A recent internal analysis at oDesk yielded some pretty interesting trends within our own network.
We were looking at the total hours worked by all providers and were segmenting the hours by various different criteria. One of the most startling trends we found was the growth in hours worked by providers from the Philippines.
The number of hours worked in Philippines has grown 4x in just 4 months.

The amazing thing to us is the fully viral expansion of work that’s going on in this country. We have not changed anything about our acquisition strategy in the Philippines so this is true word-of-mouth growth. Kudos to the providers that are driving this rapid expansion.
Here’s a few top providers:
yes ok lng kahit wala p akong job I,m still confident to be hire thank sa inyo guy na nag top sa list GO Pinoyz!!!!
Thank you author
This just proves how hardworking Filipinos are. A lot of us pinoys want to earn more than what we’re earning from our jobs. So alternative source of income is really a way to go.
