Hi VJ Member's,

I'm on K-1 Visa and applied for EAD yesterday. Can anyone suggest me good sites to work from home/freelance or any job consultants in Atlanta for freelance work. I tried various suvey sites also but it is really hard to earn money from all these site, actually no one pays in real. Similarly i tried to bid on various freelancing sites like freelancer.com, vworker.com, elance.com etc. but not succeeded. I would be thankful to all of you, if anyone can help me on this.

Thanks to all for reading my post.

It'll be hard to get a job without proof you can work legally, and EAD can take a couple of months to get.

Try craigslist.

You may consider to add more skills, you may have to learn more things ( HTML 5, CSS, Javascript, JQuery ). It would be PLUS if you can learn PHP, and can have a good hand with WordPress CMS.

In such competition market, companies may not hire to someone if he just knows Photoshop. They are looking for a guy who knows more than Photoshop.

Of course! Graphic Field has a great market! But you must have to be very creative with Graphics, then you can create the stuff, and sell it online ( graphicriver.net )- Great Marketplace to sell graphics stuff.
