Confusing workflow when recruiting for a task

I am looking for someone to help me with artwork for a Unity asset store package i'd like to publish.
Unity connect seemed like the natural place to post such a task, so i gave it a try.

Posting a task was really simple, but everything from there is not very clear and a bit confusing:

• What are the next steps in the process?
• Is there a structured workflow for recruiting someone for a task? (e.g: marking them as a candidate, getting more info, "selecting" them as the recruited artist, paying them, receiving the deliverable, etc)
• Some people contacted me via the job itself, some just contacted me in a PM. Not sure what is the correct flow to use.

Any tips would be helpful on how to use this platform correctly.

 

Unity Connect has not received much support or new features since launch. I would recommend looking for people instead on:

Hey liortal,

Contrary to Rich_A's opinion, we do still work on Connect. We just can't focus 100% on the tasks / jobs portion and we are a very small team.

Once you finished posting a task, you will see there is a navigational option "RECRUIT" in your global nav. The structured workflow you're looking for starts there and you can access that here: https://connect.unity.com/my/jobs

Thanks for using Connect!
