What if no one applies to my job

Sometimes, a job might not receive quotes or interest right away — and that’s okay! It doesn’t mean your job won’t get picked up. Here are some helpful steps you can take to turn things around:

1. Revisit Your Job Details

Make sure your job post is clear, specific, and realistic. Double-check your:

  • Description
  • Budget
  • Timeline

2. Boost Your Job

Boosting your job keeps it at the top of the list and helps it stand out. It’s a great way to increase visibility and catch the attention of more specialists.

3. Reach Out Directly

Don’t wait — take action. Use the Find a Specialist page to search for someone with the right skills and send them a quote request.

4. Review Your Categories

If your job is in the wrong category, specialists may not be seeing it. Edit your job and make sure it’s listed under the most relevant category and subcategory.

5. Repost for a Fresh Start

If your job has expired or gone quiet, reposting it can give it a new push. You’ll also have a chance to update any details for better results.

Why This Might Happen

Sometimes specialists might be unavailable, your job could be listed in the wrong category, or your timing might not align with current demand. Don’t be discouraged — small changes can make a big difference.

By tweaking your post, boosting visibility, or directly reaching out to specialists, you’ll increase your chances of getting quotes and finding the right person for the job.

With these strategies, you’ll increase the chances of receiving responses and finding the right specialist for your job!
