Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? Every once in a while, I get barraged with job offers, often times over 15 a day, for 2-3 days. Then, suddenly, it all goes blank and I go weeks without receiving a single offer. Is there any explanation for this?

It's impossible to tell, I've never had a successful period where I'm rushed off my feet without a period, like now, where I struggle to get more than 5-10 hours equivalent a week. It happens so frequently, you start to think dark thoughts as to whether there's some sort of wider design to all this.

Similar experience here. A stream of invites, and then nothing.
I feel fairly certain that oDesk is trying to spread the love around. By shuffling the list of recommended freelancers, it tries to keep everyone coming back to the site. If you have a few freelancers monopolizing the job awards persistently , then that will gradually thin the ranks of active freelancers.

Hello Steve. You're not alone in that kind of drought actually. Count me in!
