Gigs or job posts: which way should you hire?

There are two ways to hire on Tewam Hire. You can buy a gig, a ready-made service with a fixed price, or you can post a job and let freelancers bid on it. Both are protected the same way. The right choice depends on your project.

Buy a gig when the work is standard

Gigs work best when you know exactly what you want and it is a common task: a logo, a set of social posts, a translated document, a tutoring session. You:

• Browse gigs by category or search.
• Compare packages, delivery times and the freelancer's reviews.
• Pick a package and get started straight away. There is no waiting for bids.

Post a job when the work is unique

A job post is better when your project has its own requirements, a larger scope, or an unusual skill mix, such as a custom website, a research report or ongoing support. You:

• Describe the work, attach files and set your own budget.
• Receive bids from freelancers who have read your brief.
• Chat with them, compare profiles and choose the best fit.

Not sure? Start with profiles

Browse the freelancer directory. If someone's portfolio matches what you need, check whether they have a gig for it. If they do not, post a job and invite them to bid.

Either way, your money is protected

Whether you hire through a gig or a job, your payment is held securely while the work is in progress. You can ask for revisions, and money is released to the freelancer only when you approve the delivery. If something goes wrong, you can open a dispute and our team will step in.
