A freelance marketplace is always full of cheap and mindless people who are not able to deliver anything. They place random bids and produce crap.
Unfortunately most of clients don't realize that it's not possible to get a quality work for $20 per hour or even less. They get frustrated and disappointed in a whole idea of hiring a freelancer.
P.S. If you need a reliable person for your Python or Javascript work – just drop me a line ;-) http://careers.stackoverflow.com/msamoylov http://careers.stackoverflow.com/msamoylov
- GFischer 12y agoI disagree, it is possible to get quality work for U$ 20 or less... but it probably takes so much time to sort the actual decent bidders from the busts than it should not be worth it. I know of several good developers that started out on those sites, but were quickly snatched full-time by companies that realized they were good.
- msamoylov 12y agoI could agree about prospective juniors with extremely low rates. But, a SUPER DUPER FULL-STACK DEVELOPER with a decade of experience for $20/hr doesn't make much sense. Most probably he has no idea what he's doing. His communication skills and the results of his work won't be impressive.
