When I hire a freelancer, I look for the following:

- Do they have the skills to do the specific project ?

- Are they someone I can trust to get the job done independently with minimal supervision ?

- Do they have a track record already in the area I am hiring for ?

- Do I feel like they are easy/friendly to work with ?

Tell your Manager/Director to focus on these areas. All the best.
