UMKA Decentralized labor market

UMKA project was born when  realized, that at different stages of my life I have encountered problems that became solvable only now thanks to the latest technologies. In college and right after the defense of my diploma, it was hard for me to find work since employers often required knowledge and experience that I could not get in the university. When I worked for someone there was no guarantee that my work would be paid. When I hired employees, I could not be sure that they would deliver quality work in time. Every person working in IT (and not only in IT!) is acquainted with these issues.

UMKA is the product of my own experience, my mistakes and the hardships I have been through. I am convinced that this makes the project relevant. At the base of every concept, idea and detail behind the project lies deep understanding of the issues that members of the freelance market face, as well as knowledge of how to solve these issues. I am also absolutely certain that today, a large number of talented and promising young specialists are in need of specific knowledge and skills that are required by employers. We want to give these young specialists the tool that will allow them to receive additional education and look for work. This is the reason why we plan to host quarterly hackatons as a part of the project.
