Outsourcing Ruining My Day!
I am using Elance for the first time to find a web designer for a company i am working with.
It's drving me nuts! I literally hate the elance design and interface. I am also going "biscuits" at reading all the applications that clearly haven't read anything I have said in my job posting.
We are looking for ONE person to work with us on an hourly rate to design a number of websites, and if we hit it off, we'd like to work with that person in the long term. That was made fairly clear in the ad, and I am being bombarded with proposals and messages from companies that love to talk about how great, good and competent their "team" is.
Most of them have nothing to offer in terms of a portfolio most of them have totally misunderstood what we are looking for and have just sent a script they use to solicit business.
Whats worse, the inbox is full of messages and I have to wade through all the crap just in case I miss out on some one who can unerstand what we need and can meet the criteria!
ITS DRIVING ME NUTS!!!!!!
Has anyone else had these kind of frustrations or experiences and if so, can anyone offer an elance newbie and fan any constructive advice? You'd cheer me up and make this week a lot more manageable if you do!
Thanks for reading
