Choose the areas that match your strengths.

Define whether you’re open to part-time, project-based, or contract-to-hire roles.

Step 5. Upload samples

Show outcomes, not just descriptions.

Step 6. Approve milestones

Payment is released once deliverables are met.

How Matching Works?

  • Roles appear in a swipe deck filtered by your skills and categories.
  • Employers set requirements such as tools, language, and location.
  • You swipe right on roles that fit your profile.
  • Employers do the same when your profile matches their needs.
  • Once there’s a match, chat opens for direct discussion.

This system reduces noise and avoids wasted applications.

Types of Work Available

Hiring across borders carries additional risk. Upseeks provides safeguards:

  • Project-based roles- Clear scopes with start and end dates.
  • Ongoing support – Weekly or monthly recurring tasks.
  • Contract-to-hire –Trial periods that can lead to full-time offers.
  • Direct Contracts –Invitations from employers you already know.
  • Catalogue projects –Predefined service packages you can deliver repeatedly.

Building a Strong Profile

  • Keep your bio under 200 words. Focus on results.
  • Add three to five skills that matter most.
  • Use numbers when describing outcomes (“Increased traffic by 40%”).
  • Upload two or three samples of your best work.
  • Maintain a professional photo and clear availability.

Payment Protection

All work is protected by escrow:

  • Employers fund milestones before you start.
  • You see that money is secured in your dashboard.
  • Payment is released once the employer approves the milestone.
  • In case of disputes, support reviews the scope, chat, and submitted files.

This ensures professionals are paid for completed work.

Reviews and Reputation

  • Every completed milestone allows the employer to leave a review.
  • Reviews focus on quality, speed, and reliability.
  • Strong reviews raise your visibility in the Marketplace.
  • Repeat hires build long-term trust with employers.

Best Practices for Talent

  • Swipe daily to keep your profile active.
  • Respond quickly when employers start a chat.
  • Clarify scope and expectations before work begins.
  • Break projects into milestones for clear progress.
  • Keep all communication and files inside Upseeks for protection.
