How to Get Discovered by Companies Using Fueler

Struggling to get noticed by companies despite having skills? You're not alone. Thousands of students and freelancers are tired of cold emailing, ghosted job applications, and no replies from recruiters. But what if I told you there’s a better way?

I’m Riten, founder of Fueler, a platform that helps freelancers and professionals get hired through their proof of work. In this article, I’ll walk you through exactly how you can get discovered by companies using Fueler. Beyond learning in-demand skills, the real game-changer is how you showcase them. Your portfolio isn’t just a collection of tasks, it’s your proof of skill, your credibility, and your shortcut to trust.

Let’s dive deep into the strategies that will help you attract the right attention and get hired by top companies without playing the guesswork game.

Why Fueler is the New Hiring Playground

Today, companies don’t just care about resumes, they care about results. Traditional hiring is slow, unreliable, and based on outdated formats. That’s why more startups and fast-moving teams are now hiring through assignments and proof of work portfolios.

Fueler is at the centre of this shift. It’s a portfolio platform built for the new age of hiring. On Fueler, you can showcase projects, client work, assignments, case studies, and side hustles, all in one place. And more importantly, companies are hiring through Fueler.

Why it matters:

In 2025, hiring is shifting towards proof of work. Fueler helps you be seen at the right time by the right people, without chasing job openings. 

Here’s how to get discovered by companies using Fueler. 

Step 1: Create a High-Converting Fueler Portfolio

The first step to getting discovered is setting up a professional portfolio. But this isn’t about just dumping your work. Your Fueler profile should be about showing your skills and work. 

Key elements to include:

• Headline that shows what you do and who you help (e.g., “Helping SaaS startups grow with viral LinkedIn content”)
• Profile Picture and Bio that are clean and relatable
• Client Testimonials or quick project descriptions that explain why the work mattered
• SEO-optimised tags so recruiters can find your work when they search

Why it matters: When your profile is clean and complete, you start ranking in search results inside Fueler and on Google.

Step 2: Upload Work That Solves Real Problems

You don’t need 100 projects. You need a few solid ones that show how you solve real business problems. Think like a hiring manager: what kind of work will they want to see?

Upload these types of projects:

• Redesigns of existing products or websites
• Content that drove engagement (blogs, reels, tweets)
• Campaign breakdowns that show strategy and outcomes
• Automation workflows you built using tools like Zapier
• Case studies of freelance or college projects

Why it matters: Recruiters look for signals of ownership, results, and clarity. When you document your work well and show outcomes, it builds instant trust.

Step 3: Use the Right Keywords to Get Discovered

Fueler has great SEO. When a company searches “email marketing strategy for DTC brands” or “UI/UX design,” your work must show up. That’s where smart keyword usage comes in.

How to optimize your work uploads:

• Use long-tail keywords like “freelance case study for B2B SaaS”
• Mention the tools used (e.g., Notion, Canva, Figma, Webflow)
• Include outcomes and numbers where possible
• Keep titles and descriptions clear, not fancy

Why it matters: The better your SEO, the more your work surfaces on Google and Fueler search. This is how companies find you without you applying.

Step 4: Share, Don't Just Upload

Once your work is live, start sharing it smartly. Every share = a new opportunity for discovery.

Places to share:

• LinkedIn with a short story about how you did the project
• X (formerly Twitter) with a thread-style breakdown
• WhatsApp Communities and Telegram channels
• Product Hunt discussions or relevant subreddits

Why it matters

Hiring managers and founders often hang out in public spaces. By sharing your proof of work in these spaces, you get direct visibility and even referrals.

Step 5: Join Fueler Membership to Unlock More Visibility

If you’re serious about getting hired, Fueler Membership gives you an edge. Here’s why:

• Access to exclusive hiring opportunities
• A personal profile audit and strategy session
• A ‘Fueler Verified’ badge on your profile

Here’s why you can consider joining Fueler Membership: Fueler Membership

Why it matters: Think of it as LinkedIn Premium, but built for people who actually do work and are serious about their career. 

Step 6: Let Companies Hire You Through Assignments

This is the core of Fueler’s mission: hiring through proof of work.

Companies hire through Fueler. We have assignment-based hiring, where you can apply to jobs/internships with these assignments. 

This shift is massive. It means students and freelancers from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities now have an equal chance of getting hired as someone from a top college, if they can show what they can do.

Final Thought

You don’t need a fancy college degree or an expensive course to get noticed. In 2025, the new currency is proof of work. And platforms like Fueler are building the rails for this new kind of discovery.

If you want companies to find you, don’t just wait for job posts. Start uploading, optimizing, and sharing your work. Fueler will do the rest.
