I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at FreeUp
Interview
After transitioning out of full-time work, I was nervous to jump into freelancing, but a friend suggested FreeeUp and I decided to give it a go. The interview process was smooth and efficient. There are 3 parts and communication is solid along the way. Once you make it to the one-on-one round (via Skype), you'll be asked about your specific skillset, interests, rate, and experience. While the interview was fairly short, I felt they asked the right questions to appropriately vet average candidates from the all-stars they seek.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FreeUp (Orlando, FL) in Sep 2016
Interview
The process took a few days, but I now realize that it;s because of the great volume of applications that the marketplace gets. It was 3 stages and clearly set out the network's priorities. The scheduler was confusing and the interviewer was late for one interview, which I was not happy about, but I'm glad I saw it through despite that hiccup. After the last interview there was a test and I got the results a few days later. The best thing is that there's no cheating on this one - either you have what it takes or you don't. They will find out. It keeps candidates honest and keeps the marketplace clean.
