Skillinker is a membership site for... ...FREELANCERS First and foremost, Skillinker was built with the freelancer in mind. We understand that you've worked long and hard to establish your hourly rate or per project fee. We also understand your value is not just based on the skills that you possess to get the job done, but your years of training, knowledge and experience which allow you to get the job done effectively and efficiently. Therefore, we want you to earn your full value so we do not charge a commission for your work. Our ultimate goal is for freelancers to use Skillinker to launch successful businesses and we don't want to do anything to get in the way of that. ...EMPLOYERS Traditionally, employers piece together a team by hiring each position individually, whether they do it directly or through a 3rd party staffing firm or website. Some firms and websites which claim to assemble a custom team for you are really just piecing together the first available individuals at each position. The major flaw of both these models is that the employer has no guarantee these individuals will be able to work together efficiently and effectively. A lot of time and money can be wasted on evaluating whether or not all the pieces fit together cohesively. Often times, one or more of these pieces needs to be replaced until the right fit is achieved. At Skillinker, employers can hire already established teams with proven success in working together. This removes the uncertainty and saves time, money and a lot of potential headaches.
