Ukuqhubeka kwendaba .
2008. Inkinga yezomnotho yomhlaba wonke. Kubukeka sengathi, isisebenzi esizimele esisodwa esivela esifundazweni esijulile sihlangene ngani nakho? Kuvele ukuthi ngisho osomabhizinisi abancane nabaqalayo emazweni aseNtshonalanga badla imbuya ngothi. Futhi lawa kwakungamakhasimende ami aqondile futhi angaba khona. Phezu kwakho konke okunye, ekugcineni ngavikela iziqu zami zobungcweti enyuvesi futhi ngangingenayo eminye imisebenzi engangingayenza ngaphandle kokusebenza ngokukhululeka. Ngendlela, ngahlukana neklayenti lami lokuqala, elaletha imali engenayo njalo. Futhi ngemva kwakhe, ubuhlobo bami nalowo engangingaba umkami wesikhathi esizayo babhidlika. Konke kufana nalelo hlaya.
Kwafika “indlela emnyama”, ngesikhathi lapho isikhathi sethuba nokukhula kufanele ngabe sesifikile. Sekuyisikhathi lapho intsha enezifiso igijimela ukwakha umsebenzi futhi isebenze kanzima kwabahlanu, ikhushulwe ngesivinini sombani. Kimina kwaba ngenye indlela.
Impilo yami yaqhubeka ngedwa, ngokuhwebelana okuzimele kwe-oDesk nama-oda ayivelakancane. Ngangisahlala nabazali bami, nakuba ngangikwazi ukuziphilisa ngokuhlukana. Kodwa ngangingathandi ukuhlala ngedwa. Ngakho-ke, i-borscht kamama kanye namagremu ayikhulu kababa akhanyisa izinsuku ezimpunga.
Ngake ngahlangana nabangane bakudala basenyuvesi ukuze sixoxe ngempilo futhi sicobelelane ngezindaba. Inkampani ye-SKS evela Ngenze i-pivot kusuka kule ndaba futhi ngathuthela ku-freelancing. Manje u-Elon no-Alain, njengami, babehlezi ekhaya kuyi-computer, behola imali ukuze baphile. Yile ndlela esasiphila ngayo: ngaphandle kwemigomo, amathemba namathuba. Yonke into yayidlubulunda ngaphakathi kimi, ngangingavumelani neze nokwakwenzeka. Kube yiphutha lesistimu ekhanda lami.
Umzamo wokuqala wokushintsha okuthile kwakuyisevisi yewebhu yezinga elikhulu.
Okungukuthi, inethiwekhi yokuxhumana nabantu yokuthola umsebenzi nokwenza ukuxhumana. Ngamafuphi - i-LinkedIn ye-Runet. Yiqiniso, bengingazi nge-LinkedIn, futhi kwakungekho ama-analogue ku-RuNet. Imfashini ku-VKontakte isanda kufika ku-"Los Angeles" yami. Futhi ukuthola umsebenzi kwakunzima kakhulu. Futhi zazingekho izingosi ezijwayelekile kulesi sihloko ezazibonakala. Ngakho-ke, umbono wawunengqondo futhi, lapho ngifika okokuqala “ejimini,” ngalenga izisindo ezingamakhilogremu angama-50 ku-barbell nhlangothi zombili. Ngamanye amazwi: ngokungazi ukuthi ibhizinisi le-IT liyini nokuthi lingalakha kanjani, mina no-Elon saqala ukwakha i-LinkedIn ye-Runet.
Yebo ukuqaliswa kwehlulekile. Ngangazi kuphela ukusebenzisa i-C++/Delphi kudeskithophu. U-Elon wayesanda kuqala ukuthatha izinyathelo zakhe zokuqala ekuthuthukisweni kwewebhu. Ngakho-ke ngenza isakhiwo sewebhusayithi eDelphi futhi ngasikhipha. Ngemva kokukhokhela u-$700 wokuthuthukisa i-LinkedIn, ngangingazi ukuthi ngenzeni ngakho ngokulandelayo. Ngaleso sikhathi, inkolelo yayiyinto enjengale: masenze iwebhusayithi, siyibeke ku-inthanethi futhi siqale ukwenza imali.
