Customers: know what you are considering.
Use the price and supporting details to understand the proposed work before taking the next step. You can decide when to prepare the offer, within the quote’s expiry.
QUOTE REQUESTS / CLARIFY THE PRICE AND SCOPE
Understand the price before you offer the work.
“What will this cost?” deserves more than a guess. A Customer can ask a Service Provider for a quote, review the response and decide whether to prepare a separate offer.
FOLLOW A POSSIBLE JOURNEY / ILLUSTRATION ONLY
A clearer price.
A separate decision about the work.
Follow the exchange as it happens, or take control of either person’s next decision. This fictional example sends nothing and is not an app recording.
Teaching illustration only. No real people, requests, quotes or offers. Current eligibility and terms apply in the app.

01 / MAKE THE TASK CLEAR
Help the provider understand what you need.
Describe the work so the Service Provider has useful context for a price. A Quote Request is a Customer-to-Service Provider conversation, not an Interview Request to a Jobseeker.
02 / A CONSIDERED RESPONSE
The provider decides how to respond.
A Service Provider can send a price with optional supporting documents, or decline the request. Review any quote-response charge shown in the app before sending. A reply is not a confirmed job.
03 / PRICE WITH CONTEXT
Read the scope as well as the amount.
Review the quoted work and any supporting information. Decide whether the response fits what you need. Accepting the quote records that decision, but it does not create or send a work offer by itself.
04 / NOW OR LATER
Keep control of the next commitment.
After accepting, choose to create an offer now or come back later. The quote remains in History until it expires. Continuing opens the normal preparation flow with quote details pre-filled; complete missing information and review eligibility, charges and confirmation before sending.
BETTER CONTEXT / FEWER ASSUMPTIONS
Useful for the person asking.
Useful for the person answering.
Service Providers: explain your price.
Respond to the actual request with the proposed amount and relevant documents. Keep the scope understandable so the Customer can make an informed decision.
Both sides: keep the steps distinct.
A quote response, quote acceptance, offer and job acceptance are different events. Follow the current status in the app rather than treating a conversation as a booking.
Check the terms for each action.
Quote-response charges and later Customer or Service Provider matching charges have different purposes. Review the current amount and any applicable credit or conditions in the app. A quoted work price is not a promise that every platform action is free.
A few clear answers.
What is a Quote Request on SquadGoo?
A Quote Request lets a Customer ask a Service Provider for a price and optional supporting documents before deciding whether to proceed with a normal offer.
Does accepting a quote create a job?
No. After accepting, the Customer can choose to prepare an offer now or return to the quote in History before it expires. The normal offer flow uses the quote details and still requires the applicable eligibility checks and confirmation.
Can a Customer send an Interview Request to a Service Provider?
No. Interview Requests are Jobseeker-target only. Quote Requests are the separate Customer-to-Service Provider conversation pathway.
Start with what you need to know.
Describe the service, ask for a quote and review the response before deciding on the work.
