Not worth it
I have been on Expert360 for a while now I did have an initial call with someone from the organisation but that is where the communication stops What I notice is that a job will appear have a start date that may be say in one week so you spend time putting in the application and then nothing happens You do not hear anything back no notice whatsoever and as I look now there are a large number of jobs that have their start date to be months ago there are even about a dozen jobs that have been posted 3 years ago still accepting applications In saying that I do get occasional emails for jobs that have starting dates that are six months old So the concept was probably a reasonable idea but the transition from an idea to reality just does not work Because of the total lack of feedback the lack of communication the lack of transparency and the fact that there is zero ways to tell if a job is real or fake I would absolutely not recommend this site As a business model I can not see how the company can survive long term The numbers just do not add up on their website they have 40 plus people in a photo they also have nice CBD office so their overheads are about maybe 3 0-4 0m they say they have 3 500 clients and 42 000 experts yet they would be pushing it to publish say 50 contracts a month Lets assume that they make about 100 a contractor per day 500 per contractor per week that generates about 1 2m a year so just to break even they would have to take 300 per candidate per day So a job advertised at say 1 000 a day is in fact 1 500 per contractor per week to them Then look at the number of clients being 3 500 and divide that by 600 50 contracts a month X 12months that means that 1 in 6 clients will put up a job per year This also means that with say 600 jobs per year you have a 1 4 600 42 000 chance of getting a short term gig and that is across all jobs if you have a specialty then the odds are way lower than that So I am calling BS on this

Almost Useless
I have been following expert360 for a while now They were a poster child of the Australian startup ecosystem but I reckon the founders and CXOs have now moved on to greener pastures leaving this one far behind When I joined two years ago I got assigned an account manager who was supposed to help me get through to my first contract But nothing transpired after that first call Job posters are quite irresponsive I would not bet my life on this service Most jobs end up with either no response or a standard response that the firm is no longer recruiting Wonder if all the ads are just fake ads being run to please the investors 1 star just because they got a platform together Nothing good to say otherwise

Completely useless - I suspect fake job ads
Completely useless The UX is garbage the application process is complete rubbish the website let s put it this way I can code something better myself I think they fake all or most of the job posts given that on 100 of applications the process goes like this 1-jobs relevant to you2-you apply3-the client puts the project on hold4-or cancels the project5-or another candidate has been selectedI know other consultants with plenty of experience in tier 1 and 2 that never got an offer through this platform

6 months late on pay with very little regard for consultants
I m an ex-MBB manager freelancing since 2020 I tried Expert360 once as a platform and was appalled by their treatment of consultants I signed up for a contract for 3 months at market rates with one of their brand name clients which ended in August They were over 6 months late on pay and only after paid after continuous calls to their useless support and servicing team Very disappointing I would never use their services ever again

Never get paid
For a company that s about account managing freelance consultants they are incapable of doing the basics They struggle to secure work - most adds that go up go nowhere or if they do aren t properly scoped Payment is always very late If a client disputes a payment regardless of the reason there is no avenue to ensure you get paid - you are on your own The account managers don t even actually account manage the client or the consultant They also waste effort on pointless things like town halls etc

Platform is total and obsolete rubbish
Platform is total and obsolete rubbish Virtually no jobs advertised and all with the same excuses and reasons as to why they are no longer proceeding or why they chose someone else The platform is many years past is use-by date and an insult to the calibre of people signing up for it Do not waste any of your precious time on this useless tool