Kuphela asizange sikucabangele ukuthi phakathi kwalezi zenzakalo ezintathu, kanye naphakathi nenqubo yazo, kwenzeka izinto ezincane eziyisigidi ezahlukene. Futhi, iwebhusayithi etholakala ku-inthanethi ayenzi imali iyodwa.
Freelancing
Kwaphela isikhathi eside ngibambelele kuklayenti lami lokuqala u-Andy, esasebenza naye isikhathi esingaphezu konyaka. Kodwa, njengoba ngibhale engxenyeni yokugcina, u-Andy wanquma ukuvala inkontileka buthule ngenkathi ngiseholidini. Futhi lapho efika, waqala ukusonta izintambo futhi akhokhe ithisipuni ngenyanga.
Ekuqaleni, wakhuphula izinga lami ku-oDesk laya ku-$19/hora, elalingaphezu kwesilinganiso ngaleso sikhathi. Abasebenza ngokuzimela abangomakadebona njengo-Samvel (indoda engilethe emsebenzini wamahhala) inenani elingu-$22/ihora, futhi bebengabokuqala emiphumeleni yosesho ye-Odessa. Le bhidi ephezulu yangibuyisela emuva lapho ngifuna i-oda lami elilandelayo.
Naphezu kwakho konke, kwadingeka ngibhalele u-Andy ukuthi ngizofuna elinye iklayenti. Le fomethi yokubambisana ayingifanele: "Lungisa inqwaba yeziphazamisi futhi wengeze izici ngentengo ephindwe ka-5." Futhi kwakungeyona imali engaka, kodwa iqiniso lokuthi inganekwane mayelana nomtshali-zimali omkhulu onesikhwama semali ehlombe lakhe yaphenduka ithanga. Imakethe yayingadingi iphrojekthi, noma, cishe, u-Andy akakwazanga ukuyithengisa lapho idingeka khona. Cela okungenani abasebenzisi bokuqala, njll.
Ngokubona ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokubheka i-oda elisha, ngaphuthuma ukuthumela izicelo zomsebenzi. Ama-oda amabili okuqala, ngemuva kuka-Andy, ngehlulekile ngempumelelo. Ngijwayele ukuthi ungasebenza ngendlela othanda ngayo, futhi ekupheleni kwesonto kuzoba nesamba esiyindilinga ku-akhawunti yakho, angizange ngijabule kakhulu ngethemba lokuqala kabusha. Okungukuthi, thatha iphrojekthi encane yenani elingaguquki -> zuza ukwethenjwa kwekhasimende -> shintshela enkokhelweni eyanele kakhudlwana. Ngakho-ke, esinyathelweni sesibili noma sesithathu, ngahlukana. Kuphakathi kokuthi bengivilapha kakhulu ukusebenzela ukwethenjwa, noma iklayenti belingafuni ukungikhokhela inani elimisiwe lika-$19. Ngangidabukile umcabango wokwehlisa izinga libe ku-$12/ihora noma ngaphansi. Kodwa yayingekho enye indlela yokuphuma. Bekungekho sidingo ku-niche yami yesoftware yedeskithophu. Kanye nenhlekelele.
