Landing a job

[f44c0e84]

I find it very difficult landing my first job, is so sad and discouraging, even after upgrading memebership, please is there something I need to do?

You just finished school and have no experience, do you think telling your clients you just finished and haven't done any project will convince them? Since there first work might even be risky. On your profile I mean. It's also hard for most toprated as well. But don't give up.

First, there are no guarantees you will get a job by upgrading your membership. Second, your profile mentions clients in the past year. It would be helpful if you posted a portfolio of those jobs (with their approval) and asked for testimonials. It's hard to get a job if you cannot prove you can do the job.
