What is Elhunt deep developer profile?
With a traditional CV, it can be difficult for organizations to accurately gauge the real skills and qualifications of remote developers. This is because traditional resumes neither reflect the academic qualifications nor professional experience of remote engineers correctly.
That’s why Elhunt has designed the AI/ML-powered ‘deep developer profiles’ which significantly helps speed up the hiring process. Companies can now filter out the best candidates without having to waste their time and effort going through thousands of CVs.
With the help of the deep developer profiles, companies can explore the strengths and weaknesses of each developer and decide if they are a good fit for their team. The deep developer profiles provide unmatched transparency into each candidate’s skills, experience, and compatibility with our customer’s assignments. The profiles also provide detailed information regarding a candidates’ educational background, professional acumen, ability to communicate, career path, their technical strengths as well as weaknesses. Basically, Elhunt helps companies know their next developers better before they hire.
The profiles are dynamically updated and every Elhunt match is based upon the developer’s actual experience.

What is the Rate Tool and how do I/can It update my rates?
Learn about the Elhunt Developer Rate Tool, and how to use it 🙂
At Elhunt, we help you build your dream career focused on your growth by using AI to match you with a multitude of high-paying jobs. We give you the autonomy to set your own rate, and the flexibility to work from anywhere.
What is the Elhunt Rate Tool?
When you update your personal information on the Elhunt portal, you’re asked to mention a ‘preferred annual rate’; i.e. how much you would like to get paid for the services you offer. Once you submit this information, the Elhunt Rate tool analyzes it on the basis of the average rate offered to remote developers of your tech stack and your experience.
Most partner companies that Elhunt works with, assign a specific budget for remote software developer roles. The Rate tool also reviews your expectations against them.
Once the set rate is reviewed, the Elhunt rate tool suggests changes, if any, to help you set a rate that will optimize your chances of being matched. In case your salary expectations exceed the expected rate for your tech stack and years of experience, the Rate Tool will prompt you to lower them for a quicker match.
How do I use the Rate Tool?
Once you receive our contact to update your rates you will have access to our Rate Tool where you can set a new rate, update your information, and boost your chances of getting matched in less than 5 minutes!
For example: If a developer can increase their chances of getting AI-matched to their dream opportunity by lowering their expected rate by ~20%, the Rate Tool will let them know.
If you’re getting the prompt, here’s how you can update your expected rates and get matched successfully it:
1. Access our Rate Tool via the developer portal or via the link you receive by email or WhatsApp 🙂
2. Review and Update your information: Review the three fields, Preferred Role, Years of Experience, and Expected Annual Rate.3. Click on Update Information
4. Wait while we process your information5. Click on Continue to update page
Once the Rate Tool reviews your new expected rate, you would be matched with an exciting job role and a suitable company.
Note: You might receive another prompt to lower your expected rate. This can happen when your submitted rate is above what we believe is a competitive for a developer with similar skills, tenure, and location.
After you update your expected rate we will send you a confirmation email with the details of the new rate.
Looking for more? I and if you have any concerns or require further clarification about your annual rate or any other aspect of your work with Turing, please contact us on our support channels!

With a desired outcome in mind, the Profile Enhancement Team shares insights on how to capture the attention of potential employers.
Elhunt’s resume builder In order to elaborate and state your work experience, Elhunt integrated a resume builder designed to intelligently arrange your skills, experiences, and past projects chronologically so that most hiring managers capture your best potential when scanning resumes. However, there’s still a lot that you can do to catch their eyes in a few seconds: Use bullets or sentences that start with action verbs. Share about your role, experience, and performance in the team. Exemplify hard skills on your hands-on contribution to the projects. We want to know what tech you used and for what. Problem-solving situations, and so on. Use metrics that show impact as the outcome of your project. We want ROI, working links, and screenshots of the product.
Other than this, the Elhunt team will reach out to you in case we need complementary or crucial information, to boost your resume and matching scores. Best practices for building your resume A good resume is honest and transparent. The PDF resume you upload for your application might only mention the jobs you’ve had, and some of your responsibilities, but hiring managers will need to know more. We want key insights on these as they speak volumes on your hands-on experience, how you have handled the technology as well as your responsibilities, and how your performance made an impact on the product or the enterprise.
