Before applying

Worky is a platform that connects top freelance talents with companies looking for professional services across various industries. We specialize in Software Development, Design, Product and Project Management, Financial Services, and Growth Marketing.

You can apply by filling out the application form on our website. Once you submit your application, our team will review your qualifications, and if you’re a good fit, we’ll invite you to complete an assessment.

After you submit your application, our team will review it. If your skills match our needs, you’ll be contacted to complete a skills assessment. Successful candidates will be invited to an interview and further evaluation.

Yes, all applicants are required to take a skills assessment relevant to their area of expertise. This helps us ensure that we match you with projects that best suit your skills.

The application process can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the complexity of the assessment and the volume of applications we receive.

Your application should include a comprehensive resume, a portfolio of your work (if applicable), and any certifications or references that can support your expertise.

Yes, we make sure to notify all applicants about the outcome of their application. If you’re not selected, you’re welcome to reapply in the future as your skills and experience grow.

As a member of the Worky network, you’ll have the opportunity to work on a variety of projects, ranging from short-term contracts to long-term engagements across different industries.

Payments are made through our secure platform. Once you complete a project, you’ll submit an invoice, and after approval, your payment will be processed.

No, there is no membership fee to join or work with clients at Worky.

Yes, most of our projects offer the flexibility to work remotely. However, some clients may require on-site work, which will be clearly stated in the job description.

Once the client selects your profile, you will sign a Statement of Work contract (SOW) with Worky. A sample of the SOW is provided in Exhibit A of the talent agreement. This contract establishes a legal relationship between you and Worky, who engages with our clients to provide services. Individuals who work with Worky are considered independent contractors. The legal relationship is formed between the professional and Worky rather than directly with the client receiving the services.

At Worky, we believe in the potential of individuals and embrace simplicity in problem-solving. Our passion lies in creating a talent-centric, innovative, and human-focused approach.

Worky operates as a specialized talent network rather than a traditional consultancy or job agency. We focus on connecting highly skilled, pre-vetted developers with clients who need their expertise, allowing for a direct and efficient match between talent and project needs.

To be part of our Network

Contractors are typically responsible for handling their social insurance contributions. Worky does not manage social insurance for contractors. We recommend consulting with a financial advisor or social insurance expert to ensure compliance with local regulations. Worky does not provide medical insurance to contractors. Contractors are advised to secure their medical insurance coverage to ensure they are protected. Exploring private health insurance options is advisable to find a plan that suits your needs. Contractors are generally responsible for managing their own time off. Unlike full-time employees, contractors do not receive paid time off from Worky. You are free to take time off as needed, but it is essential to coordinate with your client or project manager to ensure project timelines and deliverables are not impacted.

We offer a competitive salary in US Dollars, flexible hours, remote jobs, career growth, and the opportunity to engage in international projects.

Your salary will be transferred monthly through our selected platform, which offers various methods for withdrawing your funds, including ACH, SWIFT, Wise, and many other options. Please note that depending on the withdrawal method you choose, there may be associated fees that you would be responsible for. Payments are made on a Net30 basis as stated in the Talent Agreement unless specified otherwise in the Statement of Work (SOW).

Worky doesn’t cover expenses unless specified in your Statement of Work (SOW).

We work with a Use Your Own Device (UYOD) policy, so Worky itself does not provide any specific equipment or software. The provision of equipment and software will depend on the client’s requirements for the project you are working on, which will be stated in the SoW.

Once you’re part of our network, we match you with clients based on your skills and their project needs. Some clients may proceed directly based on our recommendations, while others may conduct their interviews.

You must provide the necessary information to complete the Statement of Work (Exhibit A) for each project you are assigned. This ensures all details regarding the specific project and your compensation are clear.

No, Worky does not provide support for obtaining work visas, relocation, or other similar services. We recommend that you make your own arrangements if you require a work visa or relocation assistance.

Since Worky does not offer support for work visas or relocation, you should contact immigration consultants, legal advisors, or relocation specialists who can assist with these matters.

Skills assessment

Completing the assessment will not only assist us in understanding your skills more comprehensively but also better prepare you for the next stage with our clients.

Initially, we will send you two assessments (in two different emails), one for an English assessment and another one for your main skill (the one you selected during your application).

The assessment consists of three parts:

  1. Coding Test: Evaluate your technical capabilities and problem-solving skills.
  2. Skill-Based Questionnaire: Understand your expertise and experience in your main skill area.
  3. Video Question: Describe your main experience, skills, and one accomplishment you’re proud of.

Yes, it is important that you complete the assessment independently and follow the provided instructions closely. Please ensure that you do not seek help from external sources, copy and paste answers from other websites, or engage in any similar activities. Completing the assessment on your own will help us accurately evaluate your abilities and skills.

Please be aware that the assessment link provided will expire in 7 days and can only be used once. After clicking the link, you will not be able to pause or resume the test, so choose a time when you can complete it without interruptions. The test has a maximum duration of 2 hours, but you may finish it in less time.

If you find that the skills listed in the assessment are incorrect, please contact us immediately at talent@worky.com.

If the assessment platform informs you that you cannot record a video, you can still complete this requirement by sending the video directly to us via email. Please email your video to talent@worky.com. Be sure to include your name and any relevant details about the assessment in your email to ensure we can properly match the video with your application.

We will now review your results thoroughly. Please note that in some cases, our review process is conducted in person, which may result in a slight delay.

