I'm building a side-project website that will be a database of freelancers people can consult when they're looking to hire freelancers or outsource part of a project. Kind of like LinkedIn but without all the bloating. I'd like to know what you, entrepreneurs and/or freelancers, what you look for in the people you outsource to or hire temporarily.
Obviously, you'll ask the freelancer to know the language your platform or application has to be programmed in. Are related skills (HTML for PHP developers for example) a necessity? What about availability? Hourly rate? Past realizations? Experience?
Let me know, and thank you for your time.
I typically put a ton of thought and and research into projects that I want to have done and usually go to great lengths in writing it out. I expect the same in return.
