No problem — participation is always voluntary. You can simply decline any invitation or let your Synquery representative know you'd like to opt out.

Many experts in regulated industries participate in expert network consultations. We recommend checking with your employer's compliance department and reviewing our Terms and Conditions. Synquery follows all applicable regulations and can work within your organization's compliance requirements.

Our team reviews your responses and, if there's a match, you'll be contacted to schedule a paid consultation call. The entire process is handled by your Synquery representative.

While one project may not be the best fit for now, we can contact you again for future opportunities. We have a variety of projects across industries and topics. Providing multiple availabilities and strong responses to the vetting questions will increase your chances of being selected for a project.

You will hop on an audio-only Zoom call. The call will include prepared questions related to your experiences, ranging from high-level, industry landscape inquiries to more granular factual questions.

You may receive a request for short follow-ups, e.g., 1–2 written deliverables or a 15-minute call, that you will be compensated for.

Absolutely. Many projects benefit from experts with a background of senior leadership and tenure. To help ensure a proper project match, please disclose how recent your experience is.
