Flexibility in work at Turing allows me to enjoy life more, says Nigeria’s Joy in her Turing.com review.

In this blog post, we spoke to Nigeria’s Joy, who has been working with Turing since December 2020, about how she thinks about Turing as an organization and what she likes/dislikes about us.

Joy’s Turing.com review:

Speaking about the change that she has noticed in her life after joining Turing, Joy said, “With Turing, I’m able to maintain sufficient work-life balance, engage with hobbies and a lot of personal tasks with ease.”

On being asked what motivated her to select Turing as her place of work, Joy mentioned that she was seeking new and better opportunities that would help to grow as a professional working with an international organization. And when she came to know about the boundaryless concept, she happily accepted the offer.

Joy also touched upon the compensation part as she gave her review about the salary structure. She happily mentioned that Turing offers excellent compensation and ‘definitely better than local salaries’ in her vicinity.

But a workplace is not just about money. When asked whether she feels valued as a professional at Turing, Joy replied saying her journey with Turing has so far been splendid with no signs of negativity at all.

On the subject of equal opportunity to women, Joy said, “At Turing, the opportunities are endless for both genders.” I’ll always recommend Turing to my friends, she said.

Finally, summing up her journey so far at Turing, she gave us a 10 out of 10.

Why I Gave up Freelancing after Discovering Turing

If you’re sick of freelancing and want to take your career to the next level, check out Turing for remote software jobs. I did, and I’ll never freelance again

I had been freelancing for a few years, and let me tell you: being a freelancer is tough. It’s hard to get a gig, deadlines are tight, and getting paid is a continual challenge.

After exploring almost all the freelancing websites out there (Guru, UpWork, Freelancing.com), I found I had huge competition, was only able to secure low hourly rates, and ended up working with demanding customers that knew little or nothing about how a mobile app or a web app is done. This meant lots of headaches and compensation that didn’t account for the fact I frequently ended up being both the designer and the developer, for the price of one!

This used to drive me nuts!

When I realized that those places wouldn’t give me what I wanted – and deserved – I went ahead and started to look for some clients on my own. I built a fancy website, enhanced my LinkedIn profile, and started a blog, in the hopes that (fingers crossed!) I could find the jobs I needed.

What I didn’t know is that this was just half of it. I still needed to get paid for the jobs I delivered, and most people wouldn’t pay me until they thought their product was done, but their product was NEVER done because they wouldn’t stop adding new features, often while refusing to pay for the additional work.

In other words, I was working really hard but still struggling to make good money.

That was before I discovered Turing. I’ll be honest; it takes some time to pass their tests. And if you’re not a skilled developer, you’re going to find out that their qualification exams are no joke. But if you’re experienced and talented, you’ll find that the time you invest in getting qualified for Turing’s platform is well worth the time you spend upfront.

I’ve been working for Turing over the last year now, and I’ll never go back to the struggle of freelancing again.

At Turing, I got “matched” to an American tech company and started to work only two weeks after the interview process. I’m integrated with a team of really good (and professional) people who treat me fairly and are always happy to help and share their knowledge. The money is sent directly to my bank account and always on time! I know it almost sounds too good to be true, but it’s not. If you’re looking for a remote software job and good at front-end, back-end, full-stack, React, Node, Angular, Swift, Python, or any of the nearly 100 skills supported on Turing’s platform, you owe it to yourself to do what I did. Take their tests, get an interview, then start getting paid what you’re worth.

But don’t take my word for it. Visit https://turing.com/jobs and see it for yourself! Working at Turing is a life-changing experience, and I’m looking forward to meeting you here. ?
