Welcome to Contra, freelancers! This article will guide you through the process of finding, applying, and tracking jobs on Contra. With access to the job feed, you can explore a variety of job opportunities that align with your skills and interests.

On Contra, the Jobs Tab is your primary resource for finding work. Once you navigate to the tab in the side navigation menu, you'll see two tabs to filter jobs by: 'For you', and 'All'.

Both of these tabs are designed to help you efficiently navigate through the numerous opportunities available and focus on those that best match your skills and interests.

Look out for jobs you've been invited to and jobs you've been matched to at the top of the page. We highlight these jobs for you so you don't miss out on the best fitting opportunities.

Being invited means you’ve been invited by the client to apply to jobs based on your skills and experience, and being matched means you've invited to apply to a job for the same reasons -- just by us at Contra!

If a job catches your eye, click on it. You'll then see more details about the job, including the rate and scope of the project. We understand these details are essential in your decision-making process, so we've made them easily accessible.

When you're ready to apply, the process is straightforward. You can submit a brief, yet effective pitch directly to the client, showcasing why you're the best fit for the job.

We've made it easy for you to track your applications. At the top of the jobs page, you'll find three tabs: 'Applied', 'Messaged', and 'Closed'.

These tabs are designed to make it easier to track your applications' progress.
