I'm trying to charge $50 as a designer & developer.
I have many requests from US who are willing to pay this amount but they want me to be there, to meet personally first. Is that a common request or just an elegant way to say bye?
- rdouble 13y agoIt's common but sort of an indicator of a project that is going to suck. There are outsourcing firms in the USA who are staffed entirely by remote workers and pay $50-$65 an hour.
- rorrr2 13y agoAnd charge the client $100-300/hr.
- jes5199 13y agoThat might still be worth it for everyone involved. The process of vetting good engineers and designers from overseas is very difficult, and potentially very expensive
- rorrr2 13y agoIn my experience the middle man (recruiting company) rarely gives a crap about the quality of workers, as long as the client is paying for the ones they find.
- charlietran 13y agoVery common. You should charge more.
- jes5199 13y agoHow much would you have to charge to be able to fly to the USA every 2 months and meet with clients?
- csbartus 13y agoEven I'm charging more the common answer is: First we are trying to find somebody here (NYC, Chicago), if not we will get back to you.
