Description
During this small group session, participants will learn:
the basics of how work is passed through ProZ.com
what steps to take in order to improve their profiles and meet more clients
A member of ProZ.com staff will illustrate these points by reviewing 2-3 profiles of session attendees. Questions will be addressed at the end of the session. All participants are welcome to schedule a short follow-up call with the trainer after attending the session, during which they can - if needed - receive additional guidance in completing their ProZ.com profiles for success.
