Hi George, welcome to Hacker News. If you're looking to join a startup, here's a couple suggestions on how to improve your odds when posting on HN:
- Make things easier for the companies you're trying to attract. Provide links to your Resume, LinkedIn, and/or Portfolio in your Ask HN post.
- A Jack of All Trades is a Master of None. You mention having background in Business, Marketing, Graphic Design, and UI/UX. Pitch 1 competency, preferably your strongest.
- Find ways to build experience and reputation in your current situation. I'm not seeing either based on what you've written.
- KG1 11y agoThanks for the great post I will do that. My major at school was Business & Marketing, after graduating I worked in the music business for about 5 years doing mostly admin work & product management. That's my background however I want to make a career change and get into the tech space that's why I made this post. I am currently learning UI/UX design and am no pro by any means yet, I just wanted to show potential companies that I am team player willing to learn and create value.
