I posted my job on Elance — how do I view the proposals I received??

To see the proposals for your job:

1. Log in to the MyElance Main Menu.

If you are not logged in, enter your Elance username and password.

2.  Click on the Workrooms link in the left panel

3.  Click on the job name or number of proposals received for the job in question.  Some proposals will be submitted with sponsored placement to get better visibility.  Elance does not endorse these proposals with sponsored placement, as they are submitted as such at the provider's discretion.

4.  Review the proposal comments. Click on a service provider's username to view their detailed profile, portfolio and feedback.

5.  Click on the Private Message (ie. the envelope) icon on the far right of the service provider's proposal if you wish to interview them.  If a service provider has placed a Prebid instead you will not find the service provider's proposal amount displayed, and the status of the proposal will show 'Prebid.'  You will need to click on their Private Message icon to answer their detailed questions so you can clarify the scope of the job and place an accurate proposal amount.
