How Job Assignments Work
Understand bidding, smart matching, and how clients choose.
Job notifications
When a client posts a job in your categories and area, you'll receive a notification. You can also browse available jobs on your dashboard.
Submitting a bid
Review the job details, then submit your bid with a price and a message to the client. Your bid should be competitive but fair — factor in materials, travel, and your time.
Tip: A personalised message explaining how you'd approach the job wins more clients than just a price.
Smart matching (Quote Requests)
For Quote Requests, HomeSorted's algorithm matches clients with the top-rated providers based on 7 factors: rating, completion rate, response time, portfolio quality, verification status, distance, and availability.
Client selection
Clients see your bid alongside other providers. They compare price, rating, reviews, and profile. Being verified, having a strong portfolio, and maintaining high ratings gives you a significant edge.
Accepting the booking
When a client accepts your bid, you'll be notified. Confirm the date and time, then prepare for the job. There's no deposit hold any more — clients pay once you've completed the work, just like a Bolt trip.
Tip: If a client no-shows or refuses the agreed payment, tap "Report a problem" on the job page so it's on their record.