Amagama ambalwa mayelana ne-oDesk yaleyo minyaka (2008-2012)
Ngokunganakwa, njengebhawodi elivela eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, ukuhwebelana kwamasheya kwaqala ukugcwala izakhamizi zamaRiphabhulikhi etiye nabanye abantu base-Asiya. Okungukuthi: India, Philippines, China, Bangladesh. Okungavamile kakhulu: I-Asia Ephakathi: i-Iran, i-Iraq, i-Qatar, njll. Kwakuwuhlobo oluthile lokuhlasela kwe-Zerg kusuka ku-StarCraft, ngamasu asheshayo. I-India iyodwa ikhiqize futhi isaqhubeka nokuphothula abafundi be-IT abayizigidi eziyi-1.5 minyaka yonke. Ngiyaphinda futhi: amaNdiya ayisigidi nesigamu! Futhi-ke, bambalwa kulaba abathweswe iziqu abathola umsebenzi ngokushesha lapho behlala khona. Nali ibhola elinjalo. Bhalisa ku-oDesk futhi uthole okuphindwe kabili kunase-Bangalore yakho.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi lwezivimbi, kwenzeka omunye umcimbi omkhulu - i-iPhone yokuqala yakhululwa. Futhi amaMelika amabhizinisi asheshe aqaphela indlela yokwenza imali esheshayo.
Kunjalo, ngokukhulula uhlelo lwakho lwe-iPhone lwama-kopecks ama-3 emakethe engenalutho futhi ekhula ngokushesha. Kugobile, kutshekile, ngaphandle kokuklama - konke kugoqiwe.
Ngakho-ke, ngokukhishwa kwe-iPhone 2G yokuqala, isigaba esengeziwe Sokuthuthukiswa Kweselula sivele ngokushesha ku-oDesk, esavele sagcwala izicelo zokwenza isicelo se-iPhone.
Ukuthola le divayisi ne-Mac kwaba umsebenzi onzima kimi. Ezweni lakithi babembalwa abantu ababenalezi zinsimbi, kanti ezifundazweni babezwa nje ngokuba khona kwalesi simangaliso sobuchwepheshe. Kodwa njengenye indlela, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi ngathenga i-HTC Desire esekelwe ku-Android 2.3 futhi ngafunda ukuyenzela izicelo. Okufike kwasiza kamuva.
Kodwa akulona iphuzu. Ikhono lami eliyinhloko bekuseyi-C++. Ngokubona ukuthi kwakukhona ama-oda ambalwa e-C++, futhi kwavela izikhangiso ezengeziwe ze-C# .NET, ngakhasela kancane kustakhi sobuchwepheshe be-Microsoft. Ukwenza lokhu, bengidinga incwadi ethi “C# Self-Tutorial” kanye nephrojekthi eyodwa encane kulolu limi lokuhlela. Kusukela lapho bengihlezi kakhulu kuSharpe, nginganyakazi ndawo.
Ngabe sengihlangana namaphrojekthi amakhulu ku-C ++ naku-Java, kepha bengihlala ngikhetha i-C#, njengoba ngiyibheka njengolufaneleka kakhulu, futhi muva nje, ulimi olusetshenziswa umhlaba wonke kunoma yimiphi imisebenzi ku-niche yami.
oDesk ngoFebhuwari 2008
Ukukhishwa kokuqala okukhulu
Kuvamise ukwenzeka ukuthi uma ungumthuthukisi osebenza ngaphandle noma ozisebenzelayo, ungase ungalokothi ubone ukuthi uhlelo lwakho lusetshenziswa kanjani empilweni yangempela. Eqinisweni, kumaphrojekthi angaphezu kuka-60 engawaqeda njengomsebenzi ozimele, ngabona kudayiswa angu-10. Kodwa angizange ngibone ukuthi abanye abantu basebenzisa kanjani indalo yami. Ngakho-ke, ngemva kokudlula eminyakeni yokucindezeleka ka-2008-2010, lapho cishe kungekho miyalelo, ngathatha inkunzi ngezimpondo ngo-2011.
Nakuba ngangingenaso isidingo sokuhlala ngisebenza futhi ngihola imali. Kwakukhona izindlu, kukhona ukudla. Ngadayisa imoto njengoba yayingasadingeki. Kufanele ngiye kuphi njenge-freelancer? Okusho ukuthi, nganginayo nemali yanoma yikuphi ukuzijabulisa. Kungase kubonakale njengokucabanga komhubhe - kungaba umsebenzi noma ukudlala. Kodwa ngaleso sikhathi, sasingazi kangcono. Besingazi ukuthi kungenzeka ukuphila ngendlela ehlukile: ukuhamba, ukuthuthukisa, ukudala amaphrojekthi ethu. Futhi ngokuvamile, umhlaba unqunyelwe kuphela ukwazi kwakho. Lokhu kuqonda kwafika kamuva, lapho amazinga aphansi angu-4 ephiramidi kaMaslow enelisekile.
