Integration with Facebook Makes Commenting to vWorker Easier


The vWorker site appreciates and uses comments from users to continually improve the site for both workers and employers. In order to make contacting vWorker easier, comments are now posted using Facebook. This allows workers and employers to log in to their Facebook to leave comments, questions, and concerns directly to vWorker. The previous third party used by vWorker for users to leave comments often faced bug issues and comments could easily be lost. Another advantage of using Facebook is allowing users to see comments in an organized list relevant specifically to that individual.
vWorker values the input submitted by vWorker employer and worker users to continually update and upgrade the site’s features. During a usual month, vWorker makes nearly one hundred enhancements and fixes to the site, many of which are made by users.

How to Win in Arbitration


The number one way workers on vWorker can win arbitration every time they go into it is to always remain professional and courteous. In the vein of being professional and courteous, vWorker would like to remind all users entering into arbitration that insults and threats are unacceptable and an easy way to lose your arbitration.
It is also important for workers to upload all work files before a deadline or milestone arrives. In the case there is not a deadline, 100% of your deliverables need to be uploaded at the beginning of the arbitration.
Other things to keep in mind while in the midst of your arbitration is to always provide factual information, to answer the flaw list accurately, to answer direct questions with direct answers, and to refrain from arguing.
All workers on vWorker should follow these tips in order to win their arbitration.

Using the anti-bidding spam feature, you can easily sort out legitimate bidders from those who only waste your time. This feature requires bidders to sum up the project in their own words when submitting a bid. It also allows employers to report those using committing bidding spam and wasting your time.

What is the Tech Sherpa Program?


The Tech Sherpa program allows you to replace multiple specialists with one specialist. The duties covered by a Tech Sherpa include project management, team leader, outsourcing manager, and quality control manager. The experience a Tech Sherpa has includes doing technical work themselves as well as managing those doing technical work. Hiring a Tech Sherpa is best when you have outsourcing needs for larger projects that you have budgeted more than $1, 000 for. The Tech Sherpa program is a fairly new program that allows for entrepreneurs to opt for a short term Tech Sherpa versus the long term and eventually more expensive Tech Co-founder.
All Tech Sherpa’s from www.vworker.com are carefully screened before hiring and matched with you to best suit your business needs. Tech Sherpa’s price range vary from $25 an hour to $95 an hour depending on their technical skills and experience.
