Apply to be a Local Nerd
We're the people our neighbours call when the Wi-Fi dies, the new phone won't take their photos, or the TV stopped talking to the remote. If you're patient with people and good with their tech, we'd like to meet you.
- About 5 minutes.Nothing to upload, no resume required.
- Honest answers.We ask what you can and can't support. A low score costs you nothing — it just tells us which jobs to send you.
- Your own vehicle and a valid license.In-person visits are the core of the work.
- We read it.A real person, not a filter. We choose for character first.
- An interview, if it looks like a fit.We'll reach out to set it up.
- A background check — we pay for it.Only after we've talked. Customers let us into their homes, so everyone is screened.
- Onboarding.Your contractor agreement and direct deposit, about 10 minutes.
Who you are
Just enough to reach you and know which town you'd be working.
Your devices & skills
Customers call us about whatever they own. This tells us which jobs would suit you — and which ones wouldn't. Be honest. Nobody is expected to know everything, and a low score here costs you nothing.
You can't troubleshoot a platform you've never touched. Check everything you personally have access to.
A lot of what we fix can be solved on a video call, where you can see their screen instead of guessing. That means we need you reachable on the apps our customers already use.
Where you actually are today, not where you'd like to be. We use this to route jobs, never to rank you against other Nerds.
How you work
The part we actually read twice. Write like you'd talk — we're not scoring grammar.
Application sent.
Thanks — we've got it, and we've emailed you a copy of what happens next. A real person reads every application. If it looks like a fit, we'll reach out to set up an interview.
Nothing else to do right now. If you don't hear from us within a couple of weeks, feel free to call 580.400.7475.
