I am a 23 year old student attending university. My hobbies are pentesting, programming and gaming. Ever since I was a young teen, I had dreamed of starting an online business.

Is there any spots available? I have my application ready but i'm unsure if it would be worth posting at this time

EDIT: Don't wanna spam this thread, but I saw your post below. Thanks, i'll be submitting my application shortly.

[Fʀᴀɴᴋɪᴇ]

I was going to apply but iHydra hates me so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

While I can't say the news is exceedingly dull,
as of late, I've observed, it's gone into a lull.
In order to get through to readers' thick skulls,
I think I've contrived a solution.

While not to intrude on your fine paradigm
I hope you'll consider my offer in time;
Allow me to grace your plain journal with rhyme.
A small but sincere contribution.

A weekly digest of the best and the worst
Delightfully worded, yet tastefully terse
Accordingly headlined: "This week in verse"
An addition for your institution.

I hope you'll consider my one proposition;
My stanzas each week as a prime acquisition.
You'll message, I trust, about the position.
For your own viewership restitution.

[Fʀᴀɴᴋɪᴇ]

Still go for it..

In addition to that I'm not ub3r and thats a strict requirement

[Replies in Rhyme]

Become Ub3r and you'll be invited right away. I can't add you otherwise, it's a strict requirement. I'd love to have you on the team though, would be nice to have a poem section - brings a new 'taste' to the weekly news.

While I give you my thanks for your kind invitation,
My wallet and time here shall not run amuck.
I must duly decline, for I've no inclination
To pledge to this forum my twenty-five bucks.

[Balding]

The terrible feeling of not being Ub3r.

Inveno's Writer Application

• List up to 5 roles you would like to apply for:
  1. Headlines
  2. Interviews
  3. Site News
  4. Hacking News
  5. Tech News
  

• What skills related to writing do you have?
  I'm very creative and descriptive when it comes to writing; a couple years previous to now, I ran a Fiverr gig, in which I would write pieces of descriptive text for company & personal websites, which was a huge success for me at that time in my life. I've used my persuasion skills to influence people in a positive way and I'm often appraised on my ability to do so - I believe this specific skill may assist potential interviews if I'm to be offered the role. I'm also occasionally appraised for my ability to think on the spot of "witty" jokes or puns, which may be beneficial for the headlines role.
  

• From 1-5, how well do you read English?
  5
  
• From 1-5, how well do you write in English?
  5
  
• From 1-5, how well do you speak in English?
  5

• What languages do you know, and how fluent are you in each?
  I've never been one for learning another language, nor have I ever needed to, so English would be the only language I speak and I'm extremely fluent in it.
  

• In 5 sentences, no less or more, tell me about yourself.
  I'm very caring for others, and want everyone around me to succeed.
  My biggest aspiration in life is to become wealthy enough to sit back and do whatever I want at any time with no worries at all.
  I'm passionate to learn more about anything that interests me; I see knowledge as something of great value.
  I love teaching other people things that they are passionate to know.
  I enjoy talking with people about life and what's going on in the world and in specific communities.
  

• Favorite Book?
  It's a tough question... I enjoy books that teach, rather than fiction and I've learned an awful lot from books, so trying to credit which one taught me the most is unsatisfying and just a generally hard question to answer... I really enjoyed "The 5 Rules of Thought" written by Mary T. Browne, however, the book that has me hooked right now is also awesome and may just push Browne's book out of the way...
