I am a Computer Technology grad working for a SaaS video conferencing company as a Helpdesk rep, and former sorta Junior System Admin role. After trying my longest to negotiate higher pay, I am looking for another job but now in programming. I am already very behind on bills and debts, and the sooner I can hustle some side jobs the better. I have experience with iOS, Ruby, Rubymotion HTML/CSS, some Javascript and Rails. Does anyone need any iOS apps,Ruby coding, maybe a Wordpress setup or maybe some coding work? My job's work schedule does not let me go to after-work meetups so it is hard for me to find mixer's and networking events currently. I'm based in Los Angeles and willing to come work for you, or bust my ass coding up some work remotely. Also I will relocate anywhere who can pay me at least 60-70k. Email is in profile, and I can send you resume, github, etc. Thank you.

I highly encourage you to look at the Midwest.<p><a href="http://www.hudl.com/jobs/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hudl.com/jobs/</a><p><a href="https://up.jobs/" rel="nofollow">https://up.jobs/</a><p>Actually, pretty much <a href="http://www.siliconprairienews.com/opportunities" rel="nofollow">http://www.siliconprairienews.com/opportunities</a>
1. don't work under market or signal that you will unless you are actually an under market-skills programmer. 60-70k for someone with no professional programming experience might be the market (which is currently flooded with junior devs from the various hacker schools) -- it really depends on your skill level.<p>2. It might take a few weeks to land something -- have you negotiated a payment plan with your creditors. What is the least amount you need to make for a side project that will take some pressure off?<p>3. your email is not in your profile. Contact me: loumfranco -at- gmail -dot- com<p>4. I will tech screen you today (or this weekend) if you want and give frank advice. I can make intros in NYC -- I am a consultant and my clients are all hiring (as is nearly everyone). This would be full-time in NYC (contract and perm are available).
Have you tried freelancer or rentacoder. I recently hired someone on freelancer to do some work for me. It's the first time i'm using it, but so far so good.
Are you willing to consider (generally well-engineered, object-oriented), and do you have any experience with, PHP? What kind of experience do you have with Javascript?
