Frequently asked questions
Plexus is a specialist crypto and Web3 recruitment agency. Since 2017 we've built global talent pipelines across 40+ countries and offer flexible, partnership-based fee structures rather than one-size-fits-all pricing.
Where do you source your candidates from?
At Plexus, we source crypto and Web3 candidates through deep networks built across the industry since 2017. Most candidates come directly through our relationships, referrals, and targeted outreach, not job ads or mass LinkedIn messaging.
What specific countries do most of your candidates come from?
Plexus places crypto and Web3 candidates globally, not just in traditional tech hubs. We’ve placed people in 40+ countries and counting, whether you’re hiring remote-first or need candidates in a specific location.
How do you source candidate profiles?
Plexus doesn’t wait for crypto and Web3 talent to come to us. The best candidates are usually already employed and not actively job hunting, so we proactively headhunt using our existing network, industry intel, and search tools tailored to each brief.
How quickly will you send us profiles?
Once you brief Plexus on a crypto or Web3 role, you’ll usually see relevant candidate profiles within 24–72 hours, depending on the complexity of the brief. Turnaround can be faster for high-priority or urgent roles.
What are your fees?
Plexus doesn’t use a one-size-fits-all pricing model for crypto and Web3 recruitment. Fees depend on the role, scope, and the kind of partnership we’re building together, so it’s best to jump on a quick call to talk it through.
Why are your fees typically higher than other agencies?
Since 2017, Plexus has built the biggest dedicated Web3 recruitment team in the industry and placed candidates in over 40 countries worldwide. You’re paying for that experience, not guesswork, and you’ll still work directly with a specialist who knows your niche. That means faster, higher-quality hires with complete reliability.
What happens if my hire doesn’t work out?
If a hire made through Plexus doesn’t work out, we offer a 100% rebate period, a window to make sure you’ve got the right candidate. If things don’t work out in that time, we’ll return the fee. Simple as that.
Why Plexus?
Since 2017, we’ve built the biggest Web3 recruitment team, and we do things differently.
Every Plexus consultant works a dedicated ‘patch’, whether that’s Rust engineers, product leaders, or DeFi quant talent, so they know their niche inside out. They track the market, know who’s hiring, who’s moving, and who’s open to the right offer.
Backing them up is our in-house delivery team, whose sole focus is building and maintaining our deep talent network. That means when you come to us, we don’t just start searching, we already know the people you need.
With offices in London and Miami, we cover hiring across the UK, US, and beyond, from engineering to C-suite.
