Web Researcher

I was offered a medical web researcher job in oDesk and passed the test that was given to me. I am quite excited to start working on the job because these are the kinds of work that I wanted. Something to stimulate my brain and I really felt it when doing the test specially with the limited time that was given, although I hope when there's already actual work that I am given a much longer time to complete the task.

I am really looking forward to this work and I hope I could bring a lot to the table. I better go start brushing on my web research skills and techniques so I could prove to the company that hired me that I am the right man for the job. Besides, having a medical web researcher as a job description sounds pretty cool if you ask me.

Odesk

A few years ago, I was quite fascinated by the idea of working at home because of the perks like the things I mentioned in my previous post and decided to register at Odesk. I was a bit frustrated with the service though because in order to have a great chance of getting a project, you should either be an old timer with a very high review rating or is willing to provide slave labor. So I looked for my opportunity outside of that system and was very fortunate enough to find some work with some steady cash flow.

I decided to search for a job there again today because I think I currently have a lot of free time in my hand and I felt I could be using that time in very productive ways, you know, like earning more money. This time though I think I now have built a particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people with the same particular set of skills. But if I get a job at Odesk, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for more. I will not pursue more work. But if I don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you. Wait, that didn't sound right. Oh well. Fingers crossed.
