Rank (rating) freelancer on PROhq

Rating freelancer on the exchange of remote work - this is one of the most important indicators that affects the choice of the customer. On some of the existing freelance exchanges, the system of building a rating of specialists is far from being objective, since feedback on the result of the work is not always set by customers: there is a solid exchange of feedback between freelancers, not to mention the fact that reviews can be bought. As a result, customers often face incompetent specialists, despite the fact that the rating of these specialists is relatively high. In turn, specialists with sufficient work experience and a high level of professionalism, but not raising their rating for money, find themselves in the lower ranks of the lists, undeservedly remaining unnoticed by employers.

The remote work exchange PROhq offers its users a system of building an honest rating, which is based on objective indicators, including activity on the site, customer relationships and participation in published projects. In the aggregate, these criteria become a reflection of the professional and business qualities of each freelancer, which has a significant influence on the decision-making of employers when choosing a specialist to perform a project. In this case, the contractor does not have the opportunity to raise his rating on a fee basis, respectively, the employer can easily distinguish an experienced specialist from a beginner, and fair competition arises between freelancers.
