Where to find Unity freelancers? Huge problem.
Where do people find skilled unity programmers?
the forum/jobs site is not much good
http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/175906-PAID-WORK-Unity-iOS-Android-Prime31-FACEBOOK
freelancer com and the rest are useless
it seems very difficult to find skilled, experienced unity freelancers.
you'd think with the economic crisis, Brussels taking over Cyprus etc people would be looking for work.
Can anyone advise on how you make your business work, where to find experienced unity freelancers??
In all other technical/programming fields, I know we can always find people. It just seems really difficult to find experienced unity freelancers. What is the solution, any ideas? Cheers
ideas from below...
(sparka) deeply search the Asset Store sellers for talent (ie, other than the top 10 already rich and famous)
(lighting ) do a deeper, intense search of the forum/jobs page . probably a good idea
the search is again broken on this site today, what a shame. I can't even search on "Facebook" for goodness sake :O
Also browsing the prime31 website I notice of course it says they aren't available but i'd send an e-mail off to them asking if they have someone they could recommend.
Perhaps they have a forum regular or something they think could help you.
since they are full up anyways they probably wouldnt take issue with throwing work to someone else
(i know you posted on the forums but the actual developers may be of more assistance)
From experience I work by the philosophy of if you want something you are the best guy to get it.
But I agree. The forums can be lacking in skilled programmers, but that is not to say that they are not there.
$$anonymous$$ike at Prime31 built something for me last year - but it was a utility for iOS that I needed - at the time they weren't taking major projects
yea it looks like they've gone even further though.
That is judging by whats marked out they went from taking everything to not taking major projects but ask and we'll help out for small stuff. To sorry not even the small stuff.
@whydo ..dude $$anonymous$$ike doesn't do nuthin' any more. It would be like asking Paul $$anonymous$$cCartney to write a jungle you know? ;-/ Heh !!

May be you should search for higher KARMA people on the forum and ask them directly for the same......as per my understanding i have mentioned some of the GENIUS of the forum here.....
Hope this will HELP you @Fattie ......
.........
LOL @whydo ...!!
$$anonymous$$aul - you're absolutely right. It's a good idea but:
The problem is, the top 20 "karma" people on this list are already all rich and famous.
It's a huge problem.
Like Woody Allen said "Any club that would have me, I wouldn't want to be a part of it" :)
BTW you're quite right, other than me (drunk moron idiot) it is amazing how much talent and intelligence has been attracted to the Unity "answers" web site.
I know the top ten people, in many fields of human endeavour. The top ten people un Unity are really smart. Usually the top ten people in various fields of human endeavour are bozos :-)
Seriously I would really like to work with some of the people on this site. I've learned huge amounts from just answering questions on here with you folks.
In the past, high $$anonymous$$arma meant you were answering unknown Q's with something you'd learned the hard way. It was probably a decent indicator of something. But for the past several years this has been a beginner help site, where most $$anonymous$$arma comes from answering the same easy Q's as newer users ask them.

yea ask fattie :P also i'm on that list yay!!! :P
But in all seriousness i'd e-mail the people in the unity asset store who have made a few successful assets and the comments section rates the programs as useful and the code as well documented.
that's really not a bad idea dude. "probe the asset store"
Dude also remember though: note my other comment above.
All the A$$anonymous$$AZING people on the asset store are rich and famous already.
EVERYONE wants to hire Dinesh and Desaro. I'd give them any amount of of money instantly, anyone would. But they're already in the "famous and rich" category. They're the superstars of the field. So again it's like in my earlier comment above dude. It's tough.
Your general suggestion - scope Asset store - is great though.
also don't forget that anyone that is too famous to do it might not do it but have a recommendation if you ask.
I stated that about asking for one from the Prime31 plugin people but you can send an email to Dinesh and Desaro as well asking if they just know someone.
Dinesh or Desaro might themselves have been in the same boat of wanting someone to freelance up some code but they might have found someone.
So prime31 people, asset store superstars and if that doesn't work go into maybe freelancer.com stars asking for a lead. I'd think most people would be happy to be viewed as someone worthy of giving a recommendation and would give you a lead if they had one.
i already put a notice on the P31 forum FWIW ... yeah you're right bug people for leads .. true

In my opinion, you are forced to search either freelancer.com or Unity job forum asking people there about experience and finished projects. Recommendations from other team-members would be also helpful.
I appreciate your taking the time to answer. unfortunately I find that getafreelancer.com is not much good
You make a good point that a "deep probe" of the damn forum site may be the best hope.
tough!

When I'm checking freelancer.com , upwork etc. , I've never seen a project with a good budget (people who want a game for 150$ awh come on :D ). Sadly (or not), there is a minimal wage per hour in Belgium :)
If you've a decent budget, you should find people :)
