Tips on How to Get That First oDesk Assignment

oDesk is a marketplace where freelancers and employers meet. Job openings posted by employers could range from web designing, to programming, to article writing, to admin support, to data entry, to forum posters. With these kind of job openings, freelance web designers, writers and programmers are now able to have the opportunity to get paid either by the hour or per project doing what they're good at in the comforts of their own homes. Yes, an employer from the US could hire a freelance web designer from the Philippines, or an employer from Australia could hire a virtual assistant from India. While this setup maybe what most would call a "dream job" or the ideal job, it still takes quite some effort from the part of a freelance provider to get noticed by an empolyer. Fact is, with freelancers having similar skills and different rates and with employers having different preferences, it's not always easy to land on a job at oDesk. However, it should be noted still that the first thing an oDesk employer looks at is the profile of an oDesk freelance provider. And that is mainly what a freelance provider should work on.

Time Management Tips For Working at Home

Many people have the dream of working at home. Its easy to fantasize about waking up late, going out for a walk or to lunch in the middle of the day, and perhaps even wearing your slippers in the office. However, once you have found a way to make it happen, you still have to deal with time management issues. When you are working at home, the way you structure your day is completely at your own discretion. While this might be rather nice, much of the time this level of flexibility does come with a fair amount of pitfalls.

Let's face it; today there are more distractions than there were twenty years ago. The same invention that allows for many people to work at home, namely the Internet, can also serve as a tremendous distraction as well. Five minutes checking a favorite Blog or a social networking site can easily turn out to be a lot more than five minutes! Little time wasters of this sort must be guarded against as they can come in a variety of pesky forms.
