To be honest, we haven't seen much feedback from either side (employers or candidates) yet asking for more functionality around freelance / contract roles. But it's a large part of the industry, so I imagine we'll move towards it at some point. Unfortunately, I don't really have a concrete answer for when that might be. | |

I totally missed the notification on this and only saw it once you commented on the post the other day. The vast majority (~97%) of jobs on the board today are full-time opportunities, so most current jobs define salary either monthly or annually. We've considered adding in better controls for hourly or daily rates, but it's not something that we are prioritizing this year. If more users see value in it, we can revisit it. | |
