Common Questions
What does Midwestern do?
We help tech companies build and scale their teams three ways:
Embedded Teams — Our people join your team and work inside your systems, day to day
Scoped Projects — Defined engagements like Discovery, MVPs, and technical validation with clear timelines and costs
Recruiting — We find and place full-time hires on your team
We work best with growing tech companies that need to move fast without building everything in-house
What’s the difference between Embedded Teams and hiring full-time?
Embedded team members work in your systems, under your management, just like a full-time hire. The difference is flexibility:
- Scale up or down as your priorities shift
- Skip the overhead of full-time employment
- Reduce long-term hiring risk
Full-time hires are great when you're ready for that commitment. Embedded gives you the same quality with more room to move.
How do I know which service is right for my company?
Choose Embedded Teams if you need ongoing support integrated into your team.
Choose Scoped Projects if you need help defining, validating, or shipping a specific initiative.
Choose Direct-Hire Recruiting if you’re ready to make a long-term hire but need help finding the right person.
If you’re unsure, we’ll help you determine the best fit based on your goals and growth stage.
What happens if someone isn’t the right fit?
If an Embedded team member isn’t working out, provide notice and we’ll find a replacement. Our goal is long-term success, and we stand behind the quality of our placements.
What does it cost to work with Midwestern?
Embedded Teams - Monthly per-role pricing with both US and Global options depending on your needs and budget
Scoped Projects - Fixed-cost engagements scoped to your goals
Recruiting - Varies by type (Embedded Recruiter, Contract-to-Hire, Direct Placement)
Are you a recruiting firm or a staff augmentation company?
We do both — but we’re not a traditional version of either.
Unlike most recruiting firms, we don’t just send resumes. And unlike most staff augmentation companies, we don’t operate as a body shop. Every candidate is vetted to the same standard we’d use for our own team, and we prioritize long-term fit over quick placements.
What makes Midwestern different from other staffing or recruiting firms?
1. We're not a body shop: every candidate is vetted by product and engineering leaders, not just recruiters
2. We don't just send resumes — we look for technical skill, communication, and culture fit
3. We're built to be a long-term partner, not just another vendor
How quickly can we get started?
Embedded Teams & Recruiting — We typically present qualified candidates within weeks, not months
Scoped Projects — We can kick off discovery shortly after we align on goals
What types of roles do you typically fill?
We place people across three main areas:
Engineering: front-end, back-end, mobile, cybersecurity, infrastructure
Design: UX research, UX/UI, motion, illustration
Management : Product Owners, Scrum Masters, Project Managers
Roles range from individual contributors to senior leadership. We work across SaaS, AI, edtech, logistics, ag tech, and more.
