We also partner directly with consulting clubs at leading universities to help you find the perfect match.

What does it cost to post a project? +

Project listings start from $49 for basic visibility, with upgrade options for featured placement or faster matching.

What makes Qava different from Upwork or LinkedIn? +

Three important differences set Qava apart: Quality Unlike Upwork, which often connects you with low-cost offshore freelancers, Qava connects you with high-caliber talent from top business schools that bring local market knowledge, the latest academic insights, access to premium research tools, and local contacts. Visibility Unlike LinkedIn, which serves every profession and job type, Qava is purpose-built for strategic, MBA-level work. That means your projects stand out to the right audience — not buried among thousands of listings. On-demand and cost-efficient With Qava, you only pay for what you need, when you need it. No retainers. No long-term contracts. Just flexible access to top-tier talent and simple, affordable project listings that make scaling smarter — not more expensive.

Can I use Qava if I'm not an MBA student? +

Yes. While Qava was founded for MBAs and advanced degree holders, we also welcome experienced professionals and independent consultants with strong business or technical expertise.

How do payments work? +

Qava makes payments seamless and secure. Once the project is complete, funds are released to the talent based on your agreed terms — giving both sides confidence and clarity.

Is Qava available globally? +

Yes. Qava operates internationally, matching clients and talent across time zones. Projects can be remote or in-person depending on your preferences.

How do I get started? +
