What do you like best about Aquent Talent?

What I love most about Aquent Talent is how easy it is to use and the quality of the freelancers available. The platform is intuitive, and the freelancers are top-notch, thoroughly vetted, and reliable. Plus, the support team is always there to help if I run into any issues, which gives me peace of mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aquent Talent?

If I had to pick something to dislike, it would be the cost. Aquent Talent is a bit pricier compared to some other platforms. While I do feel like I’m getting my money’s worth in terms of quality, it would be great to see more flexible pricing options, especially for smaller projects or budgets. Also, having a broader range of experts in some niche areas would make it even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aquent Talent solving and how is that benefiting you?

Aquent Talent solves the headache of sifting through countless applications to find the right freelancer. It's been a huge benefit for me because it connects me directly with skilled professionals who are a great fit for my projects. This has saved me so much time and energy, letting me focus more on the actual work rather than the hiring process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aquent Talent?

I can honestly say there isn't anything I dislike about it since we have been customers. Everything is napoed out in a way that there is no confusion in how everything works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aquent Talent:

I would highly use Aquent Talent, if you are a small business owner like me. As a small business owner, I do not have the resources or capacity to have in house full time employees for certain things, so Aquient Talent is a huge help as a means to talent services.

Aquent Talent has helped my business with finding the employees we are looking for. It makes things easier for us because their system has been accurate with the candidates provided to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Aquent Talent helped with:

I've been doing side gigs for Vitamin T for about 7 years, now, doing email campaign design and coding for some of their clients. It's been a great, independent side gig to earn me some spending money. Their reps are super friendly and helpful, and their HR and payroll systems are easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aquent Talent?

Whenever I reach out to the folks at Vitamin T with a question on timecards or benefits, etc., they're always quick to get back to me and have a friendly affect toward me despite the fact that I've been entirely remote and have never met anyone there in person. They continue to find me new side gigs when they think it's a fit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aquent Talent?

There's not much I don't like. If I were to be picky, I was recently contacted about a new gig, and I haven't heard anything back about it since the rep submitted my name, so perhaps a little more follow up would be nice? But such is common in the industry anyway - client firm goes a different direction, and I don't hear anything more about it. Still, even a follow up communication indicating that would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aquent Talent:

Like any firm that places remote, part-time or full-time talent - it's all about staying in constant communication with them to the point where they can't forget you, when they have an opportunity. Keep your profile and resume/CV and portfolio up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aquent Talent solving and how is that benefiting you?

I help Vitamin T when their clients reach out to them with email marketing campaign template needs, and then they reach out to me to see if I'd be interested. From there I work with the client firm directly. The benefits, besides the obvious (getting paid) is the client is happy and I continue to get more work in the future, so everyone wins.

Vitamin T is helping with my search for employment in Los Angeles. It's not uncommon for companies to cross-post job adverts across multiple sites, and Vitamin T contains job posts I've never seen before! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
