Overall Satisfaction with Freelancer.com

Freelancer.com is a service to help freelancers find work.
  • They have a web app
  • I've found they require and charge you $5 or more for every exam, even ones proving you can read/write/speak English or other languages.
  • I've found they charge you $100 for a verification fee that provides little to no value.
  • In my opinion, many of the postings on their site are scams.
  • I believe It is PAY-TO-WIN - the more you pay, the more of a chance you have to get work.........
  • Lots of up front costs, lots of time spent, zero ROI, in my opinion.

Did implementation of Freelancer.com go as expected?

No

Would you buy Freelancer.com again?

No

I actively tell people to avoid Freelancer.com. If you've played video games that are "Pay to Win", this is the "self-employment" version of that, in my opinion. As an engineer with over 15 years of experience as a full time employee at Fortune 500s, startups, and as a self-employed consultant, I can tell you that you can do better hustling on your own. I believe Freelancer.com is setup to make money and your well-being and success are a very low priority for them.
