Bidding On a GIG  
 
   
   
 
 
   
 
 

This is your opportunity to sell yourself to the employer and get yourself a gig. It’s a pretty straightforward process and fairly self-explanatory but we’ll explain a few things anyway. First of all, this is an auction-style process. There will be a number of bidders and the employer will choose the winner among them. However, unlike eBay, it isn’t necessarily the lowest or most recent bidder who wins. The employer is sole judge of to whom they will award the gig.

 
 
 
 
  Here’s the Pitch  
  The box marked Bid Proposal is where you make your pitch to get the gig. Lay out your credentials, experience and accomplishments. Explain why you’re best for the gig and how you plan to deliver on the requirements. It’s up to you how much detail and salesmanship you put into your proposal
