Ask HN: Best freelance aggregator?

Posted by matheus2740 on Friday August 31, 2018 @01:18PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I'm currently in a sort of a pickle and need to get some freelances for the next two or three months. I have 10+ years experience as a web, mobile and systems developer, mainly in Python, C/++, Javascript and Objective-C/Swift.Can you recommend me some trustworthy freelance aggregator sites where I can find some quick gigs?

Thank you for linking this podcast! I just listened to the two episodes, and man, that was some awesome journalism.

The thing is, direct conversions do not really work. I don't think they operate much in Brazil, but if they did, the salaries would be adjusted to the Brazillian reality (minimum wage, average person income, purchasing power, etc), so in reality, it would be much less than 28 grand USD. The more real conversion is to use a purchasing power index, such as the big-mac index. Using the 2018 data for the big-mac index, that would probably equate to mostly 30.000,00 BRL, which is 2500 BRL/month, which is above Brazil's minimum wage, but it's still a very basic salary, probably comparable to earning 2200,00 USD in the US.

I've watched a series of lectures on the subject by Harvey Mudd college, on youtube [1]. It helped me a lot, tho, I'd have to say these are introductory level, not really a deep dive, but more useful as an introduction.
