How it works
When you apply, you'll see a message box on the application form. You can write up to 350 characters — about 50 words.
The client sees your message right away on your application card. If they get in touch, your message also appears as the first message in your chat with them.
It's free to send a message — there's no charge. We'd recommend adding one to every application.
What to write
Keep it short, friendly, and relevant to the job. Things that work well:
A line about your experience with this type of work
Why you're interested in the job
When you're available to start
Any qualifications or tools that are relevant
What to avoid
Don't include your phone number, email or any contact details — these will be removed automatically
Don't copy and paste the same message to every job — clients can tell, and a tailored message gets better results
Can I edit my message after sending?
No — once you've applied, your message is locked in. Make sure you're happy with it before pressing apply.
