Hiring a freelancer

What should I put in a job brief?

A useful brief makes the work, the outcome, and the constraints easy to understand.

What to do

1. 01

   Follow the six short steps: project, skills, budget, timing, questions, and review. Your draft is saved on this device as you go.

2. 02

   List the deliverables and skills. Set a total or hourly budget, or choose “I’m not sure yet.” Timing can be flexible.

3. 03

   Optionally add up to five project-specific questions, mark required answers, and request a résumé or portfolio if needed.
