Tunga receives many applications from developers throughout Africa on a daily basis. As a result, this allows us to filter out the best candidates for all the popular languages and frameworks. Consequently, we have over 65 experienced .NET developers in our pool.

.NET and C# skill verification

Every developer on our platform has passed a range of tests, that include both technical and soft skills tests. Upon your briefing we will present you with a shortlist of candidates that match your requirements. Likewise, if it is .NET you need, they will have been thoroughly tested on their .NET / C# skills. But if you like, we can run additional tests or even tests provided by yourself.

Onboarding

So if you hire one or more developers through us, they will become part of your team and you can manage them directly. Further, from our side we will make sure that all conditions are created for your collaboration to be successful: briefing, tools, infrastructure and a joint kick-off. In addition, we will take care of all supporting matters, such as salaries, taxes, contracts, etc.

Continuity

As long as the developer is on assignment with you we will keep a close eye on how things are going. That is to say, you will be assigned a Talent Manager who will regularly check in with both you and the developer(s) and can troubleshoot where required. In addition, if somehow the collaboration doesn’t work out, we can swiftly help you with an alternative.
