| Given where you are in your career, you're inevitably a high-risk person to hire for contract work. That means that at least one of the following will be true: * you'll be ignored by good clients that can afford to avoid that risk * you'll be score low pay to compensate for the risk * you'll be hired for "good" pay by bad clients because they don't know what they're in for. * Nobody will hire you and you'll watch the months go by without making money or developing a portfolio. None of these are especially great for you! For now, you'll learn more and make more if you look for a job for a bit first. If circumstances or preference make that impossible, you have two options: * reach out for opportunity through your networks - friends, family, local events * list and/or bid your services through markets like elance, odesk, or Craigslist |
