What to review before you hire
Profile and professional information
The VirtualMasst team reviews and approves talent profiles before employers can see them.
Review the experience, CV and portfolio that are available and compare them with the work you need.
Relevant project history
Look for previous work that relates closely to your job.
Ask the talent to explain what they worked on, what they were responsible for and how that experience relates to your requirements.
References
You can ask for a reference from a past employer when you need additional evidence.
VirtualMasst does not present those references as verified platform reviews.
What reputation evidence cannot confirm
Profiles, portfolios and references can help you make a more informed decision. They do not replace your own assessment of the talent.
What the evidence does not confirm
- That a talent is right for your particular job
- That previous experience will produce the same result on new work
- That future deliverables will meet your required standard
- A talent's future reliability, communication or quality of delivery
The employer decides who to hire.
What happens after you choose
The employer pays upfront through Stripe, using a valid payment method.
Funds are held within the Stripe payment flow until release, and the employer releases payment after confirming the agreed work is complete. For larger jobs, the employer can decide to split the work into several projects.
How it works

If you do the work

- Review experience relevant to the job
- Read the talent's CV and portfolio
- Ask questions about similar previous work
- Ask for a reference from a past employer
