Looking for Freelancing jobs? Here’s how you can get it

Being a freelancer, it’s a tough job to find your desired work. I often stumbled into one or the other sites to find the same, but always turned back disappointed. The reason behind this disappointment is the failure to find the right job or the higher expectation of clients. But after surfing for a long day on the web, I came across this site where I could find the most reliable and trustworthy jobs that suit my abilities as a freelancer.

“Work N Hire” is one of the platforms where you can find your preferred freelancing jobs, from any field you belong. Whether you are a writer, or designer, or a developer, the site lists all the jobs that require people with various skills from various industries. You can browse for jobs on the site based on your industry type and find the list of projects where they require freelancers. Based on your knowledge and agreements with the project you can send a proposal for the job and the employer will get in touch with you. “Work N Hire” is probably one of the most reliable sites I have come across where you can find clients from within the country and outside too.

How “Work N Hire” works?

Your profile is your powerful weapon for impressing your clients, so you need to start creating an impressive profile with your work experience, samples, skills, and a profile picture. To create a profile; first, you’ll need to sign up on the site using your name, email address, password, and a username which will be publicly displayed. After signing up on the site, start building your profile by writing an inspiring introduction that will give an overview of your skills, knowledge, and your personality. Add a portfolio with your previous work samples so that whenever any client contacts you he/she can view your work directly from the site.

Present your work history with where you have worked before and with whom so that your clients get a rich idea about the companies you have worked with. Rate your skills in each relevant category to summarise which fields do you specialise in. And yes, do not forget to upload a good profile photo so that whenever your clients see your pic, he/she develops an idea by looking at you. Set your minimum rate for per hour work and get set with your “Work N Hire” profile. Now you can start looking for jobs based on your profile information.

To find a job, you need to browse their categories. There is a wide range of categories available, so simple click on the one you specialise in, and you’ll get the list of available jobs. Select any particular job and read their requirements and conditions carefully before you send a proposal. If you agree with all their necessities, then set with your price along with a note and send a proposal. If the client is impressed with your proposal and profile, then he/she will get in touch with you.

“Work N Hire” supports payments via Escrow, which is an efficient method to get paid for the work you have delivered online. Once you are hired for a project, both you and your client agree upon the milestones and the funds are placed into Escrow. After that, you can start working on the project knowing that the payment is secure and will be released once you will complete the project. When you complete the work, the Escrow funds will be transferred to your “Work N Hire” account which you can transfer later via check or in your bank account or PayPal account.

What makes it different from the other sites?

“Work N Hire” is a promising marketplace where you will find assured jobs without getting back empty handed.

The payment system has been made very secure. “Work N Hire” won’t be responsible for any payments made outside their payment agreements.

So if any client refuses to release Escrow funds after work competition, you can file a complaint to the “Work N Hire” support team, and it will immediately look after the matter.

Obviously, there is a chance that some of you will soon think of leaving the site if you are from a different country. If you are one such person, I recommend you not to leave the site but use it instead to hire freelancers.

Conclusion
