Freelance Network

Advertise your skills and availability as a freelancer on this site.

If you're a freelancer or consultant, you can advertise your skills and services on the NMK site. Here's how:

1. First, you must become a registered user of the site.
2. Then, sign in with your email and password and click on 'Your profile / admin' in the 'User Details' panel at the top-right of the screen.
3. Next, click on 'Edit Your Profile' and scroll down to the 'Freelance Network' box.
4. Enter details about your skills and the kind of work you're looking for in the Freelance Network box, including information such as your location and availability. This will then be displayed along with the other information in your personal profile. (Please note that a 'Freelancers-only' search will not search the text in the 'Personal profile' or 'Company info' sections of your profile.)
5. You must also ensure that you have selected 'Standard details' or 'Full details' at the top of the 'Edit Your Profile' form.

Other users of the site will then be able to find out about you through the site's search function. This performs a search of the text in your 'Freelance Network' entry, so make sure your description includes the terms that potential employers will be looking for (e.g. 'Java' if you are a Java programmer).
