      <description>&lt;p&gt;Outsourcing to a vendor who completes the project, employing freelancers through a marketplace, staff augmentation, or hiring your own developer through a staffing and recruiting partner are the four practical ways you can complete the development work without &lt;a href="https://www.contus.com/hire-remote-developers.php" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;hire remote developers&lt;/a&gt; locally. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They vary in terms of who controls the developer, how the provider is compensated, and how simple it is to leave. They start with the model that gives you the most control and end with the model that gives you the most:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A development shop or outsourcing company&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A marketplace for independent contractors&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Increasing staff&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A recruiting and staffing partner for direct hires&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