A standard Elhunt resume should : Include 3+ hands-on projects which you worked on using your tested skills – briefly explaining how you have used them for each project Be around 500+ words – make sure your resume has a great volume of relevant information Back-up 3+ years of professional hands-on experience When it comes to the project, it will have three different parts → experiences, outcome, and skills. You will also have a section to add your screenshots and skills that you used on the specific projects.
Don’t: Skip or ignore your confidential projects Do not disclose any sensitive information Upload personal photos
Do: Focus on the kind of product you developed and the technology you used for it Write about your responsibilities and skills implemented on its development Upload app links Include screenshots of the products Now, your next employer will know that you not only have good test scores, but you also have a solid background doing what they are hiring you to do.
How to build trust in remote teams?
A high level of trust is necessary for remote team members to establish strong positive relationships. Strong relationships lead to a positive working environment, it supports a culture of learning and leads to good performance.
To be trustworthy: Use the communication tools provided to you effectively (e.g. emails, Slack, video conferencing, Workspace, etc.).
If the team is using a tool that is not familiar to you, research how to use it. Identify which tool is used as the team’s primary mode of communication. Set your notifications so that you are easily informed about urgent and important information. Organize and archive information so that you have a record of communication between your manager, colleagues, and/or reports.
Check your communication tools regularly. Respond promptly. It’s important to acknowledge when someone has sent you a request. If you can’t act on the request immediately, let the sender know when you will take action. Not responding to messages leaves people feeling ignored and erodes trust.
Set your working hours. In a global remote working environment, time differences will impact your work. Set your working hours and inform your colleagues when you will be available to respond to requests. Emergencies happen, so let your manager know how best to reach you outside of working hours, in case of an emergency.
Sync your calendar, so you stay updated about meetings. If you are unavailable during certain periods of the day, block that time off in your calendar. Remember to place blocks in your calendar when you take leave or when you are off sick. Use your calendar to help remind you of important deadlines and tasks.
Respect deadlines. Your actions speak louder than your words. If you can’t meet a deadline, inform your manager as soon as possible, provide good reasons for the delay, then agree and commit to a new deadline. If you don’t know how long a task will take, be honest, research how long it will take, then commit to a deadline. Get to know your colleagues.
Social interactions are important. Take time to know what’s important to your colleagues, managers, and/or reports. Small talk helps to build rapport. Positive, trusting relationships are built on good rapport.
Build confidence. Building confidence is not only about your confidence, but also about building confidence in others. Acknowledge other people’s thoughts and ideas, if someone shares an idea build on it.
People will trust and listen to you if they feel heard and respected. Don’t be afraid to share your thoughts and ideas by speaking up in meetings. Contributing meaningfully to discussions shows you are engaged and willing to contribute to the team’s success.
What are the best remote team collaboration practices?
Teamwork requires cooperation, and cooperation leads to effective collaboration. To collaborate well you need to: respect the rights of others, be a ‘team player’, be cooperative, be assertive, and exhibit polite and considerate behavior.
Good video etiquette is also essential for good remote collaboration. When you’re working remotely, the most real-time collaboration will be done via video conferencing. Make sure that you are doing what you can to make each video call as valuable as possible!
Be on time, it cannot be stressed how important this is. If you are running late or can’t make the meeting, reach out and let someone know.
Make sure your camera works and is positioned appropriately so that your whole face can be seen. Test your equipment before the meeting to make sure that everything works properly. Mute yourself when you are not speaking.
Make sure you are seated in a well-lit room and there is no loud or otherwise distracting noise in the background. Remember to pay attention.
Communication is key
Your ability to express your thoughts and ideas in a manner that is respectful, but impactful, will help you get things done easily. If you can’t do something, let people know, don’t wait for someone to ask. Never be afraid to follow up and ask questions.
Practice effective communication
Focus on listening rather than talking. Being engaged in what the other person has to say allows you to focus on understanding and connecting with the person.
Non-verbal communication is important
When you interact with others, you’re continuously giving and receiving wordless signals.
