This guide walks through the full lifecycle of a job on zzp2zzp.nl: finding work, bidding, getting accepted, building a team, and executing (including paid microtasks).

End-to-end jobs flow: find, bid, accept, teams, microtasks, done
Overview: from open job to completed work.

1. Find a job

Jobs appear in several places:

  • Job board — /jobs/ lists open work.
  • Email invite — if your profile skills match (or the job is open to everyone), you get a match email with a bid link.
  • Forum — open jobs are cross-posted to lists.3dn.nl (login required). When a bid is accepted, the topic is marked filled and closed.
Jobs listing
Browse open jobs on the board, then open a listing to bid.

Sign in with Authentik (same login as the rest of ZZP2ZZP) before bidding or posting.

2. Bid on a job

On the job page (or from the invite link), open Bid. You choose:

  • Pay in — dibs, EUR, or USD
  • Amount
  • Message — how you would deliver

Submitting creates a pending bid for the hiring party to review.

Bid form
Submit a bid with currency, amount, and a short pitch.

3. Hirer reviews and accepts

The person who posted the job opens Bids for this job and chooses Accept or Reject on each pending bid.

  • Accept links you as the grantee, marks the job filled, rejects other pending bids, emails you, and updates the forum topic.
  • Reject notifies that bidder only.
Accept or reject bids
Hiring party accepts one bid to award the work.

Accepted work also shows under your profile tab Accepted Jobs.

4. Teams and delegation

Large jobs (especially Review jobs with microtasks) are easier with a crew. Build teams under Profile → Teams:

  1. Create a team and name it.
  2. Add members from ZZP2ZZP.
  3. On a microtask, Delegate: first choose the team, then the member.

Only people you put on a team appear in Delegate — not the whole membership list.

Teams and delegate
Manage teams on your profile; delegate with team → member.

5. Execute the work (microtasks)

Some jobs (titles starting with Review) split into paid microtasks (for example look and feel, signup, blog posts, functionality). Typical flow:

  1. Claim a microtask (or receive one via Delegate).
  2. Write a thorough review (concrete observations — short one-liners are not enough).
  3. Submit for review — status becomes Awaiting review.
  4. A reviewer approves (dibs pay out) or rejects (you revise and resubmit).
Microtasks list
Microtasks with payout badges, claim, submit, and reviewer actions.

6. After acceptance — checklist

  • Open Profile → Accepted Jobs for tasks and links.
  • Use Teams if you will share microtasks.
  • Watch email for bid accepted / microtask delegated / paid notices.
  • On the forum, filled jobs no longer look open for bids.
