The On Demand Global Workforce - oDesk
I've been working through ODesk for 3 months now and only wish I'd found the site much sooner :)
Some things I learned from ODesk-
-when starting, go with short term jobs to build experience and possibly gain contacts
-there is always the chance that fixed-pay jobs may not pay but ODesk can't help with that
-update your account with projects you've done on ODesk to show your experience
-don't apply for too many jobs at once
-once you've gained experience and have some projects listed on your account, then go for the hourly contracts that DO PAY
-do have an "employee mentality" such as doing work in a timely manner, being able to communicate with those you work with
-sometimes a person who hires you may not be prepared with the project they posted, nobodys perfect :)
