My experience as an independent contractor for the first month of January 2011

January, 2011 is a challenging month for me.    I have accepted a position which entails managing an online office, and practicing my skills in technical writing, business research and human resource management at a maximum level.  It is a surprise that I still managed to accept contract drafting jobs and contract analysis.  In conclusion, I consider this month to be my most challenging and happiest to date.

I got to open my account in Skills Page and started to plug in a lot of my activities related to the skills I specialize.  For more details, please see my skills page at www.skillpages.com/christine.carpio-aldeguer.

For the most part, working online as an independent contract is not bad considering you get to work at home with nothing to worry on other overhead expense such as transportation, clothing and make-up.  The efforts  I have done for the month proved to be very productive.  

Aside from having fun from the work that I  experienced for this month, the excellent feedback from clients provided a bonus for my self-esteem.  This is without prejudice that my profile picture has been featured as a homepage in Odesk,  my official  home for seeking international clients online.   Anyway,  I posted this blog after so many attempts of thinking what kind of article I should post for the day.  I guess this post is a very special post.  It is my way of zoning out for a while so that I can start writing articles for next month.
