Ok, I'll hire the programmer. Take me to him now
Why would I not choose programmerforhire for my task?
Big projects; unless you're comfortable with slow, sustainable, long-term growth, at this point, I'm just one guy with a few contacts, so there are limits to what can be achieved before tommorrow.
What professional experience do you have?
My resumé is quite long. The bulk of that experience is in designing and building Web Applications and Web Services under traditional onsite labour hire contracts. Other achievements of note are a large Data Transformation, some small Windows Applications, and a Windows Mobile Application. I've amicably completed numerous contract and freelance jobs.
Some companies I've completed works for include:
- Perpetual Trustees
- Commonwealth Bank of Australia
- Anderson Consulting
- Genworth Financial
- Roads and Traffic Authority (NSW)
- Daemon Consulting
- Workstar
- RecruitAdvantage
- GPoint.com.au
- Ampol
How long have you been freelance?
I've done some freelance works on and off for years between on-site contracts with agencies. But my last contract through an agency concluded in July 2008. It went quite well, but I believe that was my last and I'm now committed full-time to my client base.
Do you have any academic qualifications?
Yes, loads...
- Master of Information Technology (Web Technologies), Macquarie University, 2005 (High Distinctions)
- Bachelor of Applied Science (Computing Sciences), University of Technology, Sydney, 1991 (Credits)
Why would I choose programmerforhire over someone on a freelancing website?
Full-time professional attention. I'm not just hoping to make some money on the side: this is my day job. ProgrammerForHire is a registered business (ACN 123 072 622).
I've tried those sites myself and found them unsatisfactory. It's hard to trust someone on the other side of the globe, and even in this day and age, trust remains a crucial part of business. You could try a hundred 'backyard' providers on freelancing websites before you find someone skilled, experienced, communicative, and trustworthy. Expect a lot of misses before you find the one.
Why would I choose programmerforhire over an Indian/Rumanian/Swahilian?
I'm Australian like you. I speak English the way you do and know your culture the way you do. We communicate like countrymen, not foreigners. I can see your market the way you do. I'm in your timezone. We can meet in person, speak on the phone, and build trust in each other upon our shared experience. I tend to work when you do and take holidays when you do. Our financial arrangements have no international borders to cross. I have all the advantages and efficiencies a first world nation can offer. My deliverables are higher quality with less of your time invested.
I don't bait-and-switch by quickly starting poorly specified projects then leading you along with "oh, but you didn't say it had to do that?! It will cost extra." tactics.
I don't like to play the "It works" game, either. That's the one where the developer declares it works without testing any of it and leaves you with the laborious task of making sure it really does work. I think you deserve to be able to give it the quick once-over with confidence that all the primary use cases have been checked.
My internet and electricity connections extremely rarely go down.
I don't really cost any more than a programmer working from a shanty in a third world. Food can be prepared cheaply anywhere in the world. I guess I pay a little more rent because of my success, but there are plenty of Australians who pay less rent than a computer programmer in Mumbai. Overall living expenses aren't as big a gap as you might think, and there are no middlemen siphoning out their cuts.
What technologies do you prefer?
- Web Applications
- HTML, CSS, Javascript, Ajax, PHP, Python, Coldfusion, ASP.NET, Perl, BASH
- Databases
- Postgresql, MySQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server
