DistantJob

DistantJob is an IT staffing agency that connects U.S. and Canadian companies with remote developers recruited worldwide. It places full-time remote developers and engineers across major tech stacks, and says it has 15+ years of experience as a recruitment agency. It describes itself as the first remote placement agency in the world.

Its process covers sourcing and screening, ending in a shortlist of three candidates. It reports an average time to hire of 14 days and says 80% of its clients return for new IT hires. It also handles international payroll and compliance and acts as Employer of Record, managing local labour contracts, tax withholdings and monthly payroll. Placed developers work under the client's management, and DistantJob says it does not direct their work.

The company was founded by Sharon Koifman and has offices in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, and Newark, Delaware.
