Any companies hiring?
Hi folks,
As you may know, I own an Design/IT company in Portugal. We are NOT related to VPS, Dedicated Servers and such. We only provide bare cPanel hosting for some companies and email. Never been a competitor, at all. We work with Vinyl (large format), car wrapping, business cards, and the list goes on.
We invested a lot in this company but business isn't going too well right now in Portugal. August was a really bad month for us.. I need to get a job as DevOp / System Administrator or something alike to fund our company and give use to my time. José, our Designer, has some work, but I need to find a stable company to work for, preferably long-term. I'm always investing in order to grow.
Do you guys know any company hiring right now?
I'm aware many Hosting companies are always hiring, but those don't hire that often. They simply have a "We're hiring" page in their website.
Here's my LinkedIn for reference: https://linkedin.com/in/miguelangelopt
I hope I can get some suggestions, as I need a job as soon as possible. Those who know me, are aware that I'm a great employee.
Cheers,
Miguel

did you try those sites that presents freelancers e.g. https://www.upwork.com/ this is just an example site someone mentioned to me "odesk" long ago looks like they changed name.
best wishes to you.
I don't like competing for the project, at all. I'm looking for a serious company, webhosting related, or related to Amazon AWS since I've used their infrastructure for over 5 years and possess a quite big experience there. E.G: Load Balancers, DB clusters, VPC's, etc.
Let's write a bunch of content for LET under pseudonyms and make some serious CC dolla.
I'm sure you'll find a job fairly quickly as long as your asking salary is as low as your asking prices when you're looking for servers around here.
Talk about kicking a man while he's down.
But yeah, I laughed.
Wouldn't be a bad idea, getting a $7 payment hehe.
I told Alex I was more than willing to write some content but he hasn't responded me at all for 3 weeks.
I think the rule "Don't be a dick" applies here.
This is LET, what are you expecting? People want to pay less for the value. I've written a month ago the reason. Basically, as long as the VPS's aren't for business, then I don't need to spend that much money on it. That's how you try to save money.
Times are tough, I wish you all the best of luck!
Not an issue. Just don't want him or anyone else replying to the topic if they can't be of any help.
Starting a company isn't easy, at all. But I'm willing to do my best to recover all the losses and grow the company.
Thank you, I appreciate a lot!
This is why I suggested pseudonyms.
I am curious to know how much we could make from just slightly reformatting content found elsewhere on the web though.
@MrGeneral
The last thing you said to me was that you had to attend a meeting, and never got back to me.
MrGeneral Hello SysAdminLEB
MrGeneral Here
MrGeneral What kind of articles are you looking for?
MrGeneral I'm pretty interested in interviewing famous people
MrGeneral hehe
MrGeneral in the IT field
MrGeneral News could also be an option
MrGeneral depends what you want to achieve.
SysAdminLEB well I want articles that people want to read instead of just offers
SysAdminLEB i'm open to all ideas
MrGeneral Give me half an hour
MrGeneral Ill get back to you
MrGeneral attending a fast meet
Do you want a job writing content for LEB? If so, I do have opportunity and can pay for the position.
Woah, we're in the same boat dude. I used to do well and then went bankrupt. I'm just not looking for a job since I've found being a NEET is actually okay, and my friends are slowly joining me since the economy isn't working.
Ooops, sorry!
Got it.
Will contact you again.
Trust me, I sent you several messages in Skype.
Give me a ball park figure for an article, I can write that shit for fun.
Hehehe, well... August was a terrible month for us.
We have the office bill paids and such. But... Social security is ruining our plan. We need to pay it for the last 8 months, so that's why we're quite a bit desperate to solve the issue.
Even though, I need to get a job, as José is getting some work but I am not.
We have quite a few big projects going on, the budget hasn't been approved yet, so, bad luck, you can say.
I wish you the best luck mate. I am positive that things can change.
For you Nekki, I will pay dozens of cents.
https://weworkremotely.com is a good place for remote work
I was being serious.
If you actually want some decent stuff, give me a ballpark figure per article.
Alright chap, whatever. Can't say I didn't try.

Well that takes the work out of it.
Your LinkedIn profile screams desperation, just thought you'd like to know.
But good luck all the same, the market for DevOps seems to be picking up right now.
Never heard about that website, I'm reading it right now.
Thank you @kt!
Thank you for your opinion @Brad, what would you change in my profile? I mean, what's giving you the impression that I'm desperate? (Although I am, but my LinkedIn hasn't been edited lately)
Yeah really, it's THE big thing where I work right now, everyone's gearing up for it in a very, very big way.
People with experience in getting DevOps running are going to be in very high demand in London for the next 12-18 months for sure.
Tagging the wrong Brad
Good luck with the job hunt!
I had opportunities to travel to London and get a job there. But... I love Portugal too much and due to health issues I cannot travel that far.
DevOp is something I love to do.
Sorry!
Thank you very much Alex
cut that crap:
nobody is gonna deny that you might be addicted to IT stuff from back then, and might have earned some bucks by doing stuff, but "working in the industry" ... aged 13? seriously?
that is a lot of overestimating yourself I'd say ;-) or you've really been j. nuggets back then? guess you wouldn't want to be in the same category like him, would you?
