After you’ve applied, we’ll check your two endorsements and ask for your company and financial details. Once everything’s been approved, we’ll verify you as a freelance MedComms expert.

3: Start Working

Once you’re verified, you’ll start receiving requests for availability directly from agencies searching for your skills. You’re ready to evolve the way you work.

How do agencies find me through Talus?

By using our platform’s search and filter functions.

The moment you’re verified, you’re visible to agencies around the globe. But we work to match you with jobs that match your specific skills and experience, to ensure you’re able to showcase your talents and earn those verified reviews that’ll make you even more attractive to agencies.

Once a client finds you, they’ll send you an availability request..

How do I communicate with my agency client?

Talus’ bespoke job flow makes communication simple.

You can communicate with the agency hiring you directly through the platform. Talus provides you with tailored forms and response buttons to make sure you’re able to access briefs and keep clients informed about your progress, while built-in instant messaging allows you to ask extra questions in seconds.

How do I review my client?

With Talus’ built-in review infrastructure.

Once a job is complete, we’ll ask you to submit a review that covers what it was like working with the agency who selected you for that job. They’ll also be asked to do the same, so that everyone on the platform can make an informed choice about who they work with.

How do I get paid?

We make payment simple and straightforward.

We know you’re not paid to create, send and chase invoices, so we handle all of that for you. Once hours are approved, we’ll generate an invoice and request payment from clients twice a month – while you keep track of the process from the financials tab. Once the client pays, we use Wise to transfer the money into your chosen account in your chosen currency.

How complex are the tax considerations?

No matter where you are based, we keep tax simple.

Provide Talus with your relevant tax details, and we’ll make sure the correct tax amounts are included on every invoice generated on your behalf. That’s it.

You will still need to complete your own company or self-employment assessments, as required by the laws of your country.

How do contracts work on Talus?

You’ll be sent all the paperwork before you agree to a brief.

We provide you with a job-specific non-disclosure agreement and job contract, which you’ll need to agree to in order to accept a brief. It’s to protect you, and the client.

Where can I work?

We accept freelancers from 7 geographies.

We currently welcome freelancers from the USA, Canada, UK, the European Union, India, Australia and New Zealand. MedComms agencies are looking for global talent, so wherever you’re based, we can help find you the right projects to work on.
