Hello.
This is a full-time project. I wish to pay each week for a set daily salary. If I award you this bid, please know that you will constantly be on trial- if you fail to produce results for me, I will move on to another freelancer.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
I am looking for a professional coder (or team of coders) to create a freelance-style website for teachers. THE SITE MUST BE REALLY USER-FRIENDLY (LIKE FREELANCER)
The website will have the following features:
There are two types of website users- providers and employers. Both of them use the same login fields, but different registration forms. There is no overlap- (meaning a provider will NEVER be an employer, and an employer will NEVER be a provider).
There are only several possible 'job types'.
The website, unlike a standard freelance style website, involves local employment. So, employers and providers will only appear to each other if they enter in the same (or nearby) U.S. zip code.
Providers have a 'Profile Page', which have an uploaded picture, past work experience etc. and an uploaded State Teachers License.
Employers must review and approve a provider's profile in order for the provider to be able to work for the employer. If they approve of the profile, they click an 'Add to Potential Teachers' button, which makes them eligible to work for this employer. There is also a 'Request an Interview' button, which would set a time/date for interview and put the provider in an 'in-between' status, until the employer finishes the approval process, which takes place after the interview.
Projects are all date/time based.
Employers, when registering, set the different possible hours. When they 'Create a project', they select on a calendar for the date, and select the hours from a pulldown box. Based on the job type, the potential providers show up in this project creation page. The employer has the ability to move a provider up or down the list of teachers to be contacted.
THE PROVIDERS DO NOT ALL RECEIVE NOTIFICATION AT ONCE- NOTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT IS SENT IN THE ORDER THAT THE EMPLOYER CHOOSES (either through a 'general settings' tab, or through the individual project creation page.)
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
SMS/PHONE FEATURE:
Projects have to be accepted by providers fast.
Therefore, the website must have an integrated system (either by SMS, Phone call, or both) which contacts providers when a project needs to be completed. The system will call or send an SMS to the provider and let them know that a project is available. They will then enter their predetermined PIN and either accept (by sending back an SMS with their PIN and the word 'accept'/ pressing certain numbers via the phone system), or decline the project. If the provider declines, an automatic call/SMS is sent to the next provider on the list. If the provider does not answer, a window of several minutes is given when they can respond or logon to accept the project.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hourly rates are predetermined by the site BASED ON US ZIP CODE. There is no bidding whatsoever.
After each project is completed, the employer enters in the actual hours completed by the provider. Billing and payment is based on these hours.
Payments are made to the site. I.E. the website gets paid by the employer and then issues a payment at designated intervals. Payments do not go directly from employer to provider, nor is there a concept of "Milestone Payments"
There is an internal private messaging system.
Feedback will be very basic, positive or negative. If negative feedback is left, comment box for explanation.
