Chances of newbie at oDesk without feedback?

I understand how newbies who joined oDesk worry about getting hired.  I came from that stage too. Referring to my previous post, I got a lot of declined application also.

I just read a post on our discussion board with this question "Can someone tell me if there is still hope to getting a job without feedback or am I just wasting my time?" from DG.

With a lot of contractors , most of them with feedbacks, are bidding on the same job as your bidding also? How big is your chances? It is understandable that newbie like us will worry.


On my previous post, I share with you my very 1st contract at oDesk.  I've done my first contract and I have been paid already. I didn't get feedback yet.  And it is okay because I was offered for another task by the same employer and I am happy of that.  And you know what?  I got another job and hopefully for a long term.

So for newbie at oDesk like me, hang in there. As I've said on my reply to that post at the discussion board, "Don't loose hope".
