CHALLENGE SUMMARY

Welcome to “Topcoder Earn App OnBoarding Process Design Challenge”.

Gig Work at Topcoder is part of our TaaS (Talent as a Service) offering and it is one of several ways that Topcoder engages with its customers if they prefer to work directly with individual resources as opposed to accessing the Topcoder Community via challenges.

This challenge will focus on updating My Active Gigs detail page. After applying the Gig, detail page should help integrate the newly hired Gig Workers into Topcoder culture, rules & policies. Also, allowed Gig Workers to track & manage their Active Gigs once they are placed in the gig.

We provide the EARN base design as your base, do not introduce a new colour or styling strictly using what is already there. What you should focus on the most is the flow of how the Gig Detail page should handle information.

Read the challenge specification carefully and watch the forums for any questions or feedback concerning this challenge. Let us know if you have any questions in the challenge forum!
