🤗 Joining Uplink
Membership in Uplink is free and you can easily apply via our website.
We review all new applications within a few days. You’ll then either receive a welcome email and a separate invitation to our Community Slack, or we’ll contact you via email with follow-up questions if anything needs clarification.
Requirements
Section titled “Requirements”Uplink is a network for IT freelancers in the DACH region.
Requirements for membership are therefore:
- Your permanent residence is in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland.
- You are a freelancer - it doesn’t matter whether you’re self-employed or have your own UG or GmbH. Small freelance teams operating under their own name are also very welcome! However, we don’t accept “real” agencies or service providers.
- You work in the IT field. We define this quite broadly though - in addition to classic tech roles, designers, marketers, and “product” people are also welcome with us.
