Ask HN: How many people have already found a job after all the mass layoffs?
- thinking001001 4y agotumbleweed I've been trying different industries
- kachinga123 4y agoYou mean as a software developer moving from a software company to something like the automobile industry? Any luck yet? Wishing you the best!
- jbirer 4y agoI have been freelancing since 2013, never got affected by a lay off. I work 2 months and then sleep / travel for 3-4.
- kachinga123 4y agoWas it hard to get into freelancing? How do you find projects?
- jbirer 4y agoYes, very hard. Had to accept 400$ for a large project once. 20% of earnings taken by platform until I took off, but it eventually paid off after gaining some experience and reputation, it's much easier now. Discord, Telegram, Reddit, anywhere. You just have to be aggressive and message people. I have a gig now.
