How NetGig works

From posting a gig to deploying a specialist — in under 48 hours. No recruiters. No agencies. No middlemen.

The platform

Four steps from need to deployed

1

Post your gig or build your profile

Clients post a gig describing the engagement, required certifications, vendor experience, timeline, and budget. Takes about 5 minutes. IT professionals create a verified profile with their discipline, certifications, vendor expertise, and hourly rate.

2

Get matched with the right people

NetGig's matching surfaces specialists whose certifications, vendor expertise, and availability align with the gig requirements. Clients receive a shortlist of qualified applicants. Professionals receive gig invitations that match their profile.

3

Review, message, and hire directly

Clients review specialist profiles, check gig history, ratings, and verified certifications. Message directly through the platform — no third parties involved. When you've found the right match, confirm the engagement and set the start date.

4

Work gets done. Payment releases on milestones.

Specialists deliver the agreed scope — designs, implementations, documents, or project delivery. Milestone-based escrow payments release when deliverables are confirmed. Both sides leave verified ratings, building the reputation that drives future gigs.

Built on trust and verification

Verified certifications

Every specialist's certifications — CCIE, NSE7, CISSP, PMP, AWS, Azure and more — are verified during onboarding. No self-reported credentials.

Ratings after every gig

Both clients and specialists leave verified ratings after every engagement. Ratings are tied to real completed work, not just profile claims.

Escrow-protected payments

Milestone payments are held in escrow and only released when deliverables are confirmed by both parties. Protected for everyone.

Vetted profiles only

Every specialist profile goes through a review before going live. No fake profiles, no unverified claims, no anonymous listings.

Direct communication

All messaging happens on-platform between the client and specialist. No recruiters, no middlemen, no information lost in translation.

48-hour placement average

From posting a gig to a confirmed specialist — the average fill time on NetGig is 31 hours. Most gigs are filled the same day they're posted.
