Selection & Onboarding

Our Talent program is designed to offer flexible, rewarding remote work for subject matter experts around the world.

We take care to bring people into the program who are qualified and have the experience to perform the work required at the highest level of quality. As such, our selection process can contain multiple stages, and may take longer than other platforms that you may have worked with before. We respect and appreciate the time and care that you put in during this process.

Stages

1

Sourcing

This is the first stage, whereby you have indicated your interest in joining the Folio community by signing up at https://app.folioworks.com/signup or via direct contact with our recruiting team. If there are projects that may match your skills and experience, we will contact you to begin our selection process.

2

Onboarding

In this stage we collect information and perform required background checks.

During this stage, you will create your Folio profile and complete the legal and compliance requirements. To quickly create your Folio profile, just upload your resume and allow the platform to extract / convert it into a community profile. You will also be required to review work authorization, independent contractor, and BAA (if applicable) documentation. We may also require a background and / or identity check. Once you have completed all steps in the guided onboarding flow, your profile is now active and ready to review projects!

3

Training & Assessments

This stage may include one or more online assessments, interviews or practice work to determine your skills and experience.

Folio has a set of online learning and assessment material, designed by industry leading educators, that allows you to upskill and increase your project matching accuracy. There is a foundational set of material to assess your knowledge of core competencies, as well as various elective assessments that will allow you to unlock different types of project work. All material is found in the Learning tab.

Once you have completed the Core Curriculum, you are now approved to work.

Project Matching & Job Applications

In this stage, Folio's matching algorithm will surface projects that are recommended for you based on your background, skills, credentials, and completion of assessments. Projects are viewable on the Jobs page, sorted first by Best Matches. From here, you can review and Apply to projects.

Some projects may require job-specific assessments as a part of the Application process. Completing and passing this assessment is not a guarantee for selection, but does make your application qualified.

5

Project Engagement

If you are Hired for a project, you'll receive follow up instructions for how to access and complete the tasks related to it. You will have an opportunity to confirm your participation beforehand.

Please make sure you respond promptly with this confirmation request or any questions, as a delay at this stage may mean losing your spot on the project.
