SkilledUp Life Dashboard

Getting started

Follow the steps below to get started. Step 2 and 3 can be reversed, i.e. you can build the Company Profile after subscribing.

Step 1 - Sign Up for a Company Account

Click on the top right to Sign Up. Make sure you select Company tab from the pop up. Otherwise you might end up creating a Volunteer account by mistake.

Step 2 - Build your
Company Profile

Make the company profile inspirational. Explain what you are building, the progress achieved to date and why should SkilledUp Lifers should volunteer for you. Don't forget to introduce your key team members. ​

Step 3 - Subscribe to
Starter Plan

Visit the Pricing Page to subscribe. You can also subscribe from the Dashboard by clicking on the Post button on the menu but this method is long and can be confusing. It's better to subscribe from the Pricing page.

Step 4 - Post Volunteer Opportunities

Follow the recommended template to post Opportunities. Make it compelling to grab Volunteer attention and highlight the experience and skills that can be gained. Ensure the disclaimer is added at the bottom.

Step 5 - Recruit the best fit Volunteers

Use pre-qualification questionnaires and short interviews to select the best-fit applicants. Be proactive and search the database and not just wait for volunteers to apply. Go the extra mile.

Step 6 - Manage via the
Dashboard

Use the Dashboard to manage Opportunities, review Applicants and communicate with them.​ ​Make sure you only Approve after both parties have signed the Volunteer Agreement. Send reasons for rejections.

Starter Plan Features

There is no limit to how many SkilledUp Lifers (Volunteers) you can recruit into your team. We suggest you take the time to learn and not try to onboard a large number in the first month. 

Support is available via Tawk chat on the bottom right of our website. Make sure you use this service to get the maximum out of your subscription. 

Please modify as you see fit the Volunteer Agreement Template made available to you. Do not engage with a Volunteer without both parties signing the Volunteer Agreement. 

Please use the Knowledge Base to learn as much as possible on how SkilledUp Life operates as well as how to build and sustain your team using SkilledUp Lifers.
