The Job Auction
The Job Auction is a jobs board with a USP. You’ll find regular part-time & full-time roles listed with us but we also offer something unique. What’s the USP? -Auctions! >With us you get to bid for and auction off tasks or work. You can also advertise your skills on there and create a public profile to showcase these. We work tirelessly to marry clients to one another professionally by putting the power in the hands of the users. You set the price of the work and it can only go as low or as high as you and the potential employee agree.
Why not market your business? If you are a freelancer or sole trader or even a company, you can create a public profile (instead of private) and get noticed by prospective clients or employees visiting the site. The in-built messaging system is very easy to use. o you can interact with ease.