UMaslow wayeqinisile
Kodwa okokuqala, kwakudingeka kuthathwe isinyathelo emuva. Ngemva kokuphokophela amaphrojekthi amancane iminyaka embalwa, nginqume ukwehlisa izinga ku-$ 11 / ihora futhi ngithole okuthile okuhlala isikhathi eside.
Mhlawumbe bekunenombolo ephakeme kuphrofayili, kodwa ngiyakhumbula impela ngalobobusuku basentwasahlobo lapho uKaiser engqongqoza emnyango wami weSkype.
UKaiser wayengumnikazi wenkampani encane yama-antivirus eYurophu. Yena ngokwakhe wayehlala e-Austria, futhi iqembu lahlakazeka emhlabeni wonke. ERussia, Ukraine, India. I-CTO yahlala eJalimane futhi yaqapha ngekhono lolu hlelo, nakuba yayishaya sengathi ibukele. Ngendlela, ekuqaleni kwawo-XNUMX, uKaiser wanikezwa umklomelo wombuso ngegalelo lakhe lokusungula ekuthuthukiseni amabhizinisi amancane. Umqondo wakhe wokwakha iqembu labasebenzi abakude wawungavamile ngempela ekuqaleni kwawo-XNUMX.
Umuntu wethu uzocabangani ngalento? “Yebo, lolu uhlobo oluthile lomkhonyovu,” cishe kuyoba umcabango wakhe wokuqala. Kodwa-ke, cha, inkampani kaKaiser isihlale iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-6 futhi yakwazi ukuncintisana nama-giants afana ne-ESET, Kaspersky, Avast, McAfee nabanye.
Ngesikhathi esifanayo, inzuzo yenkampani yayingama-euro ayingxenye yesigidi kuphela ngonyaka. Konke kwakuncike kuMoya oNgcwele kanye nokholo ekusaseni eliqhakazile. I-Kaiser ayikwazanga ukukhokha ngaphezu kwe-$ 11 / ihora, kodwa yabeka umkhawulo wamahora angu-50 ngesonto, okwakwanele ukuba ngiqale.
Kumele futhi kuqashelwe ukuthi i-CEO ayizange ifake ingcindezi kunoma ubani, futhi yanikeza umbono kamalume onomusa ohambisa izipho. Okufanayo ngeke kushiwo nge-CTO, engaba nethuba lokuhlangana nayo kamuva nje. Futhi sebenza eduze kakhulu ngesikhathi sokukhululwa ebusuku.
Ngakho, ngaqala ukusebenza ukude enkampanini ye-antivirus. Umsebenzi wami bekuwukubhala kabusha ingemuva le-antivirus eyayisetshenziswa emikhiqizweni eminingi yenkampani. (Imininingwane yobuchwepheshe ingatholakala ku ).
Kwase kuzalwa owami wokuqala , mayelana nokujabulisa kanye nezinzuzo ze-C++, esalenga endaweni yesibili kuhabhu yegama elifanayo.
Yiqiniso, iphutha alikho ngethuluzi ngokwalo, kodwa ngomlutha wezidakamizwa owabhala injini yangaphambili ye-antivirus. Yaphahlazeka, yaphambana, yayinemicu eminingi ekhanda lonke, futhi kwakunzima ukuyihlola. Akugcinanga nje ngokuthi ufake inqwaba yamagciwane emshinini wakho ukuze uhlolwe, kodwa isivikeli magciwane kwadingeka ukuthi singaphahlazeki.
