How to win these jobs

  1. Show something you shipped with the same stack

    Link a live product, repository or short case study that used the technologies in the post. This week clients in this category asked most for Penetration Testing, Network Security, Information Security.

  2. Ask one sharp question

    Name a risk or an unclear requirement from the description and ask about it. One precise technical question proves more than a list of skills.

  3. Propose a small first milestone

    Offer a paid discovery step, an audit or a first milestone with a clear deliverable. It lowers the client's risk and gets the contract started sooner.

  4. Check the client before spending Connects

    Look at payment verification, hire rate and past spend. A client who has posted many jobs and hired nobody rarely changes on your proposal.
