Questions I get asked
Something else on your mind? Ask me on a short call.

Business developers, BDEs, SDRs and BDRs, HR specialists and recruiters, engineers across AI and ML, full stack, QA, DevOps, blockchain and cybersecurity, and creatives in UI/UX, graphic design, video editing, content writing, social media and email marketing, from junior to principal level.
What is the free CV and LinkedIn review?
When you join, I review your CV and LinkedIn profile and suggest or make updates: headline, summary, experience and skills, so companies see your strengths clearly. It is free, whether or not you are engaged.
Is there a fee to join?
No upfront cost. Joining, the free CV and LinkedIn review and being introduced to companies are free. A one-time, minor service fee applies only after a company engages you, and it is non-refundable.
Is the 1-week trial paid?
No. The 1-week trial is unpaid, so the company can see your work before engaging you. If you do not want an unpaid trial, say so in the expert form.
How does matching work?
When a company requirement fits your area, level, skills and availability, I share your anonymised profile summary with that company, with your consent, and arrange the interview. The company runs the interview and makes its own decision.
Who is responsible for my engagement with the company?
You and the company. The agreement, rate, payments, NDA, IP and any disputes are between you. ShazzBiz only introduces companies and experts and coordinates interviews. It is not a party to the engagement, does not evaluate, certify or guarantee experts, and is not involved in the work, payments or any dispute. Its only charge is a one-time service fee after an engagement starts.
Will companies get my phone number or email?
No. Your direct contact details are not shared before an engagement is agreed. Your profile is anonymised and interviews are arranged through ShazzBiz.
Do I have to work exclusively with ShazzBiz?
No. Joining is non-exclusive. During an engagement you commit to the agreed hours for that company.
How and when am I paid?
You agree your rate, payment schedule and terms directly with the company, and the company pays you. ShazzBiz does not handle payments and is not responsible for non-payment or disputes.
What happens to my data?
Your CV and details are used only to introduce you to matching companies, never shared without your consent, and deleted on request. See the Privacy Policy.
How do I apply?
Fill in the expert form on this page, which sends your details to shahzad@shazzbiz.com, or email your CV with your area, experience, tools, availability and location. For questions, chat on WhatsApp.
