Somewhere has been an incredible partner – we've brought on exceptional talent, and this team is among the best I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I can’t recommend them highly enough. If you’re not currently exploring overseas talent to expand your business, you’re likely missing out. Somewhere enables growth without the heavy overhead costs of traditional in-house hiring. Highly recommend.

I used Somewhere to hire a developer in the Philippines. The process went smoothly and the hire has been fantastic! Always great with communication, quick learner and a self starter. I’d use Somewhere again to find another hire!

We went to this company for assistance in hiring a customer support representative. Our process involved providing them with an assessment for candidates to complete. Initially, we were impressed by the candidate’s assessment performance, leading us to hire them. It's important to mention that before proceeding, we asked if it would be possible to trial the candidate first. Given that our company operates in a very niche industry, we require someone who can learn quickly - something that cannot be fully evaluated through the initial assessment alone. A hands-on trial would have allowed us to determine whether the candidate was truly suited for the role. Unfortunately, they didn't allow us to do this. The candidate left after just three days as they did not meet expectations. Given the brevity of their employment, we requested a refund, which was declined. Instead, they suggested providing us with another candidate. By this point, we had already filled the original position through referrals but decided to proceed with their suggestion for a different role we needed to fill. The second experience was worse. They consistently sent us candidates who failed our assessments, turning the hiring process into a lengthy and frustrating ordeal. Despite investing significant time and effort in reviewing assessments and explaining what we're looking for, none of the candidates met our requirements. We then requested another refund, as the process had become unproductive, and we felt it was no longer worth pursuing. Once again, our request was denied. Overall, we found their service to be inflexible and unaccommodating, leaving us with no tangible results and a poor experience.

My team recently hired a LATAM employee w/ Somewhere and we could not be happier. The process of sourcing, interviewing, hiring was smooth and professional. Our new hire is an absolute stud. Keep up the good work guys.

Possibly the worst service provider I have ever used in my professional life. To make it even worse, they actually used to be great! All of a sudden everything got so bad with them. Their way of operating, their quality of communication, and of course the candidates they offered. In the past, I referred many businesses to these guys, and I've hired 5 people from them, but now I am shocked by how awful their service level is and I will never ever recommend or use their service again because they are so unprofessional.

Somewhere produced 2 qualified candidates for an open position at my company less than 24 hours after we started our search. We've since hired one of them and have had a great experience so far. The hiring process was quick and easy. Would def recommend to anyone looking for quality overseas remote employees.

We worked with Somewhere to hire multiple roles at a specialty real estate tax services firm. Roles we hired for through Somewhere included: - virtual / executive assistant - sales development reps who do cold calls - "no code" software developers familiar with the Bubble platform In every case, the folks we hired have been incredible employees and added a ton of value for our business. And they do it at a fraction of the cost vs hiring domestically. The Somewhere team was easy to work with and filled up candidate pipelines quickly for us to review / interview. We will keep using them and highly recommend the service!

On my intro call the Somewhere sales rep told me it would be $500 total to get a VA. He explained that if they couldn't find a good VA they would refund the deposit. However, if they got one, they would keep the deposit. $500 is a steep finders fee but it seemed fair enough! They sent over an LOI to get rolling which I auto-signed and they got me a good VA within 3 days and I was happy. 500 bucks. 15 minutes of work on their end... fair trade! Then they sent me an invoice for an additional $4500 because what I thought was a LOI was actually a 5-page work agreement that said I would pay a % of the VAs annual salary. They never communicated that to me until the invoice was sent to me _____________________ I would've never used them if I had known it would be this expensive ($5000). They deceived me and now they're chasing me with a collections company. What went from a remarkable experience became a very ugly and unfortunate situation due to lack of communication, lack of transparency on pricing, and then sending a client to collections without trying to negotiate. Overall it's a bad company with a dishonest process. There are many other VA companies to go to such as: bloom-workforce.com
