Summary
When you receive a job offer from Buildforce, you get a text notification with a link that takes you to review your offer before accepting or declining. A job offer in the Buildforce app is a real job offer from a contractor who is expecting you on your start date! We are so excited you decided to join Buildforce!


Now that you have a better understanding of how Buildforce works, let's go over in detail what it looks like to receive a job offer with Buildforce. That's why we're all here at the end of the day, right?!

When you apply for a position on the Buildforce app, your application is sent to the contractor for review. Once the contractor has approved your application, you will receive a job offer in the Buildforce app!

Once an offer is sent out, you will receive a text message notification with a link directly to your offer.

1. Click Review offer to see all of the job details including:

  • The contractor name

  • Your pay rate

  • The expected duration of the job

  • Your start date

  • The approximate job location

2. Click Accept or Decline. Once you accept the job offer, read through the steps outlined. From this page, you may click on the company name to view a more detailed description of the job. If you do not respond to the offer within 24 hours, we assume you are declining the offer and will communicate with the contractor accordingly.

❗Accepting a job offer in the Buildforce app notifies the contractor that you will be there on your start date and are committed to working the expected duration of the job.

🗣️ If you are unable to do so, please communicate with Buildforce as soon as possible. We are here to work with you.
