What happens and how long it can take once you have applied for a Sidekicker shift.

Updated over a week ago

How long it takes to hear back about being selected for a job can vary from a few minutes to a couple of days, depending on the nature of the job. Although businesses are advised to make their selection as soon as possible, it may take longer to find the ideal candidate for the job, particularly if specialized experience or a long-term commitment is needed.

You will get a notification if you have been hired for a shift, and it will move to your 'active' tab.

What if I can no longer work a shift I applied for?

If you have applied for a shift but your plans have changed or you don't think you can make it any more, it's crucial that you remove your application.

You can do this by clicking on the job in your dashboard's 'Applied' section and then clicking the 'Remove Application' button.ย 

There is no penalty for withdrawing from shifts before being selected. However, once you are hired to work a shift, your reliability could be affected if you withdraw. For more information on how withdrawals impact your reliability, see this article here.
