How to Find Job in Odesk.com

This is my continuation topic on HOW TO BE A VIRTUAL ASSISTANT (VA)

Let just say you finish making your profile in Odesk, you have already polish it (with your pictures, skills, etc) , you have taken all the exams, and you are ready to apply for a job.


How to Find Job in Odesk?
Finding job, look at the top of your odesk website, there "Find Providers & job" then you click that and it will come out all the jobs (there are lot of criteria like lets click the Administrative Support)


Administrative Support

• Data Entry (625)
• Personal Assistant (501)
• Web Research (391)
• Email Response Handling (44)
• Transcription (112)
• Other - Administrative Support (403)

they categorize each job availability and how many so you click which category you want to apply. So when you click Data Entry. All of the Data Entry job ad will show. Just a reminder, when you apply a job, be sure its an odesk verified payor. How do you know? Well, when you click the job ad , the post will come out. At the top, if its color green (odesk verified payor) then this company's credit card is reliable.       

Now, odesk made some few changes, you can find it after you click DATA entry and when you see the job ad (the summary below is buyer- Money (green color) that means this buyer has history and the star means its the feed back from the employee/provider.       Also look at their job history, if they have hired ppl and pay their employees so you will know that this company is paying their employee or not, there is also feedbacks from the employee (you can check that by clicking on the ad and scroll down- it has all the information need, the buyer/employer required - some buyer would required that the provider/applicant have odesk history, has a certain certificate).          Pls. note: do not work if they are not odesk verified payor (you can see a green color, near the apply button -yellow color), some employer would ask for free sample, do not accept. Either they hire you or they dont.
