Definition
What Is Gig and Freelancer Screening?
Gig and freelancer screening is a background check for independent workers hired for a project or task rather than as employees. It confirms the freelancer’s identity against their NID, matches it to a live video call, verifies that their portfolio and platform profile are really theirs, and confirms past client work.
Bangladesh is one of the world’s largest sources of online freelancers: a 2017 Oxford Internet Institute study placed it second, with about 16% of online workers. That makes remote hiring here common, and identity checks essential.

Who we screen
Screening for Remote Freelancers and Gig Workers
Remote freelancers often get access to code, client data, social accounts or payments within days. Gig workers enter customers’ homes and handle their parcels and cash.
Both need the same basic answer: is this the real person, with a real track record? For gig workers we can add a present address field visit.

FAQs
Gig and Freelancer Screening: FAQs
What is gig and freelancer screening?
Gig and freelancer screening is a background check for independent workers hired for a project or task rather than as employees. It confirms identity with the NID and a live video call, checks that the portfolio is really theirs and confirms past client work.
How much does freelancer screening cost in Bangladesh?

Can you screen a freelancer who lives outside Dhaka?
Yes. Freelancer screening is fully remote, so the freelancer can be anywhere in Bangladesh. For gig workers who visit customers, we can add a present address field visit.
How do you check that the portfolio is really theirs?
We ask the freelancer to show the work from their own accounts during the video call, check the platform profile and confirm samples with past clients where possible.
Do you check freelance platform reviews?
We confirm the platform profile belongs to the freelancer and note what is publicly visible. Reviews can be bought or copied, so we confirm work directly with two past clients.

Usually 2 to 3 working days per freelancer. It can take longer if past clients are slow to reply, and we tell you when that happens.
Is the freelancer’s consent needed?
Yes. We need the freelancer’s signed consent before we start. Bangladesh’s Personal Data Protection Ordinance, 2025 requires informed and explicit consent before personal data is processed.
Can you screen gig workers in bulk?
Yes. Gig platforms and agencies can send a list, and we screen each worker and track the batch in one sheet. See our bulk screening for HR teams for volume pricing.
