outsourcing

Finally a place for good quality outsourcing and coders.

In 5 days I received about 25 applications. Of these 25 applicants, 20 of them had a better combination of skill set and experience than any resume that I have had float across my desk in the last year….My providers are highly skilled, great communicators, detail oriented, affordable, and they WANT TO WORK! When is the last time you went to the university down the street and picked up a developer with those credentials?

I’ve checked the resumés myself and Adam’s right.

Actually oDesk is more than a place for outsourcing, but a whole system for hiring and managing coders. It’s rather techcentric. It’s not the sort of thing that a client would enjoy managing (one does need to know how to spec a project in technical terms and how to speak to a developer). It’s something for someone like me with one foot in the commercial realm and the other on the technical side. But to be honest I would probably have John do most of the developer management (depending on the project).
