Yesterday I was being interviewed by a prospective client. He had a 3 page ms-word document listing the changes needed to be done to his online store.
To give him an estimate, I guess I would have to mentally "rougly" do the 33 items in my head (or attempt to). Since the list is three pages, I'm guessing it would take me an hour.
I don't have a problem spending an hour. It's just that I see the client is doing this to 37 other freelancers. So basically, overall the system is expending 38 hours of labour to produce about 3 or 4 hours of paid work.
Can you guys see how this is not sustainable?
I feel anyone who does bulk interviews (over 20) is borderline abusing the platform. If you agree this behavior is not acceptable/sustainable, but can we do as a community to prevent it.
