Whether you&#8217;d like an expert to set up and manage your entire site or you need to hire a designer to make smaller tweaks, finding a reputable development professional isn&#8217;t the easiest task. Many online job boards offer opportunities to contract workers, and you can find cheap work on <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/fiverr-for-wordpress\/\">Fiverr for those smaller projects<\/a>. But sometimes the results aren&#8217;t always great, which is why <strong>learning to hire WordPress developers locally is often your best bet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From development bootcamps to local meetups, big and small towns are filled with developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this example, I&#8217;ll use my hometown of Chicago. \ud83c\udfd9\ufe0f Now, you might say, &#8220;My town isn&#8217;t as big as Chicago, so I won&#8217;t have the same options.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there is some truth to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the tips and methods below work perfectly for those in larger cities, those elsewhere may need to travel a few hours to land the right prospect.

However, the limitations pop up once you start the project. I&#8217;m not saying you&#8217;re always going to have a good experience with a local WordPress developer, but this approach provides more options for vetting and communication. Let&#8217;s take a look at the benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>You can meet the WordPress developer in person<\/strong> &#8211; Would you typically hire someone without interviewing them face-to-face? A formal interview reveals character, motivation, planning, and communication skills.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You have direct contact with the developer<\/strong> &#8211; When you have a close relationship with your developer they provide timely support and guidance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>It allows you access to quality, hungry, and affordable web developers<\/strong> &#8211; Local schools and bootcamps are just the start. Many cities have Meetups where qualified, but new, developers are ready to work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>They may recommend reputable friends or associates for other work<\/strong> &#8211; Tech and creative folks tend to run in the same circles. <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/how-to-hire-freelance-writers\/\">Need a photographer or a blogger<\/a> after your eCommerce site is done? Ask your developer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Local knowledge and connections<\/strong> &#8211; Local developers know your area.

I&#8217;ve been to many tech Meetups in Chicago, and they vary drastically in the topics discussed and meeting formats. For instance, one of them was about mobile app development, while another was a jampacked contest where startups pitched their ideas in front of judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure you have a chance to find job candidates, I recommend the following steps when approaching Meetups as a way to hire WordPress developers locally:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find the organizer on Meetup.com and send them a message with what you&#8217;re trying to achieve and how your job can benefit members.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ask if it&#8217;s possible to speak about your job opportunity for a few minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If that&#8217;s not possible, inquire about how the Meetup will go. Do the organizers set aside time for networking? If not, this might not be the best recruiting Meetup for you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If given the chance to speak, touch on the scope of your project.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place business cards on the table and invite people to introduce themselves afterward.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image blog-img-std\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-opt-id=1525659426
