Freelance Programming

How does a loser 3rd year CS student get into online programming freelance stuff, with a mainly Java background?
It seems like everyone on UpWork just wants a new Uber, or a gambling website.

Why would you want to start as freelancer with no work experience?

That's fucking stupid. You should only be programming things that are useful to you then releasing them. Nobody wants your quick buck programs, Pajeet.

No luck getting an internship this summer, don't want to keep doing hospitality shit.

No.

>No.
Tell me this, Raj. Have you ever written anything worth some rupees? Do you really think anyone with an IQ higher than room temperature writes code for those bullshit bounty sites?

>Implying I'm actually Indian
How would you make money?

>internship
>working basicly for free

its 2k19, everyone is looking for IT devs.
Just use your social network and let someone sneak you into the company and get a real job.

its easy

The difficulty is that I have to return to uni in September for another year, so I'm not sure how likely anyone would be to hire me for a serious dev role.

i would ask around your college's career center, lot of companies look for cheap student labor, you'll be underpaid but not as bad as an internet freelancer

Java is enterprise/large corporations. Data science with java is something to look into. Also learn SQL and COBOL.
