Been posting in the "who wants to be hired?" and the freelancing posts for more than a year. Just have got three mails - one asking for a price for a project, and they bailed when I asked for details and mentioned a standard freelancing rate; other wanting me to do a project and asking me to wait for them to complete information to begin, but it's been months; and the latest, someone (a scammer?) offering to get me a position in a startup but by receiving a 10-15% cut (or something like that) of the salary.

But I still have to try, maybe someday I can get lucky.
