How it works

From profile to paid

The complete walkthrough for candidates and clients. 170+ countries, one platform, every engagement type.

Candidate journey

12 steps from profile to paid

1

Create your profile

Add your skills, experience, education, certifications and work preferences. Set your desired rate, availability and location policy.

2

Get verified

Complete Tier 1 identity verification with a government-issued document. Verification travels with you across all engagements.

3

Set your pseudonym

You are assigned a pseudonym from our pool. This is what clients see during matching - your personal identity is never exposed at the matching stage.

4

Get matched

Our AI matching engine reads your full profile against role requirements across hard filters (visa, jurisdiction), soft scores (skills, experience) and culture signals.

5

Review opportunities

See matched roles with full client context including industry, location, role type and engagement model.

6

Interview

Interview directly with the client through the platform. All communication is routed through the platform until the offer stage.

7

Receive and sign the offer

The employment or contractor agreement is generated and signed through the platform. You receive your work identity and work email.

8

Connect your tools

Connect Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Workspace. This enables activity verification under Section 19 and protects both parties.

9

Start work

Your engagement begins. Time is tracked, activity is verified, and your pseudonym is used in all client-facing communications.

10

Friday payroll

Payroll runs every Friday regardless of your client's payment cycle. We bridge the gap. Payments are direct to your registered bank account.

11

Quarterly attestation

Every quarter you confirm your employment arrangement. This is a core Section 19 obligation and protects your earnings.

12

Grow your profile

Completed engagements, verified ratings and certifications build your profile score, improving future matching and unlocking higher tiers.

Section 19

Anti-circumvention, explained

Section 19 is Corpshore's platform-level anti-circumvention framework. All candidates receive a pseudonym. All engagements are verified through connected work tools. Quarterly attestations confirm employment arrangements. Circumvention attempts (direct contact, off-platform payment, identity disclosure) trigger an investigation and can result in platform exclusion and financial penalties.

Section 19 protects candidates from non-payment and protects the client from regulatory exposure. It is not optional and applies to all engagements.