Kodwa kancane kancane, ngaqala ukuhlanganyela kulokhu kuthuthukiswa. Nakuba kungekho okwakucacile, njengoba ngangenza ingxenye eyodwa esetshenziswa ezinye izinhlelo. Ngobuchwepheshe, iyilabhulali ye-DLL enohlu lwemisebenzi ethunyelwe. Akekho owangichazela ukuthi ezinye izinhlelo zizozisebenzisa kanjani. Ngakho ngabuyisela yonke into ngokwami.
Lokhu kwaqhubeka cishe unyaka, kwaze kwaba yilapho iqhude eligazingiwe liluma i-CTO futhi saqala ukulungiselela ukukhululwa. Ngokuvamile lokhu kulungiselelwa kwenzeka ebusuku. Uhlelo lwasebenza emshinini wami, kodwa hhayi ohlangothini lwakhe. Kwabe sekuvela ukuthi wayene-SSD drive (okuyivelakancane ngalezo zinsuku), futhi i-algorithm yami yokuskena ngokushesha yagcwalisa yonke inkumbulo ngokufunda amafayela ngokushesha.
Ekugcineni sethula futhi isithwebuli sami safakwa emshinini ongamashumi ezinkulungwane emhlabeni jikelele. Kwakuwumuzwa ongachazeki, njengokungathi wenze okuthile okubalulekile. Waletha into ewusizo kulo mhlaba. Imali ayisoze yathatha indawo yalo mzwelo.
Ngokwazi kwami, injini yami isebenza kule antivirus kuze kube namuhla. Futhi njengefa, ngishiye ngemuva ikhodi eyireferensi edalwe ngokuvumelana nazo zonke izincomo ezivela encwadini ethi "Perfect Code" "Refactoring" kanye nochungechunge lwezincwadi "C ++ for Professionals".
Ekuphethweni
Enye incwadi edumile ithi: “Ihora elimnyama kunawo wonke lingaphambi kokuntwela kokusa.” Yilokhu okwenzeka kimi ngalezo zinsuku. Ukusuka ekuphelelweni yithemba ngokuphelele ngo-2008 kuya ekusungulweni kwenkampani yami ye-IT ngo-2012. Ngaphezu kukaKaiser, owayelokhu engenisa u-$500/ngesonto, ngizitholele elinye iklayenti elivela e-States.
Kwakunzima ukumenqaba, ngoba wanikela ngemali engaba ngu-22 $/ihora ngomsebenzi othakazelisayo. Ngaphinde ngaqhutshwa umgomo wokuqongelela imali yokuqala yokuqala kanye nokutshala imali, kungaba ngezindawo ezithengiswayo noma ebhizinisini lami. Ngakho-ke, imali engenayo yanda, imigomo yabekwa futhi kwaba nogqozi lokuhamba.
Ngemva kokuqeda iphrojekthi kaKaiser futhi ngehlisa ijubane ngomunye umsebenzi, ngaqala ukulungiselela ukwethula ukuqalisa kwami. Benginemali engaba ngu-$25k ku-akhawunti yami, eyanele ukudala i-prototype futhi ngibheke ukutshalwa kwezimali okwengeziwe.
Ngaleyo minyaka, kwakunesiphithiphithi sangempela mayelana nokuqalwa eRussia, Ukraine, nasemhlabeni wonke. Inkohliso yadalwa ukuthi ungaceba ngokushesha ngokuthenga into entsha. Ngakho-ke, ngaqala ukuthuthela kule ndlela, ngifunde amabhulogi akhethekile, ngihlangane nabantu abavela esixukwini.
Yile ndlela engahlangana ngayo no-Sasha Peganov, ngewebhusayithi yeZuckerberg Call (okukhona manje ), owangethula kumsunguli we-VKontakte kanye nomtshali-zimali. Ngaqasha iqembu, ngathuthela enhloko-dolobha futhi ngaqala ukwakha i-prototype ngisebenzisa izimali zami kanye nokutshalwa kwezimali okwengeziwe. Engizokhuluma ngakho kabanzi engxenyeni elandelayo.
Kuzoqhubeka ...
