Odesk is a freelance site, first you have to create your profile then bid for the jobs available available there, the more jobs done by you ontime, the easier next time you getting jobs from those job publisher. Anyway, you still need to compete with others in order to get jobs.

I have already registered there but didn't take the test which we have to give in order to bid for a job. I also don't know what is the probability of wining a bid for us.

Well you should take the test because that test will be used as a proof that you're capable of doing freelancer work for their client.

You should find the site by yourself by simply searching the net by the name 'odesk'. Anyway, the site link is www.odesk.com. You have to register there first then will get jobs. The test is required to verify whether you have the capability to compete for a job.

Hi Tom I am not a member of odesk because to bid something you need to give an exam there which is very time taking work and i don't have any time that's why i have not joined there but i am getting work from other sites.
Thanks.

If you have really take some time to read previous post here, you will not ask what is odesk, please do check the odesk yourself and do some research on google or others if you really interested to find out the details.

Is there any particular job for which you have to appear for American English skill test? I think everyone shouldn't appear for this.

OK, thanks Satyakam, I praise your honesty and wish you all the best.

Do you know if that exam is always same with other people or have different case for each people?
And anyone here passed the exam already?

**ssarkar** · 15-05-09, 04:34

I think no one would fail the Odesk readyness test. They have a guideline about how to pass the exam and they will ask you to follow that guideline while appearing for the exam.
I planning to appear for this test this weekend.

No that's not the case though they are giving links but it is very confusing i tried some months back but failed and i have not tried again.Mainly you loose patience to read so many lines.
