What is Try & Hire at mpeople?
Try & Hire at mpeople is a flexible model that gives you the opportunity to ”try” a specialist in practice before you decide on a permanent hire. It is a risk-free way to test both competencies and the chemistry between the candidate and your team – without committing to a long-term contract from the start.
Instead of classic recruitment, the consultant starts on a trial period, typically 3-4 months, working as an integrated part of the team. If it works for both parties, you can take over the employment directly.

How Try & Hire works at mpeople
01
You define your needs
You start with a clear description of what you are looking for: role, competencies, tech stack, team dynamics, cultural fit and expectations. You decide entirely.
02
mpeople finds the right match
Based on the role you are looking for, we screen and match the candidates. We present 2-3 profiles that fit what you have defined. From there you choose who will start the trial period.
03
The trial period begins
The chosen specialist starts with you as a consultant, typically for 3-6 months. You only pay an ongoing hourly rate – no start-up fee or hidden costs.
04
Ongoing dialogue
We hold monthly check-ins with you and the consultant, so you can give feedback and we can adjust if necessary – but it is always you who decides whether it works.
05
Conversion to permanent employment
If you wish to keep the consultant and hire them permanently, this happens at no fee. You take over the employment directly – we handle the transition smoothly and free of charge.
06
No conversion fee
If it is not the right fit, the collaboration with the consultant ends without any financial loss for you – so you have gained real value during the trial period.
