It's the team that matters!

It starts with people - pay for the best and save money.

The best ideas and the best laid plans are meaningless if you don't have the right people. Building your team like you're shopping on ebay - looking for the best deal, finding the lowest price - guarantees disappointment. While it is always tempting to go with the $5/hr bid, it's more like playing craps than being frugal. If you find a great person for that price, you win! More commonly the result is wasted time, disappointing results, and starting over with a new team.

CoderTribe's reputation engine let's you find the best people for your project. Each person's CoderScore is based on what they have done, not just what their friends say, and how relevant their experience is to your team's needs.

Get the right roles - most projects take more than one.

Vastly different skills go into delivering any web project. Miss a critical component, and your project will suffer. A talented designer can not only improve the usability and visual appeal of your application, but shorten the development time by focusing the development effort on the critical feature. Proper testing, by someone other than the developer, can reduce the chance of critical errors from making it into the released product. Great product managers ensure your building what you really need, bridging the gap between users and technology.

A team's make up depends on what you are trying to build. Who you need on your team changes as you progress through your project. CoderTribe's project templates assist you in defining the right roles for each stage of your project.

Find the Best People

Finding the right people for your project is hard.  How do you know who has the right skills and the right experience to help your project succeed?  When you get a recommendation, it would be great to see what they've done, and who you know that's worked with them.  It should be easier than it is.

With CoderTribe, you can find out what projects they have worked on that are similar to yours.  How many times they done the role you are looking for.  Even who in your network knows them. 

Real reputations

Reputation matters.  When your looking for someone to add to your team, reputation is your best indicator to how successful they will be for you.  If your a technology professional, your reputation defines who you are and what your good at.  Don't leave something this important to anonymous comments!
