I have a project that I want to get done with, and it requires PHP and MySQL expert. I post my project at odesk and others, of course I got responses.<p>Now because my background is not in CS (I work as a Product Manager and in big companies, I don't have to go through this process when I develop my products and ideas as I have engineering teams at my disposal. Also my tech background is in wireless industry, not web 2.0), how do I interview and select qualified and worthy developers to build my project? Most applicants are from India or Eastern Europe. I am in bay area.<p>Thank you for your response.<p>PS: if anyone here is interested in working on my project, please feel free to response here and I will contact you. Thanks.
Look at services like Forrst or even through Hacker News rather than services like these. You could find a great developer but you'll find a lot more terrible developers in my experience.
Good you need to follow the process<p>1. Identify one very good guy
2. Take help from him to get the team
3. get their previous projects
4. how mnay projects in git etc...
