How do I post a job?

Post a public or private job from the Jobs page. You have options:

  1. Post a public job to our job feed to get applications from vetted contractors who have the skills you’re looking for.

  2. Post a private job to send to contractors you already know to see if they want to apply.

  3. Already know who you want to work with? Start a project from your Projects page here to kick off work without posting a job.
