Project & freelance work

Prefer to work by the project?

Not everyone wants a permanent seat. Since 1984 CFA has placed architects and designers as career freelancers, working across a variety of firms by choice — range over routine, paid by the hour, on your own terms. If that’s the career you want, it has a home here.

02 — You're more than a keyword

We match you on your whole profile.

Most job boards rank you by how many times your résumé happens to say "Revit." We don't. Our in-house talent engine, TalentRadar™, helps our recruiters see the whole picture — your portfolio, your experience, the kind of work you do best — so you're surfaced for the roles you'd actually want.

That includes roles that never reach a public board. When a firm describes who they need, the right people are already on our radar — current, ranked, and ready for an introduction. Forty years of human judgment, with a modern engine behind it.
