Based on the information you provide and on your skill profile, we search for suitable client needs using our proprietary technology.

What is the purpose of feedback during and at the end of an engagement?

The mutual feedback helps us to develop you further and to optimize our services. This enables you to build your reputation and have reliable references from well-known companies. The feedback also helps us tailor our strength-based matching even better to your skills and interests. This increases your matching probability for follow-up engagements.

If you are not satisfied or disagreements arise during the engagement, please contact us directly and immediately. We are always available and will work to find a solution.

Can I be retained by the same client again after successfully completing an assignment?

We are happy whenever you and a client want to work together again. Whether a new engagement is possible without further steps depends on the individual circumstances of each case, due to compliance rules. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Please note that EQWAL will continue to be compensated by the company for your follow-up assignment up to a certain time period. This is necessary to be able to offer our model free of charge for you in the future. When you place a follow-up order, you will of course again benefit from our comprehensive service.

Can I be hired permanently by the same company after successfully completing the assignment?

Of course, this is possible. There are no restrictions for you. Depending on the details of each case, the client company may have to make a one-time referral fee payment to EQWAL, in line with industry standards and our client agreements.
