QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED

Resource Augmentation — Answered Directly

Roles, vetting, control, and how to get started.

What is resource augmentation and how is it different from a staffing agency?

Resource augmentation means embedding pre-vetted, fully employed professionals directly into your team — without the hiring overhead, compliance burden, or long-term commitment of a full-time hire. Unlike a staffing agency that forwards CVs and steps away, StratEdge is the legal employer of every augmented resource. We handle employment contracts, payroll, statutory compliance, and ongoing account management. You direct the work entirely. We carry everything else.

What roles can StratEdge place — and how quickly?

We place engineers (full-stack, DevOps, data, AI/ML, QA), designers (UI/UX, motion, branding), marketers (SEO/SEM, content, growth), finance professionals (bookkeepers, analysts, FP&A), and delivery leads (PMs, scrum masters, program coordinators). Our 14-day SLA applies to shortlisted profiles — if we miss it, your first month is free.

How are candidates vetted before I see their profile?

Every candidate goes through a 3-stage screen: (1) skills assessment relevant to the role, (2) live technical or domain interview with our internal team, and (3) reference check. You only see profiles that have cleared all three stages. We also verify employment eligibility and compliance standing before onboarding.

Can a resource augmentation hire convert to a full-time EOR employee?

Yes. If you decide to bring an augmented resource on as a full-time employee, we can convert them to our EOR model under the same engagement. There are no conversion fees — just a transition to the applicable EOR plan pricing.

What is the difference between Resource Augmentation and EOR — do I need both?

EOR is for hiring full-time permanent employees in other countries — we become the legal employer. Resource Augmentation is for embedding pre-vetted professionals on a flexible basis without committing to permanent headcount. Many clients start with RA and convert key resources to EOR as the engagement matures.

Do I lose control of the resource once StratEdge is involved?

No. You maintain full day-to-day operational control — task assignments, tools, standups, sprints, everything. StratEdge handles the employment infrastructure: payroll, contracts, compliance, and account management. Think of us as the back-office for your extended team.

Can we start with one resource and scale up?

Yes. There is no minimum team size. You can start with one specialist and scale to a full squad as your needs evolve. Contracts are month-to-month with no lock-in, so scaling up or down is always on your terms.
