VERDICT

Should I use JobDuck?

We value your privacy - jobduck.com

Depends. For US businesses wanting a managed route to full-time overseas assistants, JobDuck could work, but its 2.4/5 'Poor' Trustpilot rating and unpublished client pricing make it a vet-first choice. Skip it if you need transparent rates, US-based staff, or short-term help.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~20 public sources; client-side pricing and contract terms are not publicly documented.
