I spend a lot of time on Twitter helping people as much as I can and I never ask for anything in return. Now it I need to ask for help. I quit a stable job a couple of months ago to work at a startup. I was told yesterday that the startup isn't able to pay me any longer.
UPDATE: I want to thank everyone truly from the bottom of my heart. I’m sorry if I didn’t get back to everyone. The response to this tweet was amazing. It came at a bad time since we were a couple of days away from our daughter’s birthday party.
Between the response to the tweet, family in town, planning and executing a birthday party, etc it has been a VERY stressful couple of weeks.
I hope that no one thought I was being ungrateful. There were probably 200 leads coming in per day and once I started interviewing at a few of them most of my day was spent either answering emails, filling out applications, or talking to people on the phone.
Some positions weren’t the right fit, “no I don’t know what a breadth first search is😂”, and some were great offers that would require a move or more travel than I am capable of.
I latched on to a particular position that was a great fit and was exactly what I was looking for. I’m going to make a new tweet announcing the offer I accepted but I wanted to thank everyone and let everyone know that I’ve found a job. Thank you.
Additionally in the spirit of “paying it forward” and helping the community I love so much I’m going to tweet a call for people looking for jobs. There were probably close to 1000 leads thrown my way and I want to pass those one so be on the lookout for that.
So happy you found something so quickly! That's quite the speedy turnaround. I'm currently on the hunt for opportunities and am always happy for a signal boost if I can get one 🙂.
sure please do that I'm also look out for the remote job for sometime now
Portland OR here! I have a good resume with a background in Front End web dev and Help desk. Could really use a job.
Holy cow! Us Tim's gotta stick together... Jus'sayin' *wink wink
