Pluspunten

I worked for Guidepoint Global as a consultant for one of their investment bank clients. The hourly fees are selected by the consultant, so a good fee of $150+/hour for professional services is easily achievable. The application and invoicing process is done on-line and is very straight forward and easy. Excellent communication between Guidepoint and consultant to apply and schedule appointments. Terms and conditions emphasize ethical treatment of confidential information and are very clear.

Minpunten

Consultants need to realize that they are only paid for time spent on the phone with customers. This should be considered when setting your hourly fees. The Guidepoint terms even said that they would not pay for "waiting time" if your client is late for their scheduled call; this is the only negative term but is not right. Also, I had some initial problems submitting my application on line but they said it was a one-time anomaly that caused the problem, so I give them the benefit of the doubt on that issue.
