Posting an Opportunity on Crowdhelix is the most effective way of finding suitable prospective collaborators from across the Crowdhelix Network and beyond.
Opportunities are tangible, time-sensitive calls for collaborators posted by an Expert user on Crowdhelix, into between one and three Helix communities.
Once submitted by a user, opportunities are reviewed by Crowdhelix’s team of community managers before they are published on the platform.
Opportunities are also ideally open to collaborators with relevant expertise from:
Depending on the opportunity’s visibility settings, opportunities can be viewed by users representing organisations in the Crowdhelix Network, the Extended Network, or the general public.
Crowdhelix users are sent notifications of opportunities via email based on their chosen 📥 notification preferences, and the Crowdhelix team also facilitates the process of finding prospective collaborators by selecting and directly contacting individuals from across the Crowdhelix Network and beyond.
Crowdhelix’s intelligent recommender system also matches opportunities posted on the platform with potentially suitable collaborators using machine learning techniques.
Opportunities can be responded to using the Comment or Direct Message features, and some can be shared with Trusted Collaborators outside the Crowdhelix Network. To find out about how Crowdhelix manages interactions with users outside the Crowdhelix Network read the section entitled “Account limitations for Extended Network users” below.
