So now that you have gotten this far I am assuming you know what OrangeSlyce is… but just in case let me make it simple. OrangeSlyce is your new meal ticket (seriously)! We are an online service that matches talented college students with small businesses that have projects and work they need done. After posting a project, small businesses are immediately matched with the ideal student worker meeting their needs. Students have the opportunity to gain experience and earn money on the side.
Below is a simple step by step guide for a student on how to use OrangeSlyce to its fullest potential:
Step 1: Enter www.orangeslyce.com into your web browser; continue to click “Students Click Here” and the link conveniently takes you the student registration page. Quickly fill in the prompted information (I say quickly because the sooner you are done the sooner you can find a project!)
Step 2: Go to your email, and open the email from OrangeSlyce.com. Then follow the directions by clicking on the link.
Step 3: Congratulate yourself… you are one step closer to being employed!
Now that you are a registered user of OrangeSlyce lets start job hunting!
I would first start by updating your profile. You can do this by clicking on “profile” and then “edit profile”. It is very important to list your year in college, major, and any skills you may have.
The next step would be to click on “projects” and start looking through the listed projects. When you have found a project that looks like a good fit click on the blue title to read more about the project (including how much it pays!). If the project looks appetizing click “apply”. You can then type in a small cover letter letting your potential employer know why you will kick butt at this position, and then click “send away”! From this point you will have to wait and see if the employer is interested in calling you for an interview.
Feel free to apply for all the projects that seem like a good fit, and tell your friends! Also if you know any small business owners who you think could benefit from OrangeSlyce tell them to look at next week’s blog “How to use OrangeSlyce to Benefit your Small Business.“
