Adding your skills and work experience to your Hyer profile helps Customers understand your qualifications and may allow you to apply for Tasks that have specific skill or experience requirements.
Some Tasks have minimum requirements that must be met before you can apply, so it's important to keep your profile accurate and up to date.
How Do I Add My Work Experience and Skills?
Note: Skills earned by completing tasks on the Hyer platform are automatically added to your profile. You will only be able to earn skills from experience outside of the Hyer platform. If you are not able to add a skill when applying to a task, hit the back button, and there should be other options (may show a quiz or assessment needed) to complete in order to add the skill to be able to proceed.
- Tap on the Profile icon in the bottom right-hand corner.
- Scroll down until you see ‘Work Experience.’ When you see this, you are in the right section. Click on the ‘Add’ button next to the area you want to update.
- If you are updating your Experience, you will need to add the name of the place of employment where you gained your experience. Then select the correct business name from the list that populates.
- Hint: Be sure to click the 'search' or 'done' button on the keyboard to see the business names that match what you entered
- Now search for and add the Skills that you acquired while working there.
- Enter the requested information about your experience, including:
- Your employment type.
- How you obtained the experience.
- Length of time at the company.
- Review the information you added and hit ‘I’m Done’
When you complete a task that has a skill on it, the Customer will have the opportunity to rate your proficiency in that skill, along with your overall performance.
Why Can't I Apply for a Task?
If "Proceed" is grayed out when you're trying to apply for a Task, your profile may not meet one or more of the Task's minimum requirements.
Review the requirements shown on the application screen. If information is missing, update the applicable skills or work experience on your profile.
