    mwzd, I need to tell you that you hire him really chip for RS6000/pm. I mean REALLY.

    Guys, don't beleive anything that written on Wiki or anywhere on net. It just differs from real life. Good programmer (C# or Java) can get paid up to $2k monthly and $2,5k+ for seniors for example. Lot of western companies opened here in last few years. And yes, many people from RAC, SL, GAF, Elance work there.

    If you don't believe me we can make a bet.

    If you are not happy with current issue, then try to find someone from China (if they understand things well), next few years they will be cheap, but I think not so much too. Anyone who work here for peanuts ($1-$3 per hour and above 25 years old) are just stupid moron and that's it. Probably anyone don't hire him locally.

    Cheap freelance wil die in 2-3 years. Freelance is a lot more stress than you can imagine. Me for example switch to russian seo. Clients pay more than USA, just think about it, sounds more than strange, but that is reality + absent competition of "hi sir hire me for $10, I can do it". 70% of clients in Rentacoder have budget of $100 and want to be in top for casino keywords.

    Thanks
    That appears to be more accurate although I suspect you are mentioning metro cities. Smaller cities may be a bit less but I am suspicious if one can get a computer literate fresher for odd online jobs for $500/month

    Wll this rapid rise of salaries in India will be suicidal for Indians in the long run. If pople start making 60000-80000 in India then why would any transfer jobs overseas.
    However quality of cheap labour is really atrocious sometimes.

    Now, can someone please tell me what is the best way for me to hire a person full time ?
    where can I look for such folks?

    How it can be suicidal ? Yes, no need to transfer jobs, and also no need to work online, find clients, do job. Just apply to it offline and that's it. And that's good. If you are talking why anyone will pay someone in India/Ukraine/Romania/etc. such money then it's another story. It's a big software/web companies and they can allow it for themselfs and they get qualified people in exchange. How you can compete with that I really don't know.

    Aatma, once again all depends on salary. Try to increase it a little and see how it goes. Did you try B/S/T ? What you call cheap+decent may vary, but it for sure not 5k rupees. Main problem is that people who maybe even hired someone for that salary will never tell you that. By obvious reasons.

    I thought that was the whole idea, to be self sufficient.

    Pay peanuts and get monkeys...

    We provide terminals - 8 hrs a day x 5 days a week @ $1250/mo. - in case you need a pro solution.
