🚀 Thinking of Starting My Freelance QA Journey – Need Your Suggestions!
After office hours, I want to utilize my free time by exploring freelance opportunities in QA (Testing). With hands-on experience in Automation (Selenium, Appium), API Testing (Rest Assured), and Manual Testing, I am eager to take up new projects.
💡 But before jumping in, I’d love to hear from you!
📢 If you’re an experienced freelancer or have insights on platforms, client acquisition, or managing freelance work alongside a full-time job – please share your suggestions in the comments!
Your guidance can help me (and many others) kick-start this journey the right way. Looking forward to your valuable inputs!

What’s your pricing strategy? I’ve seen QA freelancers struggle initially to figure out how much to charge.

Check Reddit freelancing subs. They often have direct leads for QA projects from small businesses.
Freelance communities on Discord are also a hidden gem for gig hunting. Worth exploring!

I started freelancing in QA a while back, and one key lesson I learned, client communication is everything. Be clear about deliverables and timelines to avoid burnout. Do you plan to focus on short term gigs or long term projects?
