Elvis, BosniaiOS Developer

I work as a Turing iOS developer. My experience with them has been really good. Guys at Turing matched me with a top client super quickly. I found the entire matching process to be very precise and smooth. It’s rare to find a company that delivers on its promises. But both Turing and the company I got matched with kept their promises. From my experience I can tell you once you get here, your work-life becomes easier and you can focus on doing what you love the most.

Hadji, AlgeriaFull Stack Developer

Although I had worked at oDesk and Elance (now popularly known as Upwork) for more than 5 years, the pivotal moment in my career came when I joined the global team of Turing in 2020. I never imagine that the role I would be offered would come with such stability and prominence. Apply to be one among many Turing developers. It will change your life like it did mine!

Fahad, PakistánSoftware Developer

Even since I have become a remote developer at Turing, I’ve been enjoying the flexibility and other perks that this job offers. I would recommend interested developers to definitely apply for Turing. I am sure you'll enjoy working here and can give your own Turing review to your friends. All the best and hope you succeed in becoming a Turing developer soon.

Ahmed, PakistanFull Stack Developer

I’ve been working as a full-stack developer and solution architect with more than 10 years of experience. My experience as a Turing developer has been quite amazing. My onboarding process was super smooth. Although I had read a few Turing.com reviews about the onboarding process here, I never really expected it to be this awesome. My coordinator helped me in every single step- from getting hired by top Silicon Valley clients to making sure my needs were met at all levels.

Ermal, KosovoSoftware Developer

Before joining Turing, I was working as a software developer for almost 6 years with extensive experience in game development. But it is only after I became a Turing developer, I began to manage my time better, stayed focused on my career goals, became more adaptable. I also learned how to work with different technologies and global teams. If I were to ask to review Turing.com, I would say it has been a rewarding journey for me so far.
