Don't miss the "Who Wants to Be Hired" and "Freelancer" threads that get posted each month by this auto account: https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=whoishiring.

The Jan threads are now closed (HN threads close to new comments after 2 weeks) but there will be another one on Feb 1. No guarantees, of course, but people definitely get work that way.

Good luck! I hope you find something soon.
