of the best learning materials and resources to support our developers in continuing to upskill.

No cheating.

We want to break away from the freelance culture where candidates can say pretty much anything they like. CrewNew is very proud of the candidates who represent our agency, and we verify all the information provided for every profile page. Whilst it is increasingly common for manual verification to avoided, we believe in never taking shortcuts. Having this added level of screening means every developer and client can work together through our platform with complete confidence.

Another growing trend is for unethical practices to be used to generate multiple fake freelancer accounts, and to generate positive feedbacks and ratings through self-hiring. You will never encounter these freelancers on CrewNew; we hand-pick and rigorously test every candidate supported by a robust system which prevents any reviews or ratings being faked.

Reference checks are an important part of what we do, with every new candidate needing to provide at least three. We understand that safety, security and transparency are essential when working with somebody new.

RATED & TESTED
Rated & Tested

“Give the right tasks to the right people who are the best at exactly what you require!”

CrewNew tests the strengths and skills of every member of our crew.

THIS INCLUDES TESTING TECHNICAL SKILLS AS WELL AS PARAMETERS SUCH AS SPOKEN ENGLISH. WE THEN APPLY A RATING SCORE OUT OF 10 AGAINST EACH SKILL.

This ensures that you only consider candidates who meet your criteria and have the expertise you require. We also verify the portfolio of each developer to confirm the authenticity of the information provided within their profile. Supporting information is collated from comments, ratings, portfolio projects and test scores to give a fully rounded summary of every freelancer we work with.

This process saves you valuable time. Our filtering tools allow you to search by your specific criteria to quickly find the freelancer with the exact skill set you need. This could be finding someone skilled in a specific programming language, framework or software you use, or having the right design or marketing experience for the job.

We also offer other parameters to fine tune your search, including indicative costs, location (and/or time difference from your base), availability, language(s) and working speed.

Laravel

LARAVEL AT LEAST 8 POINTS (OUT OF 10)

Considering the budget and limited complexity of the project, we would suggest that top experts with a rating of 9-10 might be more expensive than necessary. In this example we might recommend using a top expert for the planning and team leadership only in a larger scale project. Simple but time-consuming projects are usually best suited to more junior developers with a rating <5.

MariaDB

AT LEAST 7

MariaDB is less popular than MySQL, as an example, and has a more complex DB structure, so we would include this in initial filtering. Should we not find a perfect match, then we might remove this parameter before narrowing other filters to identify the right database of candidates.

JavaScript

AT LEAST 6

The best person for this project will preferably have an in-depth knowledge of JS, and therefore would also be able to work on the calculators. In this instance, we would exclude anybody without this specific knowledge.

English

SPOKEN AT LEAST 6 & WRITTEN AT LEAST 8

Where projects require written communication with a UK client, the candidate must possess ‘very good’ written English, and at least ‘good’ spoken English. This is a key parameter, and so we would retain this filter regardless of how else the filtering might be narrowed down.

Rating

AT LEAST 8 BASED ON THE LAST 10 PROJECTS/CUSTOMERS

Whilst our platform offers escrow buyer protection, for larger projects we only consider well-tested and experienced candidates. This ensures no risk of missed deadlines where turnaround time is critical. Newer candidates would initially be assigned small, lower budget projects to ensure that they can showcase their skills and proficiency before moving onto to bigger, more complex projects.

Communication speed

AT LEAST 7

Communication is set at a default, but if the speed is not as important as other criteria this can be turned off to prioritise other factors.

Available hours per week

AT LEAST 10H/WEEK

Dependant on the start date and duration of the project.

Hourly rate

BETWEEN 15 - 20

Considering 10h per week for at least 20 weeks.

Matching working hours per day

AT LEAST 4H

Based on [LOCATION] time zone, your working hours and developer’s time zone and working hours there should be at least 4h per each day when you both work.

How can you find the very best freelance web developers? CrewNew only selects freelancers and professionals of the highest calibre

THE ISSUES WE HAVE IDENTIFIED WITH FREELANCE PLATFORMS INCLUDE THESE SCENARIOS (SOME ARE PROBABLY FAMILIAR):

Customers provide a vague job description, or low ball the budget; this never attracts any skilful freelancers or serious offers.

Dozens of contractors provide an equally vague proposal, as they have no way of knowing exactly what work is required. Due to extensive competition, great freelancers end up proposing low budgets, with the low standards associated with them. The freelance community is often inundated with incredibly low offers from contractors which eliminates those with the correct skills and experience from applying. Often these very low bids are from freelancers with no intention of fulfilling the project, or who will produce low quality work which is not fit for purpose.

The customer is left with the task of trying to filter through their raft of proposals to try and find the ones which are genuine. For a client who is not an IT or HR expert this is a daunting task, taking a great deal of time. They may end up appointing somebody who cannot complete their project, but if they don’t have the experience to filter through the proposals accurately, they might not find this out until too late.

Money is paid into escrow and the job begins; frequent problems include late delivery and no or very little communication during the project timeframe. We expect there to be daily communication throughout production, which is essential to forecasting any bugs or mistakes, right from the early stages – nobody’s time is wasted, and the customer knows exactly how their work is progressing.

This system eliminates the risk of a freelancer disappearing in the middle of a project and removes the time and stress of trying to find a new developer to work with. With CrewNew, we work hard to make sure you will never lose time or money.

THIS CONTINUOUS CYCLE OF POOR QUALITY AND LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE IS EXACTLY WHAT DROVE US TO CREATE CREWNEW.

We know there are incredible freelancers out there and want to bring back the credibility and power of outsourcing to provide outstanding service alongside highly competitive rates.

CrewNew works with the ethos of being something in between a freelance contractor platform and a full-stack online agency; offering the very best of both worlds.

MOST EXPENSIVE SERVICE AT ALL FREELANCER SITES IS THE RECRUITER SERVICE WHERE PROFESSIONALS HELP YOU TO PICK THE RIGHT PROFESSIONAL. THAT START FROM €50 ON FREELANCER SITES AND GO UP TO €400 PER MONTH (UPWORK FOR EXAMPLE).

With projects bigger than €200 there will also always be with all plans free project management service to make sure the projects succeeds. We know that missing the professional project manager (PM) is the main reason why way more than 50% of software projects fail (not working, too late, out of the budget, buggy, users reject etc.):

Social and technical communication fails without PM between customer and developers as they speak different languages in terms of technology.

Without professional PM there will be most probably poorly written together requirements that can be understood in many ways.

Hard to pick the right technology / stack for the requirements without IT experienced PM.

LET US EXPLAIN THE PERCENTAGE OF

Failed Project

It is way higher at freelancer sites compared to professional agencies that have professional project managers.

Googling statistics of the percentage of software development projects that fail you’ll see very sad numbers around 60-80% and some even claiming around 90%.

That’s why we are combining everything that one professional agency has (PMs, company culture, common tools and practices, etc) and the top freelancers we handpick.
