That alignment means standups, sprint planning, and incident response happen in real time. Offshore models, typically based in South or Southeast Asia, run eight to twelve hours removed from US Eastern, which forces asynchronous workflows that slow most IT delivery cycles. Domestic hiring competes in the same candidate pool at the same salary expectations. Nearshore sidesteps that competition without the time zone friction that offshore introduces.

Billing through the contract phase is structured as an hourly fee. If and when you convert to a direct hire, the pricing transitions to a one-time fee based on a percentage of the professional&#8217;s annual compensation, charged only once the position is successfully filled. Conversion terms are defined upfront so there are no surprises.<a href=\"https:\/\/fastdolphin.com\/contact\/\"> <span class=\"s1\">Reach out to discuss the specifics<\/span><\/a>.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"elementor-tab-title-1924\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1924\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-down\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\">What happens if we decide not to convert a candidate at the end of the contract period?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1924\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1924\"><p class=\"p1\">The engagement simply ends at the agreed term with no obligation to convert. You are not locked in to a direct hire if the fit is not right. If the candidate was not the right match, we can start a new search informed by what you learned during the contract period.

Fast Dolphin requires NDAs on every engagement. The client controls all system access scope and provisioning directly. For regulated environments such as healthcare, financial services, or government-adjacent work, the relevant compliance standards (SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST Cybersecurity Framework) govern access governance and documented processes, not the physical location of the contractor working within those controls.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"elementor-tab-title-1212\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1212\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-down\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Is nearshore staffing reliable for ongoing or long-term programs?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1212\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1212\"><p class=\"p1\">Yes. Fast Dolphin has placed IT and Engineering professionals across the Americas for over 20 years, and the majority of our clients return with new requirements. The model is not a stopgap: companies that pilot it on one requisition consistently expand it across multiple roles because delivery quality holds over time. A nearshore dedicated development team can scale up or down as your project needs change, and temporary staffing assignments can be extended indefinitely if the need becomes ongoing.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"elementor-tab-title-1213\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1213\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-down\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\">What happens if a placement does not work out?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1213\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1213\"><p class=\"p1\">For direct hire staffing, we discuss replacement terms before the search begins and do not charge until the position is successfully filled.
