Past forward to today, a classmate in RFP program encouraged me to have an online job. I really want to try it, after all, my current job is really not demanding (read: I go home at exactly 5:00 pm almost every day). My gimik days are only Wednesdays (for quiz nights) and Saturday (date nights), while I take RFP classes every Saturday morning (but this will end soon), so you could imagine the free time that I have. Further, instead of just surfing pointlessly (e.g. visiting Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo and Gmail accounts every five minutes or so) I might as well use my free time to earn cash.
Thus, my second coming to Odesk.
Setting up an account was easy. What's challenging was the exam part (later did I find out that there are leaked answers in some websites. Oh dear!) I pumped up my resume by taking various exams. After which, I applied for the easiest job I know of: data entry and Excel reformatting. What? An accountant taking data entry? Why not? As a newbie, I'm really looking for an "easy" job, the one that will not utilize any brain cells.
First place in English Spelling Test. Beat that! Kidding! |
Good luck! I'm also a firm believer in the "racketeering" way :)
ReplyDeleteHi.. I stumbled on your blog.. All the best on your journey in Odesk. I registered and took the exams too but I didn't exert effort to apply.
ReplyDeleteI did once though but was terrified during the interview as I was "sexually" harassed. :-(
Sorry about that. :(
DeleteActually, I still don't have an Odesk job since I got a new sideline.
ODesk rocks! I'm a full-time ODesk-er and now i don't have to apply for jobs, the clients reach for me na! hehe. Anyways, I love your blog. I'm learning so much from it.
ReplyDeleteI'm planning to invest in the near future (READ: 'PAG MAY PERA NA AKO) but I still have no idea how.:)
Wow, good for you! I'm happy to know that you find my blog useful. :)
