They do have $75, $125 and $175 jobs and they pay faster than any other signing service I've worked for -- within 7 to 10 days. The office staff has been helpful and cordial whether I call with good news or a problem.

But there's always a catch, isn't there.
1 There is a $60 monthly fee, as well as an annual fee
2 There are very few jobs (between 2 and 10 jobs a day for all of California).
3 Not all of the jobs that appear on the assignment board will be within a reasonable driving distance. I've seen jobs as far north as Shasta, CA and as far south as San Diego, CA.
4 Jobs appear on the assignment board, and from what I've seen, unless the job is in a really remote area it will be taken within 2 or 3 minutes.
5 The kicker is that their jobs can be posted anytime. I've seen them as early as 9:30 AM and as late as 4:45 PM. Their assignment board used to refresh automatically, but that feature isn't working right now. This means that if you want work you have to hover over the computer all day long, refreshing the screen every few seconds.

I would be interested to hear about other people's experiences with this company.
