Talent FAQs

Tell me about the roster, how's it work?

Area of Expertise is free to join with no exclusivity once you're on the roster. We're simply an additional chance for you to get project-based work throughout the year. We hope to occasionally promote the names of our talent but do not intend make the entire roster accessible by the public.

I have new details for my profile, how do I update it?

Updates are easy and you can do them anytime. The more details and experience you can add to your profile, the easier it is for us to match you to a project. Click LOG IN in the top navigation bar, or just click here to get access.

Can I recommend someone to join the roster?

We're always on the lookout for great talent with experience in different categories. If you’d like to recommend a super talented colleague or two that would be a good fit for our collective, please feel free to send them here. 

What platforms and apps should I be familiar with using?

Most every presentation will be co-created, so familiarity with the entire Google Suite, Slack and Miro would be a good idea. 

If I bring Area of Expertise a project, will I get any money?

We love how you're thinking! We're in this together, so we offer a generous revenue sharing and bonus program to all active talent on our roster.

How will my project fee be decided?

With the client's budget and scope in mind, the CCO works with a Project Manager to assess the overall workload to complete the project. We then share that plan with you to align on an appropriate flat project fee.

What's it like to work on an Area of Expertise project?

We hope you'll make it a fun, collaborative process with lots of rapid ideating. Our goal is for each diverse voice to trust their teammates, meet every challenge with unbridled optimism, and strive for excellence in everything they do. Plus, when the project goes well, there is an opportunity for everyone on the team to get a bonus.

Will I always be on the same team?

Each team is handpicked for the project and since no two projects are the same, neither will be the team. However, if a client comes back with another project and wants the same team, we will always try hard to get the band back together.

Can I go out of town if I'm on a project?

Totally up to you! You'll most likely be working remotely anyway and we know you'll get your work done because you're a pro.

Do I have to share my work on the Area of Expertise website?

You don't have to share work. However, as we build out the individual pages for each AOE (see the WIP Beauty page), we may ask you for a key image to add to the carousel.

I'm on the roster but haven't gotten any work, what's up?

Since we match skills and category expertise to each project, it's possible that the project that fits you perfectly hasn't come in yet. Trust us, we are always on the lookout for you and more projects.

Who do I go to with questions?

If it's related to a project you're on, your Project Manager can help you. If it's anything else, shoot us a note here.
