Ask HN: Has anyone got any offers via “Who wants to be hired” thread?
- muzani 8y agoI got an interview last year. It was a very good match, but bad timing for them and me and we didn't move forward with it.
- seanwilson 8y agoI have. I've also met several long term clients with interesting projects via the "Seeking freelancer?" thread as well.
- marktangotango 8y agoI had a company reach out but they were east coast and remote wasn’t an option for them, and relocating not an option for me. Ces la vie.
- cmorgan8506 8y agoI've gotten about two years worth of contracting work from posting on one of these threads. A lot of tire kickers, and a lot of "take this test and then we'll talk" offers as well. I just ignore those, but I think, in general, it's not a bad network facilitator.
- ioddly 8y agoI have also pulled some good work off the freelancing thread. Only takes one to make it worth your while.
- prashant10 8y agoI am facing a bit of dilemma over here. I also have tried to ignore "take this test and then we'll talk" approach but turns out I have missed quite a few good opportunities. Need to change my strategy a bit? I think yes
