Looking for work 2009-02-10 16:17:29 Reply

*puts on flame resilient coat*

I'm 90% sure I'll get flamed to hell, but whatever, I'm broke and need some cash:

Is anyone looking for a programmer?

I can code both in AS2 and 3. I don't have a portfolio and I haven't completed a game, so nothing to show. The only thing that is online that I did was the "portafolio" of this website: http://www.buddah.com.ar (XML's for MKT Interactivo/TV aren't there yet, hence why the links don't work).

Other than that, I'm just leaving myself to your will NG.

I'm obviously not going to waste my time, so serious replies... if that's possible here. I've tried looking around the freelance websites but those are always filled with Indians or Pakistanis and have 2000 bids the minute it's posted...

Anyways... Hit me up if you've got any work you're willing to pay for.

Ah, and since we're on topic, maybe we could make this a "hire a programmer" thread. I'm sure I'm not the only one looking for work.

sorry, i get that you want some cash, but why do you think people will think you can finish things if you don't really have anything finished to show them? not trying to be rude or anything but if i was paying you, i'd want to see some of your finished work first.

I feel the same way as you, except im an artist, and i would like to find work also.

I would want to make a short game of some sort and i have some good ideas, but im too lazy to code them.

If you are interested pm me or add me to msn, tadas202@msn.com

Thanks.

TBH, although you have no proof, I believe you do know coding. However, speaking from personal experience, you NEED a decent portfolio if you want to tempt employers, even if it's just a cool 45-line demonstration of API drawing (although a full-blown game or interactive/dynamic site would be better). Until you have something public to demonstrate your skills, you're unlikely to find anyone willing to pay for them.

I know what you mean, the first thing they ask for when you're looking for work in this field is a portfolio...

I guess that's what I should get started on first. I'll put together some of my work, polish them up and show them off. Feels like I'm selling myself, heh.

Anyways, thanks for the replies.

Cheers.
