A lot of us are in the same position, and I don't think I deserve special treatment, but a referral would be greatly appreciated! I've been applying everywhere, and it's dismal. I'm a catering delivery driver for a local restaurant company, and preparing sandwiches at Whole Foods to try to make ends meet. TC: $20 per hour YOE: 8
I'd take off "software consultant" as that would easily be a conflict of interest.
How so?
They could easily make the argument that you'd be spending time on those projects while working your salaried job.
