Meet Some of Our Upshifters in Houston
Upshifter of the Week: Denise G.
"I have 3 children and I wanted to be able to spend more time with them. I also take care of my mom so I never know when I’m going to have to leave work or not work at all. It’s just better than a full-time job because I can schedule shifts on my own time. I really do love it because of the flexibility. Definitely, have recommended it to people such as my husband and son who also enjoy it!"
Upshifter of the Week: Armani G-S
"I graduated from high school last year during the height of the pandemic and needed a part-time job through college. My mom told me about how flexible Upshift is and how you can choose your own schedule."
Upshifter of the Week: Zachary F.
"The app is very simple to use and it’s awesome to pick shifts on days and times that work for me, that way there are never any scheduling issues since I am creating my own schedule. It’s just really convenient and that is probably the main thing that I love about Upshift."
Upshifter of the Week: Comfort O.
A lot of people that were using other companies for gigs or temporary work found that Upshift had more opportunities and the pay was better. So I one hundred percent recommend Upshift and have done so already!
Upshifter of the Week: Tony G-S.
"I really love the flexibility of Upshift. Whenever I have days off from my full time job, I can pick and choose a shift to work through Upshift if I want to."
Upshifter of the Week: Shandre N.
"You really will have so much fun while you also make money which is what I truly love about Upshift. It’s not just a job to me; it’s a fun way to get paid!"
Upshifter of the Week: Irena R.
" I really liked the idea of being able to work whenever you have time, especially if you have other things going on like another job or running your own small business. It’s perfect for if you are an artist or student because you can still work on your goals while you also find work on your own time."
Upshifter of the Week: Trevor M.
"Upshift was a better opportunity because not only did they have hospitality but manufacturing and retail positions. You weren’t stuck doing the same thing all the time. If you had multiple skill sets then you had a choice from multiple job opportunities which was really great."
Upshifter of the Week: Jami J.
"Everyone at these shifts has treated me very well. I was wary in the beginning because I didn't know how we would be treated but everyone has been great. Let’s be honest, I just like working! Get me a job and I’ll do it!"
Upshifter of the Week: Allison L.
"When I first joined Upshift, I really thought I would only use it that summer. However when the summer ended, I kept seeing great shifts on the app and decided to continue working throughout the school year. Fast forward 2 years and I still enjoy working on the platform as much, if not more, than I did when I first started, and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon!"

Frequently Asked Questions
You can complete the personality assessment in under 10 minutes online. We should let you know within 72 hours if you passed the assessment. There can be delays in getting an invitation to onboarding after passing the assessment because we have a waitlist in many cities.
Onboarding takes 30-45 minutes to complete. During onboarding you will fill out all of your tax and employment documents and complete a short orientation before becoming an Upshifter. We also e-verify all Upshifters, so you will need to bring a valid ID with you for this process. You can find a list of valid ID here: https://www.upshift.work/i9
All Upshifters are eligible to enroll in health, dental, and vision benefits after their first payday. You can also apply to receive early/same-day pay from our partner Earnin after receiving two paychecks from Upshift.
Many of the businesses that utilize Upshift require Upshifters to be background checked in order to work for them so we do conduct background checks on Upshifters.
