For making sure that your project turns out to be as you envisioned, it is essential to make sure that you are hiring the right freelancer for you. There are five things which you should look for while hiring a freelancer:

1. Work Samples:

Ask your freelance contractor about similar work samples. Precisely, projects developed on similar technology, of similar size, having similar functionality, and/or developed for same industry. This will ensure that the end result of your freelance job is exactly as you expected.

2. Education and Experience:

Ask your freelancer about his freelance experience and education. Freelancers with more experience and higher education are more expensive, however, they can finish your project in the most efficient manner. Make sure that they have relevant experience and education.

3. Time availability for project:

Ask your freelancer about the number of projects they are working on and about their ability to deliver the project on time. This will help you evaluate whether your freelancer is capable of delivering the project on time. Try to break down the project into pieces (or modules) and ask your freelancer how much time they would take to finish each of those pieces or modules.

4. References:

Check for reviews on Genie Bazaar. Also, ask your freelancer whether he can provide you with some references. This is one of the most important steps which allows you to learn more about your independent contractor.

5. Offers:

Check your freelancer’s Genie Bazaar profile. Often, freelancers post offers and discounts on Genie Bazaar which can reduce your overall cost of the project.
