# Adding people (employees & contractors)

> Use the Add people chooser to hire an India EOR employee or invite a contractor.

When you want to bring someone onto your team, you start from the **Add people** chooser. It is a single entry point that branches to the right flow depending on whether you are hiring an India EOR employee or inviting a contractor.

## Opening Add people

You can open the chooser from two places:

* On your **Home** dashboard, click **Add people**.
* On the **People** page, click **Add people**.

Both open the same chooser. It is a menu on the button, not a page of its own, so there is no URL to bookmark.

## Choosing what to add

The chooser shows two options. If you told us during onboarding that you pay contractors and do not hire employees, **Contractor** is listed first.

| Option | Use it when |
| - | - |
| **India EOR employee** | You want to hire a full-time employee in India through Omnivoo's Employer of Record. Omnivoo becomes the legal employer. |
| **Contractor** | You want to invite an independent contractor and pay them per invoice. Available in 220+ countries and territories. |

### India EOR employee

Choosing **India EOR employee** takes you to the EOR hire flow, where you enter the employee's details and compensation and confirm the hire. EOR is India-only and is for full-time employees.

### Contractor

Choosing **Contractor** opens the invite wizard on its own page, where you enter the contractor's details and engagement terms and send the invite. Closing it puts you back on People. The contractor receives an invitation to accept and complete onboarding. See [Inviting a Contractor](/contractors/inviting-a-contractor) for the full flow.

## What happens next

* **EOR employees** appear on your [People](/employer/employees) page once hired, and their onboarding progress shows on the dashboard's Pending actions feed.
* **Contractors** appear on People with a pending status until they accept. While pending, you can resend their invite using **Copy invite link**.

## What's next

* [People](/employer/employees) - See everyone you have added.
* [Viewing a person's profile](/employer/person-detail) - Open an individual's details.
