Don’t Lose Hope – You’ll Land Your Job Soon!

Do Simple Projects at Low Cost

If you are new to the freelance world, you’ll have quite a tough time getting a big project. You should try to find a simple project and charge A small for it. Some buyers are willing to go with the lowest possible price and this is a great way to earn those ‘first reviews’.

I myself was a part of freelance industry for quite sometime before I got my first project; the reason as I noticed was my prices. After I lowered my prices to half of what I would normally bid, I landed my first project.

So before you can earn healthy sum of money you have to impress the buyer with your work as well as your prices.and your reviews

Write a Detailed Bid Description

Communication plays a vital role in winning or losing a bid. The way you present yourself and your skills should address all the requirements of any project. It is just like selling a product and here the product is your services. Many programmers tend to post auto descriptions and as a result don’t get any project. So, you should read the project specifications clearly and write the description accordingly. Below is a simple format of the description:

• Write the salutation — Something like Dear Sir/madam or simple Greetings!

• Introduction – Write about your experience and skills and show samples.

• Bid Details – Provide the details of your bid

• Ask Questions — Ask questions about the project. It shows you’re wise enough to know their exact requirements.
• Signature – Write your name or company name.

Don’t Follow the CIAR Rule!

You have surely heard of the CIAR rule (client is always right) many times before. But the reality is contrary, the client is not always right! If they actually knew everything they could have done their projects themselves. That’s why there are programmers, we aren’t here to just please them while agreeing with whatever they say, and they want our advice to make the project more beneficial the long run. If you think that something they are asking for is unreasonable, go tell them. Buyers are willing to hear other ideas and suggestions for their project; they do want their project to be the perfect one, don’t they? So, you should politely explain the downfalls of that particular solution and the benefits of another solution.

Conclusion

In short, I strongly believe that the winning bids are those that are grammatically correct and assure the buyer that they would get the project completed according to their requirements quickly and cheaply.

I , like many others , found myself in the need for mobile software and that’s when the internet comes in hand . Being a very active guy , i always come back looking for more software that suits my needs .

Fortunetely , these sites usually have their softwares divided into categories by the brand of the phone , operating system and so on . One of the best Nokia mobile software communities i have seen till now is MobUniverse . Offering a range of very useful programs , this is everyone’s paradise , having even the option to choose different Nokia mobile themes that suit your phone and your taste . Further more , it seems that people that haven’t come in contact with mobile software until now , need a little help , so , there are several tutorials to help you get started .

And even more , as a bonus , you even have the opportunity of sending free SMS to USA, what could be even better than this ?

The importance of properly designed software of any kind cannot be overestimated. In these days when software production and maintenance costs are escalating in relation to total systems costs and there is a shortage of skilled software developers, the computing profession can not afford to produce substandard software. Yet, much poor software is produced, due to poor problem definition and poor program design.

Much can be done to improve problem definition. The problem of poor program design can be overcome by the adoption of formalized methods of design such as JSF (Jackson Structured Programming).

“Programming courses should teach methods of design and construction, and the selected examples should be such that a gradual development can be nicely demonstrated”.
