I have been testing out a few people and I have still not found someone I want to work with. Either to lazy, too slow, language barrier or no attention to detail, my work and clients are too important for me to just settle for blah.

Send my your best response. If it's copied and pasted from all of your responses make sure it's good. I can tell. If it's originally crafted you get my attention first.

Need samples, history and rate. Not looking to pay $12/hr in India. I also won't pay high end either $60/hr plus. Must be flexible and motivated to go after cool work and try new ideas. Must be able to speak clearly!!!!!!!!!

I will be going through submissions this week and will be contacting people next week for phone or in person interviews. Thanks for your time.
