I need some insights about getting job opportunities as a bubble developer

Questions

I started learning NoCode about 16 months ago by performing many exercises using various NoCode tools, and quickly fell in love with Bubble and focused on it. Since then, I have developed my skills in Bubble using the free plans by building many apps that contain many advanced features. I have tried to clone a number of the features found on sites such as Facebook and Coursera, and I built applications that contain chatbots and Fine Tuning, and other applications that contain Stripe and other integrations. Then I started learning HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build plugins when I felt that I was hitting the limits of what could be built in Bubble without code and there are still features I want to build.

Recently, I joined an Etsy cloning bootcamp and got the following comment from the trainer: “Salem! As always I would give you a 10/5 for this. Well done. Mashallah you are always surprising us with new and innovative ideas done on Bubble. We are so happy to have you with us! You are taking bubble to the next level. Well done and keep it up man! :rocket::+1:”

At the moment, I think my skills in Bubble are at a really good level, but I am still confused about getting job opportunities or receiving projects from real clients. I thought that working with an agency could show me how work is done in the real world, but I still don’t know how to make my way to it. Some other difficulties relate to my average level of English language skills.

Do you have ideas or tips you can share with me?

If you haven’t come across it already, read this post, and when you are done, read it again a couple/few more times. :slight_smile:

Also, something that sticks out in your post is you say you have developed your skills using free plans. If you have never developed on a paid plan, you haven’t worked with features that you will definitely need to know if you want to get hired. Oh, and for your own good and the good of the entire Bubble community, please learn about privacy rules and use them to secure the data in every app you develop.

Thank you @mikeloc
Some times I use free Template plan so I can use some backend workflows, but yes I think that some features need real projects to know about.
