When a client and freelancer have worked together previously on Elance, they can easily continue working together by creating a Repeat Job.  This allows either the client or the freelancer to create a new job without having to go through the job posting, proposal review and award process.  The repeat job will create a new Workroom. No Connects are required for the freelancer to accept or submit a repeat job.
