Frequently Asked Questions

There isn’t one.

Our goal has always been to place our students and build a network of talented artists.

For now, recommending them is free for studios even if we know a successful hire can save you thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of euros.

If demand one day outgrows what we can provide, we may start charging, but never as much as a recruitment agency or a full HR process.

In return, we politely ask to show that we successfully collaborated with you (within the boundaries of your NDAs of course).

If you’re happy, we can recommend more artists to you in the future, it saves you time and money, and builds our credibility and our artists’.
This also brings us new students, and it helps us get even more of them hired.
Everyone wins.

No, and it’s not in our plans for now.
This means no placement fee and no commission, on either side.

You send us your NDA, we sign it, and then we can talk about your needs, projects and budgets in complete confidence.

We already keep professional secrecy with our students, and we’ll do the same with you. The artists you meet can sign one too.

If needed, yes.

Our banking works with the vast majority of countries in the world. We can invoice your studio ourselves and pass 100% of the money on to the artist.

Tell us. We’ll recommend someone else as fast as possible.

Every artist we recommend was trained in our mentorship for an extended period of time. We’ve seen their work, their speed and how they take feedback over months, so we only recommend people we can 100% vouch for.

We have artists from all over the world.

Whether it’s a full-time position, remote work or freelance, we can cover pretty much every continent.

For now, we cover concept art and some illustration.

We plan to bring our education structure to other roles in the industry: 3D, animation, VFX, game design, even programming.

For now, what you see on this site is what we offer, and we’ll announce it publicly when we open new branches of The Art Nest.
