Not sure if off-topic, but what’s the best way to go about finding coding gigs at the moment? Need some urgent funds so need to reach out to people somehow.
I think of linkedin as a facebook for businesses leading you open to being spammed by agencies, which I don’t really want.
Though I have years of experience of coding across many languages and fields (audio, computer vision, e-commerce backends, etc), and github accounts over the years with some pushes to the core of a few major projects, I haven’t really kept the accounts, and past projects have nearly always been back-ends for clients so can’t exactly add them to a portfolio.
Languages I’m currently using would be python / php (including symfony and laravel), though happy to switch to javascript/html coding, some c/c++ etc, so I’m not tied to one area I guess.
Is there a decent place to advertise or, is there a better way lately? Thanks
Hard to not worry about it when after 2 years of applying to 2-4 every other day you get no responses. Like surely you’d think a resume with 10 years of experience would at least warrant a phone screen. I have several theories but I’m probably just another “armchair expert”
