Hi Prakaash

I prefer to do it through ProZ, because in that way it can be considered for statistics and as a Platinum member, my bid will go to a better position. I do so even when the outsourcer wants to be contacted through e-mail, I bid through both means.

(but proz is a fantastic site, and many jobs have come my way through my profile and website.) ▲ Collapse | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Which one is better to use for applying to available jobs- Bidding or sending emails?
