Any body active in odesk

[satyakam]

from the various posts it is then clear that if we bid for job which has to pay us on hourly basis, then that s/w will keep track. So it is not safe to bid for that job in an initial stage. Yes, Satyam, keep patience, you will win a job there.

i wonder how they calculate our hourly payment basis, as we are just bidding jobs and getting payment from finishing the work task. How to get the hourly payment in this case? Is it even we didn't do a jobs also will getting payment from the hourly salary?

well there two types of system one is hourly where odesk guarentees payment and another is fixed where a budget is fixed where odesk can't guarantee you payment an their software is so robust they can track which job your doing.
