Hi all

I was wondering if anyone else who got accepted for job
#46650 has had any response about the job. i was sent a
long document for translation, which i completed and
e-mailed to the client. Since doing so i have recieved no
response and i have tried to contact the man who posted the
job but have heard nothing.

If anyone knows how to get in contact with him please let
me know

Thank you for any info

Deadline for this job was Dec. 4 Dec 7, 2003

Can you wait until Dec. 9? It's a long public holiday in Spain.

Was it a sample or actual job? Dec 9, 2003

The title suggests the former while the body of the posting the latter. The poster of the job is platinum member and I feel he is serious about the job.
Having said that it appears strange that he has not reverted to you after your emailing the finished job. Holiday or no holiday, dashing off a few lines per email should not be difficult. After all there are cybercafes in many places.

TOPIC STARTER
it was as far as i know a serious job Dec 9, 2003

Unfortunately i still have not heard anything. I have sent a number of e-mails but still no response.

In the initial e-mail i recieved from him it said a total of 9 people had been selected as it was a large and urgent job.

This is serious, approach the job coordinators Dec 10, 2003

I think you will do well to approach Ralf Lemster. He is a very nice person and I think he is one of the job coordinators. Even if he is not, he is sure to tell you what to do and at the same time direct the request to the concerned people.
Hope to hear that the outsourcer had some very valid reasons for this turn of events.
