Hi Samantha,
Yes, you are correct. You need to have a client's account as well in order to post a job. The good news is that you can have both of these accounts under the same account. To create a client account, go to Settings > Contact Info, click on the 'New Client Account' and follow the steps.
For help getting started as a client, I suggest checking out this help article. You can also learn more about the trends and best practices and get tips on making your project a success by visiting our Hiring Headquarters. Please note that there are two types of contracts, Fixed-Price, and Hourly contract and you can check their differences in this help article. You can also read about the valuable perk of payment protection we offer clients for Fixed-Priced and Hourly contracts.
Thank you.