All of your nonverbal behaviors send strong messages. They can put people at ease, build trust, and draw others towards you, or they can offend, confuse, and undermine what you’re trying to convey. In a remote working environment, good virtual body language means speaking up on conference calls, turning on your camera for video chats, and responding to emails and instant messages in a timely fashion.
Avoid communication barriers
When you’re stressed or emotionally overwhelmed, you’re more likely to misread other people and send confusing or off-putting nonverbal signals.
You can’t communicate effectively when you’re multitasking.
To communicate effectively and not put the other person on the defensive, it’s important to avoid sending negative signals.
Good writing skills
Good writing skills allow you to communicate your message with clarity and avoids misunderstandings. Correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling are key in written communication, and using tools such as Grammarly help ensure that you construct sentences that are clear and concise.
How to succeed at your remote job
While talent will always be the driving force of your success, there are soft skills and intrinsic values that can take you even further. Your talent will define your value, but these aspects can help ensure that your talent reaches its maximum potential and captures the attention of your team and employers.
Be proactive
Don’t wait for someone to tell you what to do, take initiative and find ways to be productive for the benefit of the company. If you’re not sure what would be productive, ask your manager or a more senior teammate for direction.
Strive for excellence
It’s your responsibility to perform to the best of your ability. When you’re working remotely, it is also your responsibility to set up a working environment that will best enable you to succeed. Set up a working environment that has minimal distractions and allows you to be productive so you can complete your tasks on time.
Maintain a positive attitude
Your attitude not only affects your performance but will also rub off on and affect the performance of the people around you. If you notice yourself getting into a bad mood, try taking a small break to refocus and replenish yourself emotionally before coming back to work.
Be reliable
As a remote worker, it’s your responsibility to make sure that you have the correct equipment and that your equipment is up to date and working properly.
Be responsible
You are responsible for tracking your work time, especially off-keyboard time. Be accountable for the work that you deliver.

What is the Elhunt Practical Challenge?
On this article we will talk about our Automated Practical Challenge and its objectives.
The Automated Practical Test (APT) provides an opportunity for our candidates to demonstrate their skills and in-depth knowledge in a specific tech stack by giving small practical tasks (up to 45 mins duration). It aims to provide signals for quantifying your talent and capability to operate in a realistic work environment.
These tasks will present day-to-day routines that our developers may face in their work. A good example of such tasks could be: add an API to follow a user or add an API to get a user profile or add an API to send an email, etc.
In our test you will be given a task description, functionality of choosing specific technology on which you wants to implement a given task, and a set of files with predefined content.
After you submits your results our system will check his solution and return feedback automatically 🙂

Why do I need to present a Valid ID during the Soft Skill Evaluation?
In this article, we will provide you with an explanation of why it is necessary to validate your identity during our Soft Skill Evaluation.
The main purpose of identity validation is to maintain the integrity of our developers and the information exchanged during the vetting journey with Turing, preventing fraudulent activities and ensuring authenticity.
Our goal is not only to provide a service, but also to create an environment based on trust, security, and top-notch quality. By conducting identity validation, we can establish a platform that upholds these values, where every user’s identity is verified and authenticated. It is a crucial step in maintaining the accuracy and reliability of our data, as well as safeguarding the privacy and safety of our users.
During our Soft Skill Evaluation, we require users to present a valid ID to be recorded and to provide specific identification details. This is not an optional procedure, but a mandatory step according to our terms of service. This is to ensure that the person on the call is truly who they claim to be.
Identity validation promotes quality and transparency in our services by creating a fair playing field where all participants are verified. It also reduces the risk of unauthorized access, impersonation, and misuse of information.
By requesting these details, we assure you that every interaction on our platform is genuine and secure, free from fraudulent activities. This is vital not only for the security of our users but also for maintaining the overall quality and integrity of the services we provide.
We understand that sharing personal identification may raise privacy concerns. However, we want to assure you that we have stringent measures in place to protect your personal data. Your identity is verified only by authorized personnel and is kept completely confidential in accordance with our privacy policy and terms of service.
Our ID verification process is part of our commitment to securing your data and offering a transparent, reliable service. We greatly appreciate your compliance with this requirement and assure you that we handle and store your data with the utmost care.
