No Good

First time I downloaded it was sketchy, to just leave all your information there, in a app that there’s no real person.
So I finally got a gig, so I followed directions exactly how it told me to go and do, it took me to a shopping center Stevens Creek near Santana Row, there was a few of us waiting on a parking lot, so it was like 3:00 PM, we started at 3:30 or supposed to, there was a no-show for the employer,There was a contact number, I’ve tried to text and called no answer very professional, everybody’s asking me if it was a scam, I told them this was my first time as well.
Anyways heading down to the chase my point is very super unprofessional how the app has it as well as third-party I never did the job they didn’t show up and i didn’t get paid I tried to contact the number, no answer I left my contact number no call so I gave them a 0, careful people, oh yeah, they restricted me from the app, try to say my fault, WOW, I just didn’t argue, your not the only app, it’s a gig, side work, a hustle, but very UNPROFESSIONAL, UNORGANIZED, NO GOOD, oh did I say that I never got paid for the 3 hours waisting my time, so far by far a waist of my time and the people that where waiting as well.

Massive Disappointment

Ultimately I requested to be removed from app. It came down to “options” I had for pay from client. I made a human error with clocking in in job site. I’ve never been late to any job. And I always represented myself and GigSmart beautifully. When I asked for help as the option I chose. I was met with complete rudeness and disdain. I was berated by a woman named Nicole. I explained my needs and was met with extreme and way left responses. I asked several time while speaking with this person to just leave a message to whom I had dealt with before. Which is a man named Stuart. The customer service I was given failed me. I never would treat a customer of mine with less than stellar decorum. When Stuart got back to me. He informed me of a recorded call. And our mutual kindness became non existent. As I stated the option I was told I could have chose. Was just that an option. My intent to chose option for GigSmart to expedite my pay on my behalf. From client that I mistakenly in error did not record. Well, it became a train wreck. I would not recommend this app. Jobs are not varied enough. Many glitches and again do not ask anyone there to look up your information. They will have a brain aneurysm over going above and beyond. I do hope more engaged staff and protocols happen. It’s a cool name for app. Other than that it’s just a waste of time.

This is a great side hustle! Don’t trip too much if you feel as if you’re not being paid an hourly rate that you’re worth. The way to overcome that is to show up on time of course to your first gig, work impressively, so that you get call back for repeated assignments. Each day after working, paying the 3% for an immediate transfer, actually translates as an additional four dollars and a half to $6.25. Today was the sixth assignment for the same employer, and he asked me if I wanted to work full-time. No sir… I do not! However, I do want multiple assignments that fit my schedule, and I receive immediate pay, which increases my motivation to work hard and work constantly without being tied down to a full-time job that conflicts with my schedule. This is the best gig app that is on the market in the area that I live!

Why is it so difficult to start a job here??

I loved this app when I downloaded it at first.
But I have applied to 10-15 shifts and I don’t get accepted for them.
And that’s my problem with this app, unlike Wonolo, which once you select a gig, you’re locked in to start your shift.
This one is a bit complex, once you select a gig, you have to write about yourself, and why you’re good at that job. And it really gets tiring after the 5th time you have to write the same thing over and over again every time you apply for a gig.
Once you apply for the gig is up to the employer if you work the shift or not. So basically you probably competing against 20 to 50 more entries for the shift.
So that’s the negative about this app. Once you apply for a gig, you’re not guaranteed to get it. Even if they pick one of the people that applied for the gig. The Gig stays stuck on your profile saying that you applied for it. Sort of giving you hope that they will probably pick you but I fact they already filled their shift days ago.
That’s why I don’t like this app. And I will uninstall it. It’s been a month and I can’t land a shift there.

I am having some rather difficult times getting jobs nearby

All of the jobs that are being posted are over 45 minutes away from my location. I’m in Greenville, and I’m really looking forward to having some jobs nearby that I can actually make it to if the app can either stop giving me jobs that are so far away or try to entertain the idea of having more jobs in the area. I’d be great but it says nearby nearby to meet at 20 miles or less so I would just really appreciate if we could try to focus on getting some more work in the area because otherwise, it’s absolutely not benefiting me.

Get paid same day after you complete your shift !

I Although I have only used the GIGSMART Platform a few times, I can confirm that I have received payment within 30 minutes after finishing my shift. I commend the team for accomplishing this. Furthermore, I have noticed that the individuals I have worked for on the platform have consistently been amiable and conducted themselves in a professional manner. Therefore, I express my gratitude to GIGSMART and eagerly anticipate my upcoming shift on their platform.

Good App, however

The app in general is a good one to have if your needing other gigs to help your income. One of the challenges to get into a gig right away is being accepted for the work. Because a lot of the requesters have been burned by people they hired for a shift have literally stood them up, it makes it difficult for new gig seekers to get hired quickly as a result. So if you know a person who’s already worked at a job and that person vouched for you that’s helpful but at the same time can be time consuming overall.
One very important positive note is the pay! You verify your timesheet after each shift ASAP, DO NOT PROCRASTINATE, and you decide to approve it ASAP. By the next day you’ll see it was approved by the requester and you can transfer it to your bank account either w/ a fee of about 3% or standard (no fees) which is best because it can hit your account in 12-24 hours! Be on time!!!
