I need your help; Applying for jobs today and tomorrow

Thumb it up! DeliciousSave this page
Mathieu Bourgie

Myself: Mathieu Bourgie

If you look carefully, at the top of the website, there’s now a new page.

Can you find it? No? Keep reading then.

While most of you probably consider me as an expert on computer hardware by now, a new visitor won’t or at least will question my credibility.

In order to make them feel comfortable, I’ve decided to create a new page where they see the opinion of others on the help and services that I have done: Testimonials

Applying for jobs:

As this post title says, I’ll be applying for jobs today and tomorrow. This is also another reason why I created the testimonials page.

Let me explain myself here:
In your usual job, you have a boss. When you leave said job, you can get a reference from your previous employer if you did good work. In my case, with the website, I’m working by myself, as a freelancer. You can say that I’m my own boss and that I choose my work along with my hours.

The problem with that is that I can’t be a reference for myself obviously.

Are you starting to understand why I created a testimonials page now?

Simply put, I did put the url of the testimonials page as a reference for this job.

How can you help?

You can help me simply by commenting here or on the testimonials page, about what you appreciate about the work that I’ve done so far on Hardware Revolution. Mention your favorite article/page, what I’ve done in the past that you’d like to see again, basically anything that you wish to share.

Thank you. I’ll make sure to pay back the favor to you with many more quality articles in the future ;)

What's next?

    In the short time I've been following your blog, Mathieu, I've been impressed with the depth of your knowledge. You've also shown an empathy that is rare in the blogosphere. When readers make comments and recommendations, you listen, thank them for the feedback, and when necessary adjust your builds based on their feedback.

    I hope to see you continuing your site for years to come. I recommend you highly to all my friends, and if I was hiring a tech guru for my company right now, you'd be the first candidate I'd talk to!

    Cheers,
    Terence
  • This blogger is always willing to help on any technical questions I have and good for intelligent conversation as well!
  • I, too, have been impressed by your helpful attitude. You are always professional, yet willing to lend a hand. Your insight as a source for a news article I wrote was also quite valuable. Your knowledge is impressive, and you always seem to know just how to use in a way that is beneficial to others.

    Thanks,
    Miranda
  • I will leave this short and simple. Your blog has helped me do one of the most complicated things (for me) in my technical life. Decide, and then build a computer. I had/have the knowledge on what goes into and what is needed for a decent build, but I am not very educated on whats rated what, and what is truly worth my cash. Reading and following your blog led me to pick, and then choose nearly everything for my computer. It was especially helpful, since I had a budget to keep to!
  • I've known Mathieu for some time now and while his knowledge of computer hardware has continued to astound me, I've been even more impressed with his personable, affable nature! He's a great friend to have, and if I were you, I'd hire him without hesitation!
  • May you succeed! I always like your articles, original and insightful. The best one was: A $2500 gaming computer that laughs at Crysis!

    I have found your site useful and understandable even for novices like myself. Clearly a person who is knowledgeable as well as articulate and thoughtful.

    When designing/building my own computer for the first time, I found this site. Mathieu's advice on what components to use was excellent, but he supported that advice with empirical evidence, which proved even more useful. I ended up building a modified version of the $1000 gaming rig, and am completely satisfied.
  • The articles are always interesting. They made me learn something new each time I spotted one.
