What's Wrong With an International Job Market
Since I've been using 'Freelance.com' to bid on graphics, art, and illustration jobs, a trend stands out as being quite noticeable. Here is an example of the types of international bids being returned for practically any type of freelance job:
$110... from Japan
$100... from USA
$90... from Europe
$85... from Australia
$80... from Canada
$10... from India
etc, etc, etc.
What!? $10 from India!!!
Yep, consistently unbeatably low.
So, I do some research and find out that an incredible 45% of all Freelance.com jobs are going to bids from India.
Becoming a Wal-Mart greeter sounds better all the time. I promise to smile, compliment, and not be too grumpy!
