Loading ...Guru.com introduces ExpertRating Skill Tests
Yesterday, Guru.com launched their skill tests feature in partnership with ExpertRating:
“Skill Tests prove to Employers that you have the exact talent they’re looking for and that you are up-to-date in your area of expertise. When you receive 60% or above on a test, you can post it to the Skills section of your profile, and it will appear with an ExpertRating Certified Professional icon.”
Each test will cost ‘only’ $4.95 (and apparently this is the ‘discounted rate’) 
This is rather late is you ask me as Elance had this for a long time now, and for free! Instead of trying to get more money Guru should have launched this as a free service, as I am not sure who would want to pay for this… I would have liked to see an external service like BrainBench (or even ExpertRating) integration with all these freelaning sites so you don’t have to take tests for each site individually.

Congrats to Guru on launching ExpertRating tests. This will certainly help, but I hope it becomes free one day like on other marketplaces. Guru claims to be the biggest marketplace, and I am sure they will make testing free just to live up their status.
