How RGP works

How RGP Recruits, Vets, and Manages Your Offshore Hire

Remote Growth Partners (RGP) runs your entire hire. We scope the role with you, put 1,000+ applicants through four rounds of role-specific testing, send you the top 5, then train and manage the person you pick. Most hires start 2 to 3 weeks after the fit call.

What happens, week by week.

Here's who does what at each stage, from the fit call to your hire's first review. Most of the work is ours.

After the hire

A management rhythm, not a handoff.

Our managers run your hire's week so you can focus on strategy. Here's the cadence, from the training plan to the first formal review.

Before day one

Hour-by-hour training plan

We build your hire's training plan with you, hour by hour, so their first weeks are mapped out before they log on.

Daily

Standup with your hire

A daily standup with their RGP manager keeps priorities clear and catches blockers early.

Weekly

One-on-one coaching

Each week their manager reviews progress, gives feedback, and coaches them on how to improve.

Weekly

Team meeting with you

You, your team, your hire, and our manager meet every week to align on goals and results.

Ongoing

QA on their work

We review the quality of their work and make sure things are going well, so problems get fixed early.

Twice a year

Formal performance review

Reviews every six months give your hire formal milestones to work toward.

If your hire doesn't work out, we replace them free.

You keep the seat. We run the same four-round process to find the next person, and you never pay another recruiting fee.

FAQ

Questions about how RGP works

How does RGP's hiring process work?

RGP runs the whole hire for you. We scope the role on a fit call, put 1,000+ applicants through four role-specific rounds (video screen, job preview test, deep interview, and a final test on real work), and send you profiles for the top 5. You pick your hire, and we train and manage them from day one.

How long does it take to hire through RGP?

You typically see your first candidate profiles within 10 days of the fit call. Most hires start 2 to 3 weeks after the fit call, usually about a week after the final test and your sign-off. Every candidate is tested against a process built for your role.

What does the interview process test?

Round one is a video screen for English fluency, clarity, and experience. Round two is a 30 to 60 minute job preview test built around your company. Round three is a deep interview with an RGP hiring manager. Round four tests real work: a live cold call role play for SDRs, or a paid 2 to 3 hour project for marketing and creative roles. About 20% pass round one, 10% pass round two, and half pass each of the last two, so roughly 5 of every 1,000 applicants reach you.

What's in a finalist profile?

Each finalist profile includes their video screen recording, their exercise results, and our hiring manager's interview notes. You compare finalists side by side, meet the ones you like, and make the final call.

Where are candidates based, and what hours do they work?

We recruit across Latin America, South Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and beyond, so you get the most talented people, not the nearest. Every hire works the hours you set, and we confirm availability before you meet a candidate.

What happens after I make a hire?

Before day one, we build an hour-by-hour training plan with you and get your hire into your tools. After that, your RGP manager runs a daily standup and a weekly one-on-one with your hire, QAs their work, and joins a weekly team meeting with you and your team. Formal performance reviews twice a year give your hire milestones to work toward. We also handle payroll and local compliance.

What if my hire doesn't work out?

We replace them at no cost. You keep the seat, we recruit the next person with the same process, and you never pay another recruiting fee.

Which roles does this process work for?

SDRs, GTM engineers, video editors, graphic designers, digital marketers, and other sales and marketing roles. The four rounds stay the same. The tests change to match the job.
