have you applied to a Contra job posting & ACTUALLY got the gig?
i've been thinking about the fact 100% of the work i've been contracted for on Contra has come from people who message me.
i've applied to numerous job ad's here on Contra but have never even got a follow-up from hiring contacts after applying.
is this an experience unique to me, though? am i doing something wrong, maybe not applying to enough?
hit me, what's the advice for actually booking a contra job posting? 👀 feel free to share in the replies here!

What's your point here?

to ask & listen to others experiences with applying for contra jobs on their job boards.

I got one job and it's a inbound. Other than i have tried multiple job applications but no results
Maia's avatar
yea that's been my experience too! a good amount of inbound leads but never any applications that materialized anything
i always wonder if i'm leaving a lot of money & opportunities on the table because of it though

I'm feeling the same. I didn't get any jobs yet. 😟
