Guru.com provides businesses with the ability to find and hire talented freelancers all over the world. The platform offers freelancers the opportunity to market sought-after skills to a global audience with minimal cost.
More Than A Marketplace. We do much more than facilitate job postings. We also offer a wide range of promotional and support services. This combination of services and a powerful, flexible platform helps you get the work you need done in a way that best suits you.
Self-Funded, Self-Motivated. Guru started as a passion project in 2001. Inder Guglani was dissatisfied with the freelance marketplace landscape, and so he set out to make it satisfying. {need more backstory here…}
Since Guru is self-funded, profitable, and growing fast, we spend our time improving our product and listening to the people who use it. We chart our own course, and relish the freedom to make bold decisions. Sometimes, that means using resources to build something necessary, like new freelancer profiles. Other times, it means devoting time to improving on what we already have.
CORE VALUES:
Guru has evolved drastically as we've built the foundation for a platform that enables you to “Work Your Way”. It’s been a labor of passion, and we hope that you find it not only useful but a joy to use.
As we continue to grow it is important to define the core values that drive us. We've defined five core values that brought us to where we are today. These values guide how we interact with our users and with each other.
We hope that you will keep these in mind as you use Guru.com. You can help make Guru.com the platform you want it to be!
- Trust: We assume positive intent, and build trust by following through.
- Respect: We take the high road, and treat others as we would like to be treated.
- Integrity: We act fairly, ethically and openly in all we do.
- Accountability: We own our actions and decisions.
- Tolerance: We all make mistakes - forgive, learn and move on.

Comments and Reviews
Seems to be not a bad platform, but I am just registered, and I am going to hire someone for doing my website. I am just trying out this platform , and will update my review again after a month . I am currently using the www.jointohire.com , and not that I am not satisifed, but I am always happy to be flexible and look for alternatives.
