How do I choose who to hire?
Reviews from past customers
Reviews can offer valuable information about service provider's timeliness, technical skills, qualifications, and quality of work. Verified reviews are reviews from customers who hired the expert on expertEasy, Unverified reviews are from customers who found the expert somewhere else. Experts can respond to reviews and those responses can be a way to gauge how they treat their customers.
Photos of past work
We encourage our experts to post photos of their past work so you can get a sense of their expertise and quality. Look for examples of projects the expert has completed similar to your own. If you don't see any, feel free to ask the expert to provide some.
Licenses and Credentials
- Make sure you understand the laws as licenses are required for some services.
- When a expert provides us with their license information we will do our best to check the information where possible, however we cannot perform extensive screening for each expert and you should use your best judgement and exercise caution when hiring. Be wary of anyone who does not have the credentials and licenses required to provide the service or seriously undercuts their competitors pricing.
