Creating your profile
The ten steps, what is required to publish, and what you can leave for later.

Signing up starts a flow of ten steps and a review. It takes about twenty minutes if you have your ID to hand.
The steps
- About you: name, date of birth, gender, photo, address.
- How you work: the kind of work you want, hours a week, your working hours, and whether they are fixed.
- Your profile: your headline and your bio.
- How clients reach you: email, phone, which of them clients may see, and your links.
- Skills, tools and industries: with a star rating and a start month on every one. If a search finds nothing, the box offers to suggest what you were looking for. We read every suggestion; it does not add anything to the list on its own, so pick the closest thing you can find as well.
- Your background: work and education history, languages, your work setup, and the optional tests.
- Verify: your ID. Skippable, and the step says what skipping costs.
