Tom DeSimone

Therefore we employed Tom DeSimone like a senior publisher for very part-time function in March & he appeared truly good & simple to use.
In the beginning we'd him do easy edits which appeared good, however once we offered him more complicated function to complete, he did not do this type of congrats.
Then if memory provides me, he vanished at-one stage & he apologized & we offered him another opportunity.
At-one level we requested him if he could create a media release & he explained he might, nevertheless when we first got it back, it had beennot a genuine news release, it was a lot more like articles. We donot enjoy it when separate companies lay to us about their abilities, once we spend your time & cash needing to possess the work redone.
Again, we allow this slip & delivered articles by what is meant to become contained in a great news release. Tom DeSimone accepted after taking a look at it again, that it did not read just like a qualified news release.
We gave him even more editing function, however it ultimately became obvious to us that Ben was more of the proofreader & NOT what we required that was a complete blown publisher. Not a problem, we'd taken care of the job & believed anything was good, but we got tangled up in issues & never noticed from Ben again despite the fact that he understood the job he done was never finished. Perhaps he was awaiting us, but many people we employ check up on us when they have not noticed from us in some time.
At that time we thought that Ben truly did not worry about employed by our organization, he simply got the job to obtain some cash & which was it, we managed to move on. Perhaps which was the reason behind his bad editing abilities, we were not going to imagine, it simply did not appear Ben truly cared one of the ways or another. Again, I'd no difficult feelings towards Ben.
Then many months later we eventually got around to shutting the agreement on odesk & offered Ben a typical evaluation, but we were not furious & our review resembled that. We mentioned he was a pleasant individual to work well with, but we did not feel it had been a great complement editing smart. Easy.
So imagine our surprise whenever we study this UNPLEASANT evaluation about our organization compiled by Tom DeSimone. I usually state, whenever a person is ALSO good, you've to become cautious about them just because a large amount of the full time they're covering how they CERTAINLY experience. Within this scenario it was the situation.
In Tom's evaluation he cautions additional independent companies to remain from us & complains about our firm's guidelines & methods (common paperwork & procedures of our company that's typical in virtually any qualified company). He also continues to say this was really uncomfortable coping with me. WHOA, he might have confused me. I am often AN EXCELLENT judge of personality & because we never had any severe words & at-one stage he explained he discovered operating at our organization really satisfying (I-donot remember his precise phrases) I thought all was good, but Ben had me snowed.
He also set us along for the reason that we're a little organization & possess a restricted budget as it pertains to just how many hours we are able to provide our team each week, therefore he set us along for that & subsequently THOUGHT items that were not true. That people anticipated him to perform wonders for the reason that restricted period of time. Ben was expected to complete editing. If he just got 5 websites finished, but these 5 websites were accomplished perfectly, that will imply more in my experience than 15 pages modified badly. If Tom really wants to utilize that as his justification in the place of acquiring responsibility for his abilities, that simply teaches you his genuine character.
This Is Actually The cause I chose to create another overview of Mary. We did nothing to deserve this horrible review, we-don't owe Ben an ideal wonderful review, but clearly if Ben does not get what he wishes, he bashes our organization for this. Simply unpleasant.
I wont let you know to not employ him since that is your decision, I am simply communicating my encounter with him which ultimately ended up to become really damaging, a lot more negative than simply his editing problems.
