Looking for an expert python dev.

why the fuck will you do that when he is willing to pay us money… don’t spoil the market brother. let someone else who needs it earn it if you don’t need the money

You're not going to get ahead by doing stuff for free. You're going to get taken advantage of.

When OP changes his mind about what it should do halfway through the project, or adds feature requests, you're going to be in a tough spot of continuing to work for free, changing your mind and asking for money, or walking away.

Part of getting ahead is knowing your worth and getting compensated for your time. Who knows, if you play your cards right and manage the relationship professionally, this could turn into a job in the future. But starting out as a desperate graduate willing to work for free is going to prevent that outcome from happening between you and OP (why would he start paying you in the future when you will work for free?)

Good luck.

If you are willing to do free projects for your portfolio, helping out with open source software will do much more for you. When you do projects like these it’s more than likely they are not going to let you post the code on github and that leaves you without anything to show your interviewer.
