Hey HN,

I have been contracting part time for the past few years now, always at $50-70/hr.

It recently occurred to me that my salaried rate is already at about $65/hr plus amazing benefits and many paid holidays. I’d guess my total comp would be closer to $80/hr if I added everything together.

In the past I’ve found clients on Upwork but it was pretty terrible and the clients were cheap.

I tried going on Arc and got verified, etc. but they only ever send full time jobs.

Does anyone have advice on finding part time freelance jobs at a decent rate, like $120+/hr?

I’m a US citizen, live in the US, etc. Full stack Python/Node/PHP dev so there should be plenty of demand…
