2. View your latest OPEN jobs
Your dashboard is divided into three main tabs:
OPEN = Latest job requests from customers
QUOTED = Job requests that you have already responded to, and waiting for the customer to reply
ACTIVE = Job requests where the customer has replied to you, or you have requested for payment
3. Click on any OPEN job in the list to view more details about it
4. Enter your estimate price and type of cost
Enter your estimated price. Indicate if it is total cost, or per hour cost.

7. Review the amount of Recommend Credits required to quote this job
Before you submit your quote, we will show you how many Recommend Credits we will deduct if the customer responds to your quote. We will not deduct this amount up-front. But, you must have enough Recommend Credits to cover the fee, or else you won’t be able to quote.

NOTE: If the job is an EXPRESS job, your Recommend Credits are deducted immediately, because only one pro is allowed to take the job. What is an express job? >
8. Submit your quote
