Service models
How teams usually hire this role.
Start with the role first, then choose whether you want Cherry involved after launch, a one-time recruiting handoff, or a custom structure around a bigger rollout.
Managed hire
Monthly support with active Cherry involvement after launch.
Best when education research assistant work is recurring and you want Cherry involved with payroll, onboarding, and ongoing support.
Best for
Teams that want lower management overhead after the candidate starts and prefer a recurring managed relationship.
How it differs
Cherry stays involved after launch instead of handing the hire off immediately.
Direct placement
One-time recruiting help, then your team manages the hire in-house.
Best when you want Cherry to source and vet education research assistant talent but your internal team will own payroll, management, and retention.
Best for
Teams with internal managers and a clear post-hire owner who want recruiting support without a monthly management layer.
How it differs
You pay a one-time placement fee instead of a recurring monthly managed plan.
Enterprise / custom
Custom support for multi-role hiring, mixed models, and rollout plans.
Best when this education research assistant hire is part of a broader buildout or needs a custom structure that does not fit a standard lane.
Best for
Operators building pods, hiring across multiple functions, or combining managed hire with direct placement support.
How it differs
The scope, pricing, and support structure are custom instead of fitting one standard service path.
