I think I have all the response I can handle currently from new potential candidates! Thanks for the inquiries and effort in landing my business--I found that a simple skill test weeded out the good from the bad rather quickly.

As it stands I have a firm I will be working with as my primary, and a few candidates for some secondary work in the coming days.

I agree with the comments posted above--many times simple employees who can do basic webmaster tasks are pawned off as editors and designers, and the work is laughable.

The previous outsourcing company I used for a one week trial failed to hit the mark on design and editing, but I could see where they might be good for simple conversion and admin tasks. The supervising staff were attentive, but the hands-on people failed to make the grade--and the middle management buffer made it seem more challenging than it needed to be.
