Hey guys,
As maybe a few on this forum know I'm an (aspiring?) software developer who's looking to create a business based around software. Anyhow, there is a specific role at a specific small business located near me that would accelerate my mastery of my niche. But I just don't know how to get the job. To me and most people I know, it seems like getting somebody in SPECIFIC to hire you is next to impossible. I'm ridiculously motivated to make it happen though.
I'm wondering if anyone has specific advice on how I can persuade the management into interviewing me and bringing me on board. This isn't a huge, bureaucratic corporation. Just a small business located downtown that I can see myself bringing value to.
Do I just use copy to sell them? Would that work? Just using sales copy and writing about my skills? What can I do to grab their attention and say "Let's interview this guy?". Honestly, any advice would be useful to me. Especially from you employers out there. I'd be willing to do a job that is generally compensated at $40/hr in the market at minimum wage if that's what it took. I'm there for the growth.
If anybody can help me get an interview at this business, I will be incredibly grateful.
