When do I start working?

Hello! So I'm very much new, but I already aplied to a couple jobs and spoke with a client today, he said he will hire me and we agreed I will be done with the job tomorrow. But when I check my jobs/contracts I see nothing, I'm not sure how this is supposed to go.

Is the client supposed to hire me before I start working?, because all I have is the messages and the candidacy. What should I do? 

Thanks!

Start working when you have been hired.

 

You are hired when you look at your active contracts list and see the contract listed there.

 

If you don't see that, don't work.

 

The client needs to click a green "Hire" button. If he doesn't know how to do that, he may come to this Forum to ask questions.

 

If the work is urgent, but the client doesn't hire you, then it means the work isn't urgent.

Thanks a lot!
