How does Bid4job work ?
Bid4job is a Services Marketplace. IT Employers / Buyers can find talent to do their projects or to fill part-time positions. We charge a low cost from Buyers. IT Employers / Buyers simply post the job as a project. Freelancers/Service Providers who wish to do the project place bids, indicating the asking price for completing the project. At the end of the bidding, Buyer can award the project to any Freelancers/Service Provider who bids for the project. Employers / Buyers are allowed to contact the Freelancers/Service Provider before awarding the project through Private Message or email (the email addresses of the Service Providers can be seen only by the Buyer).
