Job Reviews on PPH
by Konstantin Y on 25 Apr 2010
Helen Farrell has been doing Russian to English translations for my company for over a year now. She is by far the most professional freelancer I have met on PPH and elsewhere, and an extremely pleasant person to work with. Helen is a gifted linguist, always delivers work on time and has excellent communication skills. Out of several dozen freelancers I have dealt with on PPH, Helen is the only one I have never had a single problem with. I highly recommend Helen and would be happy to provide further feedback and references.
