Frequently Asked Question

What is the compensation structure for the videos recorded?

We pay between 50 to 120 USD for every hour of the final content. This compensation includes preparation time as well. The compensation may vary based on the experience, profile, and content quality.

When do I receive the final payment once I have delivered my work?

Once you have delivered the assigned content, our team takes 24 hours to review the content and approve your payment. Usually, we make payments on a biweekly basis.

What would be the currency for payment?

We are based out of the United States, so we pay in USD.

What is the mode of payment?

We pay via direct deposit, PayPal, and Venmo, depending on the instructor’s choice.

I am not based in the United States. Can I still join HICounselor as an instructor?

Yes. We have instructors from more than ten countries with us.

Am I supposed to edit the videos before delivering them to HiCounselor?

No, you do not need to edit the videos. We have our in-house editing team. You can record videos and send them to us. Our editing team will go through the video and make necessary edits to make it look clean and professional. We understand that editing can be painful; we want our instructors to focus primarily on content creation.

What is the timeline/delivery date for these modules?

Ideally, the timeline for delivery is 4-6 weeks for completing the whole course, which can be extended or reduced depending on the amount of content you are working on. We generally have more than one instructor on one subject so that work gets shared and no one feels the burden of work.

What is the purpose of asking for a sample training video?

We are building a community of highly skilled professionals who can create high-quality learning material for students and aspiring engineers. So, we want to carefully pick only those who are technically proficient and have a passion for teaching. Your sample training video (5-10 minutes) will give us an idea about your technical knowledge and teaching skills.

Where can I upload the sample training video once recorded?

You can fill out the form given on this page, where you can paste your sample training video link. Then, we will review your sample training video and get back to you with our decision and feedback.

Are you going to pay me for 5-10 minutes of sample training video?

No, we do not pay for a sample training video.

Can you share an example of a sample training video?

You can find a sample training video here.

Which tool should I use to record videos?

You can use any tool of your choice. However, we recommend Zoom as it is free and easy to use. If you are unsure how to use Zoom to record videos, please check a quick tutorial here.

Do you have any guidelines for preparing a sample training video?

Yes. You can check our five tips to create training videos here.

How often do you pay your instructors?

We pay our instructors on a biweekly basis.

Do I have to follow the curriculum strictly, or can there be changes based on my subject matter expertise?

As we aim to provide quality content to our candidates, we are open to suggestions and feedback that would help us make our content better.

Do I need to record the full content or a particular portion?

It would be great if you could deliver the entire content on a particular topic, say JAVA. But if you are comfortable with only a limited number of topics, you can create content on those topics only. Also, keeping in mind your work schedule, we can assign certain topics/work per your availability.

Do you provide feedback and suggestions on the videos regularly?

Yes, we provide continuous feedback and suggestions on the videos you share with us regularly.

In case of an emergency (health/others), can I put my work on hold and resume when things are fine.

Yes, in case of any emergency, we provide one week for the Instructors to get back to work. However, depending on the criticality, the break period can increase or decrease. Therefore, we would request you to keep us informed on a prior basis if the situation permits.

Is the content developed to be published on your website/any other social media platform, or is it only accessible to your team?

We plan to use this only primarily for our premium customers only. But some of the content will be published on our website, and other social media handles for marketing and promotions.

What approach do I follow while recording the videos, whether it should be more theoretical content or I could use case studies / mini examples / projects for explanations?

We would like you to maintain a practical approach while creating the videos, and you can include small case studies or projects while explaining the content as per your judgment of what would be the best way to deliver a particular topic.
