Get your SkillScoop profile ready

SkillScoop helps you connect with people looking for your skills – fast, simple, and stress-free.

Set up your profile once, and start getting discovered by clients in your area.

Good news? It only takes a few minutes to get everything ready.

After sign up, you’ll land on your My Account page.

This is where you complete your profile:

  • Add your services (so people can find you)
  • Verify your account (to unlock more jobs)
  • Write your About Me (build trust)
  • Upload your portfolio (show your work)
  • Add a profile photo (stand out)
  • Check your details

Step-by-Step Setup

1. Add Services

Choose all services you offer in My Services.

This is how clients find you – you’ll appear on the Specialists page, where clients can search and reach out to you directly.

👉 Add your services

2. Verify Your Account

Complete account verification and get your “Verified” tick – this helps build trust with clients.

Plus, only verified specialists can quote on hassle-free payment jobs, so you’ll unlock more opportunities.

3. About Me

Write a few sentences about yourself in the About Me section.

This is your chance to:

  • Explain what you do
  • Share your experience
  • Show why someone should choose you

You can also add degrees, courses, and certifications under Education & Certifications to strengthen your profile.

4. Portfolio

If relevant, upload photos of your work:

  • Past projects
  • Work samples
  • Before/after results
  • Relevant certifications

A strong portfolio helps clients understand your skills and gives them confidence to choose you.

5. Build Trust

Under Personal Information:

  • Add a profile photo (logo or personal) – this helps you stand out
  • Add your phone number (only visible to clients you interact with)
  • Make sure your location is correct

5. Stay Active

Once your profile is ready, stay active.

  • Check new jobs regularly
  • Send quotes for jobs that match your skills
  • Reply quickly to messages

More activity = more chances to get hired.

🎯 You’re Ready!

Finish your profile and start getting discovered.
