Guru.com scam-ish?
Filed under: add to del.icio.us
Here I was all geared up and ready to write a post on how to make a great Guru.com resume. I started looking around the site and something seemed a little strange, so I did a little research. I found this review of Guru.com over at Rateitall.com
“They have 800,000 currently registered “professionals” and 300,000 or so “employers”.
However, the HISTORICAL TOTAL of jobs awarded is about 22,000. Over about 6 years. So let’s say maybe 5,000 this year or so.
Now, do the math. One “employer” in 60 actually awards a project. One “professional” in 160 actually gets a project. ”
Also an interesting article on Guru.com at Associated Content
Guess it’s a good idea to concentrate on other freelancer sites…
