- Step 3: Set Requirements for Freelancers — Select Specialties: Choose the relevant category and subcategory that best fits the job. You can also add keywords to receive category and skill suggestions. Specify Skills: Add specific skills you’re looking for, with a maximum of twelve skills. The system will suggest relevant skills based on your job description and selected subcategory. Experience Level: Choose the desired years of experience: <1 Year, 1-6 Years, or 7-15> Years.
- Step 4: Define Budget and Timeline — Contract Type: Select between Hourly Rate or Fixed Project options. For Hourly Rate Jobs: Enter a rate between $10 and $400 per hour. If an entry is outside this range, the system will display an alert. For Fixed-Price Projects: Set a total price (minimum $10, maximum $100,000). You can also opt for a milestone-based payment structure, requiring at least two milestones with descriptions and amounts. Project Deadline: Use the calendar tool to set a deadline. Note that the earliest available date will be 9 days from today to allow adequate planning time.
- Final Step: Review and Post — Review Post Content: A summary of your job post will appear for you to review and edit any final details. Post Options: Choose to Post Now or Schedule Post. Scheduled posts can be set up to 1 month in advance. Content Moderation: Once you select “Post Now” or “Schedule Post,” the system will perform a content review to check for any inappropriate material.
