Turing

Talent network that matches remote engineers and other specialists, including AI-related roles, to companies.

7.0/10
Overall Score
Conditional recommend

Turing is a staffing path when you need contractors in AI-adjacent engineering and can run a real work trial. It is not a substitute for a staff role you have not defined.

Best for

Companies that need vetted remote engineers for defined AI or software work and can evaluate a trial.

Not ideal for

Executive search, or roles so vague that no trial task exists.

Verdict

Use Turing when you can describe the work, run a paid trial, and manage contractors across time zones. The match is only as good as the task you score. Skip it for unnamed AI strategy roles, or if you need someone in a specific office under a staff employment model.

Review Excerpts

Below are excerpts from public reviews. Our team scoured public reviews, forums, and chat rooms to get a balanced view of customers' experience with this company. Paid reviews and pay-for-play sites such as Clutch were excluded.

How it’s used

“We collaborated with them for acquiring mobile developers for feature upgrades in our app. The entire process was seamless because we were able to on-board the developers within 3 weeks. Moreover, Turing.com has variety of developers across tech stacks and they were able to meet our requirements.”

What people don’t like

“Honestly, As I stated, Turing was a total waste of my and my company's time. We cannot employ outside of the US or Canada, even though an agency like this. If they were upfront about what they truly are, and overseas employment agency, I would have never signed up for it.”

What people don’t like

“I would rate Turing much higher if they had viable candidates that were US residents. Their candidates are qualified, but unusable in most companies.”
