Our Vetting Process
Only the top 10% of PHP applicants make it through. Here's how we screen them.
Technical Screening
Day 1
We assess PHP fundamentals, stack depth, and real-world problem-solving. Candidates who don't meet the bar are filtered out immediately.
Live Coding Test
Day 2
A timed, real-world PHP challenge with code review. We assess quality, patterns, and communication — not just whether it runs.
Trial Project
Day 3–5
A short supervised trial task that mirrors actual client work. Developers who pass all three stages join our vetted pool — the only ones you'll ever see.
