Hiring SQL experts — questions

How much does it cost to hire a freelance SQL expert?
Freelancers set their own rates, so the cost of hiring a freelance sql expert depends on seniority and scope. Pangea's part is fixed and visible: every candidate is shown with their own rate, a flat 15% platform fee, and the all-in total, itemised before you commit. There is no placement fee, no percentage of salary, and no charge for searching, shortlisting, or interviewing.
How quickly can I hire SQL help?
Describe the role in your own words and an agent searches Pangea's vetted network immediately, returning a fit-scored shortlist with the evidence behind each match. Flag who you want to meet, they are invited, and interviews book straight onto your calendar. Most clients hiring sql experts go from first description to booked conversations the same day.
How are SQL freelancers on Pangea vetted?
Every profile behind sql experts is vetted on real work history rather than on a self-reported résumé, and only complete, currently-active profiles are eligible to be shown. Candidates stay anonymized until you decide to connect, so you evaluate the work and the fit before anyone is exchanging contact details.
Can I hire SQL help part-time or for one project?
Yes. Most engagements on Pangea are part-time or project-scoped rather than full-time — a defined piece of work, a set number of hours a week, or ongoing capacity you can adjust. You agree the shape of the engagement directly with the freelancer, and the same transparent rate breakdown applies whichever you choose.
