MERGED: All about ODESK...

[high_heels]

---

some tips for new contractors based on my personal experiences:

> i usually apply for jobs early morning (4-8am) because a lot of new job postings come out during this time. ma unhan sad nakog apply ang mga Indians, Pakistanis ug Bangladeshis nga ga hagok pa at this time, since these people compose the majority of applicants.

> i save all the cover letters nga na hired ko. i recycle and modify these based on the job that i'm applying for.

> once hired, it is VERY important to keep in touch with your clients/employers because most, if not all of them appreciate contractors/employees who always update them on their progress.

> kung dili makaya ang trabaho, balibari. ayaw ug kauwaw. ayaw pabilib nga makaya nimo kai cgurado nga ma one-star + negative feedback gyud ka ana.

> i treat each job as my first and last so that i can guarantee its' quality and accuracy.

> i keep a balance of hourly and fixed rate jobs because sa fixed rate, you can receive payment in your bank in approx. 7 days, whereas for hourly, it would take approx. 14 days. this way, malikayan ang "tingbits".

that's all i can think of for now. i hope makatabang ni ninyo.

p.s. the first job is always the hardest to get, never loose hope. apply, apply, apply lang gyud. ayaw ka discouraged anang "your application to blah-blah has been declined." kung nakaya sa uban, makaya sad nimo. never quit. good luck.

I agree to this! Early bird catches the worm! You also might want to check your previous clients. I send them an email blast telling them of my vacant sched. So if they have work on the pipeline they can also get me instead of recruiting new talents again.

post daw sample cover letter.. tnx!

cover letter for what? there are plenty of available drafts sa google bro. cover letters are dependent on your skills and job requirements. So you cant generalize if you want to have an effective cover letter that works for you.

Nakasuway nako ug Odesk sauna. Effective siya in some way kay naa man gyuy ni hire nako. Pero kailangan patient lang jud ka. 2 weeks ko naghuwat bago ko na hire niya permi lang ko take ug mga tests para naa kuy ma back up sa akong experience. Update sad ug portfolio, pra ma entice ang mga employers.. Pero ang problema kay naa gyuy lain na mag lower sa ilang rate bisan same ra level of work. Sahay, maka huna2, dili naman ta mabuhi sa ana nga rate ui.. Mao lang na ako reklamo sa site. Bag.o lang sila nag update sa ilang UI, so naglisod ko gamit karon..