Talent Agreement

The Talent Agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions under which you, as a talent or consultant, will collaborate with Worky LLC and its clients. It defines your responsibilities, the services you will provide, payment terms, confidentiality, and intellectual property. However, signing the Talent Agreement does not mean you are hired by Worky or any specific client. It simply establishes the framework for how you may be engaged for future projects. Any actual work engagements will be governed by separate agreements or Statements of Work (SOW) between you and the client.

By signing the Talent Agreement, you agree to provide services to Worky LLC and its clients as specified in future Statements of Work. You commit to maintaining confidentiality, assigning relevant intellectual property rights to the company, and adhering to the terms, including payment and termination.

The Liquidated Damages clause means that if you breach specific terms of the Agreement, such as disclosing confidential information, violating intellectual property rights, or soliciting employees or clients of the Company for your benefit, you would be required to compensate the Company within 30 days. The amount is a predetermined estimate of the damages the Company would incur from such breaches. This clause is intended to simplify resolving these issues without lengthy legal processes. While it might seem strict, it is a common practice to prevent disputes and protect the Company from potential losses. If you have concerns about this clause, please contact us at legal@worky.com.

An example of when the Liquidated Damages clause might be executed is if you were working with Company A and shared sensitive information with Company B, a competitor of Company A. This breach of confidentiality could cause significant harm to both Company A and Worky LLC and the Liquidated Damages penalty would be enforced to compensate for these potential damages.

Exhibit A is the Statement of Work (SOW). It details the specific project you will work on, including the work description, compensation, and other relevant details. Exhibit A is attached to the Talent Agreement but will be filled out and signed for each project you are assigned. The fields in Exhibit A are intentionally left blank until you are assigned to a specific project, at which point the details will be completed.

The Talent Agreement itself does not guarantee payment. You will be paid when you have an active position with a client, according to the terms specified in the Statement of Work (SOW) for each project. The payment terms for each specific project are generally defined in Exhibit A. The Talent Agreement provides the overarching terms, but the exact rate and payment schedule for your services will be detailed in the Statement of Work (SOW) for each engagement.

The Talent Agreement is mandatory in order to be matched with our clients. If you choose not to sign the Talent Agreement, you will not be introduced to clients or able to start an engagement. We encourage you to decline the agreement if you do not wish to proceed, which will help us avoid unnecessary follow-ups. You have 7 days to sign before the offer expires. If you miss the deadline but still wish to proceed, please contact your recruiter or send us an email to talent@worky.com for further assistance.

The Talent Agreement remains in effect until it is terminated by either party. Termination can occur immediately from either party for any reason.

Worky profile

Absolutely! If you are selected to be part of our talent pool, your recruiter will provide instructions. It’s essential to briefly overview your role in each job and elaborate on your contributions. Feel free to explore the technical aspects, describing the tools and technologies you’ve worked with. Additionally, if you are a Designer, sharing your portfolio is essential. The sooner you provide this information, the smoother the process of matching you with the best projects will be.

We ask for a picture to be added to your profile because the first impression of your profile is crucial when connecting with clients. Professionally presenting your profile helps us showcase your qualifications effectively. Your picture will enhance the professionalism and credibility of your profile when presented to potential clients.

We will now review and polish the details. Please note that the review process may be delayed as it is conducted in person. Once completed, we will send you the link for your review. Following this, we will include your profile in our network. Should an opportunity arise that matches your skills and experience, we will reach out to confirm your availability and interest in having a call to discuss the role further.

Engagements with clients

A full-time position at Worky requires 8 hours per day, totaling 40 hours per week. For part-time roles, the commitment is usually 4 hours per day, amounting to 20 hours per week.

Worky is an intermediary between clients seeking specialized skills and talented professionals seeking exciting projects. We carefully match clients’ project requirements with the expertise of our talent pool to ensure optimal project outcomes.

Project duration varies widely depending on scope, complexity, and client needs. Some projects may last a few weeks or months, while others could extend to a year or more. We work to provide opportunities that suit your availability and career goals.

Balancing two full-time jobs is typically challenging and may lead to conflicts of interest or fatigue. It’s essential to prioritize your commitments and consistently deliver high-quality work. Worky recommends against taking two full-time positions simultaneously to avoid compromising your performance or violating employment agreements.

Communication protocols vary depending on the project and client preferences. Sometimes, you communicate directly with the client representative to clarify project requirements, provide updates, and address concerns. In other instances, Worky members may coordinate communications to ensure alignment with project goals and contractual obligations.

The nature of your assignment will determine whether you work independently or as part of a team. Worky matches talent with projects based on specific client needs, which may involve solo projects or collaborative team efforts.

You can include your experience with Worky projects on your resume and LinkedIn profile. However, we encourage you to maintain confidentiality about specific client details and sensitive project information unless you have explicit permission to disclose them. Highlighting your role, responsibilities, and achievements while preserving client confidentiality demonstrates professionalism and respect for contractual agreements.

While you are currently employed full-time, it’s essential to consider that any additional opportunity at Worky or elsewhere could potentially interfere with your existing job. At Worky, we generally advise against holding two full-time positions simultaneously to ensure you can meet all job requirements and maintain high performance. However, taking on a part-time position alongside your full-time job may be feasible, provided you can manage your time effectively and fulfill all overlap requirements.

Determining an estimated consulting rate can vary widely based on several factors, including location, experience level, industry, and the specific requirements of the role. Since we don’t offer particular rates and emphasize that consultants set them based on their expectations and circumstances, it’s advisable to research prevailing market rates for similar consulting roles in your industry and location.

It depends on the client. While many trust our vetting process, some may require additional interviews to ensure the best fit for their project. We aim to keep these extra steps to a minimum.
