Getting paid, what you deserve

Bid volume is a good thing

Getting blasted with bids means you are a top talent. Celebrate this as it means you are ripe with options and potential. You can always contact us to help you make the decision, but the bidding feature is what sets us apart from traditional recruiters. This shows you, without holding back, all the ways and places you can earn.

Start sending your own bids out

Successful IT contractors don’t want to miss out on peak opportunities. There is no stronger way to show your interest and intent than by sending a bid to an employer. Sending a bid sets the tone of your pay expectations and tells the company you are willing to take the initiative. And it speaks volumes — about you.

Here’s the steps to get started

1. Sign Up

Begin with the basics. Sign up by following the setup and early learnings. Once you sign up, you’ll automatically be prompted to create your very first skill listing.

2. Complete Profile

The goal is to get to a 100% completed profile to ensure the most matching potential. Upload your resume and other certification materials just once to make it easier to apply.

4. Bidding

Being a disruptor to traditional hiring means we are not a job board or a staffing agency. SkillGigs is the future of hiring with our bidding feature allowing you to reach out to potential employers.

4. Accepted offer

Congrats, on your latest gig! And the best part, is that you were in the driver seat the entire time. We have online support, 24/7 call support, as well as resource@skillgigs.com.

SkillGigs helped my confidence honestly. After you apply for so many jobs in the normal old fashioned way, and you either don’t get callbacks or it’s just a phone screening of someone who doesn’t really understand what it is you’d doing. That can, that can really get you down. But, with SkillGigs, all you get are the positives.
