Once you’ve confirmed the details and requirements of your Posting, there are several ways you can hire a creator. To hire creators from within the project view, select Make Offer and enter the amount you've agreed on.

Here you’ll be prompted to enter an offer amount (made in $USD). You will see a breakdown of the project's total cost as you enter it, including Glimmer’s service fee. Selecting Make Offer will send your offer to the creator, where you'll be notified whenever they accept, counter offer, or decline.

The Posting view allows you to hire Creators from the applications they’ve submitted. We've recently transformed the way you handle viewing your applicants by prioritizing the ones that are most closely associated with your posting first as "Featured Applicants." These applicants have services, locations, or experiences that match your posting requirements. To hire these (or other) creators, simply click "hire" on their application card. You can additionally favorite the application and return to it later or decline the applicant.

We offer a new way to hire creators through our Request a Quote feature, which takes some of the guesswork out of pricing conversations. When working with new talent, the traditional Hire experience will be replaced with the ability to request a quote. Selecting Request a Quote will prompt you to fill out a creative brief similar to creating a posting - only this brief will be sent directly to the desired creator. The creator will then review all details and provide you with a quote on how much the project will cost. You can always counter a creator's initial quote if you feel more negotiation is needed.

NOTE: If a creator is already in your network, then you will be able to hire them directly - this is because you are probably aware of a creator's rates if you've worked with them before.

We’ve automatically notified the creator that you sent them an offer. As mentioned earlier, a creator can choose to accept your offer, send a counter-offer, or decline your offer. You’ll be notified when a creator accepts, counters, or declines your offer.
