Worksome is a platform that makes your recruitment external workers quick, efficient, and agile, by matching talent and competencies with your specific needs. Posting to Worksome's marketplace is the option you want to go for if you want to look for talent outside of your own portfolio of Trusted Contacts. Worksome's platform will automatically notify the profiles in the marketplace who are a match to what you are looking for.

You have one job to do

To get your search for talent started, all you need to do is to create a free job post on Worksome. The algorithm will do the rest of the work for you by matching talent to your job post! The interested profiles will reach out to you with an application and bid.

Everything you add in the job post will form the basis of the contract between your company and the external worker. It's two birds with one stone! 😊 Let's get started!

1. Go to your Worksome Dashboard and click the "Hire" button in the top left corner

It should look like the window below if you have never had any jobs before. If you have active contracts, you'll be able to view them and a lot of other things from your dashboard.

2. Choose the option "Broadcast a job"

3. Start by giving your job a title and add skills

See example below: Senior Project Manager, Copenhagen, Onsite, 6 months.


The skills are very important as we use them for matching the job with relevant profiles. Also, the order of skills affects the matching so put the most important and specific first.

4. Add a comprehensive description of the project.

The description is also included as part of the contract between your company and the external worker that you end up hiring. Therefore, the more detail you can add here the better.

5. Outline the scope

The first step is to tell the workers what type of role you are looking to fill.

You have 3 options: one-time project, on-going part-time or full-time contractor.

IMPORTANT: If part-time, remember to describe how many hours per week (roughly) you expect the workers to work on your project.

In this step, you also have to specify the level of seniority for your hire and decide where the work should take place. You have three options regarding location: At Location Only (On-site), Local remote, or 100% remote.

Location selection is important since it specifies where the consultants are located and who matches the job.

8. Final details

Next up, you'll see the below screen This is where you define when the project is starting and finishing. This info will also be part of the final contract.

You also have to decide how you'd like to pay and select a price range.
You have 3 options: Hourly rate, daily rate, monthly or select 'not sure' if you just want profiles to send you a bid. In this last step: You can also specify if you would need any unique language and industry skills. You can also add that you need more than 1 worker for this job - that way you can establish contracts with multiple workers on the same job.

11. Specify who you'd like to post the job for

You can post the job on Worksome's Marketplace or to your own portfolio of trusted Contacts. You can also broadcast the job with your staffing agencies - so that they can help to source for the job!

12. Approval

If you have selected to post your job on Worksome's Marketplace your job is now pending approval. If everything is good to go your job will be approved right away. If we need further info before we can publish and approve the post, you'll be contacted by either your Support team or your Worksome Customer Success Manager ASAP.

As always you can contact us via our live chat or email hello@worksome.com.
We are more than happy to help you get started 😊.
