Featured Providers October 10th
on Fri, 2008-10-10 10:33. News 230 assignments were completed with the feedback score of 5 last week. Here are the top 5 by the amount earned for the assignment:
| Provider | Type | Buyer's Feedback |
| Alexey Milashenkov | Hourly | Awesome |
| Andrew Murenko | Hourly | Great. |
| Michelle B | Hourly |
Outstanding provider. A pleasure to work with. |
| Achint Mittal | Hourly | Excellent understanding of java mobile phone application. During the project we investigated new technology which Achint mastered quickly and effectively. |
| Ranjay Kumar | Hourly |
Ranjay did an excellent job on our project! Our application is quite large and required an enormous amount of code re-factoring. He was able to familiarize himself with the app in a short amount of time and provide well designed, professional code. He has a great understanding of software design and best coding practices. We plan to rehire him in the future. |
Please note, only providers with public profile access are featured

And another!
Just chatted with my next potential client & we have another closure this evening.Another job for me! Yipeeeeeeeee!
How easy does this get!
He loved the trial work I did for him.
And establishing a 1:1 personalized contact always helps you sell yourself better, understand the job better & most importantly assure the client of your capabilities.
Now greedily awaiting my 3rd closure/job.
And a first place tie! Wowie! Congratulations folks!
Can't we possibly have some sort of awards for Newbies? It would be such a shot in the arm. Often applications get lost in the crowd & the seasoned older providers, bag assignments owing to high feedback scores. The newbie is just left with cutting back his pricing & hoping to bag his first job. Gradually becoming disillusioned. Some newsletter, some mention on the site or some award - just anything to keep these guys with oDesk, motivated & driven. The help-desk staff sure pitches in, guiding the newbie - but an award for just setting up your profile or loading relevant projects and so on could be so much fun & encouraging. And these needn't be any cash awards just maybe an image of a trophy on the profile page. 
Just me rambling my thoughts.

We do feature providers with
on Tue, 2008-10-14 04:16.We do feature providers with 100% complete profile who got their forst job. (See here).
But are you suggesting that we also feature providers who got 5* feedback for their first assignment?
Give me more details on who think should get featured, I'll be happy to look into it and do another post (or more info in the same post).
Thanks,
Olga
2 first places

Hurrah!

Yippeeee....!

BTW - for all those newbies & ones losing hope: I bagged this assignment within 2 days of listing my profile!
joined oDesk on Sept 25th but worked a week on the profile, delaying the odesk readiness test so I wont appear in the provider search. Once I listed myself I had 4 interviews lined up, 1 closure within a day! I had applied to 10 positions. yep, this sure works! A robut profile is the name of the game.
