Guru.com vs. Turing.com

Guru.com is great if you are a freelancer looking to connect with clients to get projects, but it is not for people looking for a steady flow of work or a more permanent employment situation. There is a learning curve before you can successfully get clients, but once you get the hang of it, it works nicely.

I would rate Turing much higher if they had viable candidates that were US residents. Their candidates are qualified, but unusable in most companies.

Honestly, As I stated, Turing was a total waste of my and my company's time. We cannot employ outside of the US or Canada, even though an agency like this. If they were upfront about what they truly are, and overseas employment agency, I would have never signed up for it.

• Honestly, none.
• Turing was a complete waste of my and my company's time. Nothing they did but they were not transparent upfront on the residency of their developers.
