The vetting problem

Why consultant hires go wrong

Most NetSuite consultant hires go wrong because companies evaluate candidates based on CVs that all look the same. Every CV claims “implementation experience”, but there is a big difference between a consultant who owned complex design decisions and one who simply watched someone else make them. Standard recruitment agencies often can’t spot that difference because the CVs read identically. Identifying true capability requires an insider’s perspective – the kind built from years of managing delivery teams and grading technical execution engagement after engagement.

Hire a NetSuite Consultant FAQs

Contract or permanent for a project?
Use contract resources for defined system builds and capacity surges; hire permanent staff when your system requires an ongoing, standing owner. Our complete perm-versus-contract page guide details this framework, including the key IR35 compliance factors for UK businesses.
Can we interview against your assessment notes?
We do not forward unvetted CVs. Shortlists are delivered with detailed assessment notes, followed by a direct debrief to walk through each candidate’s technical strengths, project history and overall fit before you interview them.
What if the consultant we need is you?
If you need managed project outcomes rather than individual hires, that is a consultancy engagement rather than a recruitment placement. Our services team handles outcome-based projects, while our recruitment audit work focuses strictly on building your internal capability – keeping the two models clearly separated for complete transparency.
